You raise an interesting point AA about why Nik is so widely disliked here. I think a couple of his answers reveal why this is the case. Firstly he points to the fact that he needs no validation from others and cares little about other people's opinions. These are notably psychopathic personality traits - a lack of concern about others and what they think - combined with narcissistic traits that overestimate one's own intelligence and abilities (grandiosity). And secondly, his lack of empathy and understanding as to why animals should have a protected right to be killed in a humane fashion rather than a cruel way - and the nonsense he spouts around this - is a real character giveaway. He has a definite "deportment" problem, in the way he carries himself, that I suspect is not going to change any time soon to improve his standing in the popularity stakes.
