My point very well put phillip!
Car guy go to the shops and buy stuff because thats what advertising tells you to do, go be a drone? Because that is what you are telling me to do in effect.
Your telling me i should ignore the standards that have been set by 1C themselves just for Cliffs of Dover?
Your telling me i should accept the lies i have been told and so on and so forth and just spend my money like a good little boy and not make a fuss. Because if Imake a fuss then i am wrong.
Dude you have brainwashed yourself to accept lower standards.
You talk of "do i beat friends over money" What!?
Do you see 1C as your friends and i'm beating on them or something.
1C are not my friends, we have a business releationship, they produce, I buy. But if they say that x, x and x is in the box and I buy it and its not in there then as a consumer I'm not happy and 1C say ok well we'll keep you informed please have patience, I say of course, and i get no or very little information back then again I'm being led a merry dance!

"Oh. And you`re saying that you`re not intelligent enough to know that principles can be preserved to an extent, depending on circumstances?"
So what you really mean is i should only retain my principles if the circumstances permit?
I think you also have that the wrong way around, its the circumstance that change around the principle, a principle stands firm under fire.

If you say your going to communicate in a regular way, then thats what you do
