Q. At what point does social assertiveness become aggression?
A: Maybe posting the same question [which appeared in the OP] over and over and over again ~ as you have done with the one above ~ is some kind of weird online "aggression" on your part and if "social assertiveness" is your excuse for doing it, then so be it.

A: They most likely wouldn't, Grampy Bobby.

Q: Should Labour in the UK offer a distinct alternative vision of governance that might keep them out of power for a generation, or should they consciously move closer to the platform that has beaten them two elections in a row?

A: I think it may be a fine line rather than terrifyingly thin.

Q: Is top class scientific talent being used to ensure that mobile phone batteries don't last too long and their owners therefore have to replace them more often (and expensively) than might otherwise be necessary.

A. UK News is seldom analyzed in depth on USA News Media.

Q. "They most likely wouldn't..." To whom do you refer as "the next person who wouldn't say he/she reads?"

A: I don't recall the first stereo music I heard using headphones but the first stereo music I heard was a piece by Tchaikovsky (1812 Overture) on a Seabreeze (I think that was it's name) portable stereo with detachable speakers. It was a 1959 Xmas present from my parents and it came with a 33 1/3 album of classical music.
