If you pay attention, you will find that there is a scarcity of argument or dialog in their discourse. Instead they make up insulting words and use them perseveratively. They pronounce statements, but do not back them up with source or reason. They respond to disagreement with put-downs like "hogwash". They do not recognize any obligation to back up their statements, but profess that they are their own authority. "Having the last word" - even if it's only a word of abuse, is often very important to them.
When their manner of discourse is criticized they will blame the pain they cause on their victims by
(1) asserting that the statement of, for example, Catholic opinion is so provocative that they cannot restrain themselves from responding; and
(2) arguing that posted words have only the power their reader gives them.
The obvious contradiction between these two propositions escapes their notice.
When they are treated as they treat others, they comment on the unfairness and cruelty of such treatment and then proclaim with self-conscious nobility that to be targeted for such abuse is meritorious.
