If you are the type of person who says, "I like to speak my mind," or, "I'm very opinionated," and then say thats the reason people don't like you, all you are is some rogue who doesn't know how to shut their face. All you're trying to do is take your character flaws and personality downfalls and make them into some sort of cheap saving grace, so you can make yourself look so good that it can seem that if society was just more intellectually evolved, you'd be the king of the hill. Just remember, Ronald Reagan spoke his mind, Abe Lincoln spoke his mind, Teddy Roosevelt spoke his mind, and our fore fathers spoke their mind, and they not only went somewhere GREAT because of it, but they were wise enough and assertive enough to find a way to take the rest of the country with them.
