6. Not a "sore loser." It's righteous indignation.

I see your brother-in-law in a former life (bear with me) prior to the American Revolution. King George has many of the colonists rankled about taxation without representation. But your BIL looks at them, shrugs, and says, "Whatever. You guys are just being alarmist sore losers."

If someone calls me a sore loser, I respond with, "You just don't get it."

There's an old saying, you can't fight ignorance. AFAIC, the reason you can't fight it is because it never learns from its mistakes.
