The sectarian and the mirror

Carl,
Who sees you as a sectarian?
Perhaps these people are taking you as their own mirror.
I try not to label persons.
We have enough with fighting wrong actions (mainly our own; but also collective actions or individual actions which have an impact on collective situations capable of involving ourselves).
So there is no need to worry about personalities.
Carlos.
