Observing that a poster is insensitive to a primary issue while attending to a secondary issue is “analysis,” not “mind reading.”

Could you suggest a better phrase for pointing out that incongruity than the colloquial use of “seeing” in such cases?

You said:

Second, as with all carnal people, you can’t see anything but your favorite issue...that of being a victim flack.

To not make it personal, you could have said:

Second, carnal people can’t see anything but their favorite issue...that of being a victim flack. Evidently, you are carnal.
