Are You Easily 'Triggered'?

If so, why?
I ask simply because many of my posts here elicit angry responses, and I don't know why. I mean, ALL I do is challenge widely-accepted beliefs that to me seem insane. It's nothing personal, but people take it that way. It's almost as though they can't handle the thought, the mere possibility, of being wrong about something. Are their egos really so fragile?
That's not me in the photo, by the way.

I try to remain rational. I have this experience sometimes too. My rationale is the questioning of such long held widely accepted concepts beliefs and idea result in a sort of feeling attacked bc thats the way it is the way it has always been and the way it will always be therefore my conclusion is its fear that causes their anger or knee jerk response
