I have been in speech/communication study lately, and it is wonderful. I 
think everyone should learn it. The book teaches how one should behave 
in newsgroup discussion as well. First, Kaz seems to have terrible 
perceptual errors on everything.  He sees people as country or nation; 
then, he sees a country/nation as a race.  Second, his generalization of 
*all* attributes based on *one single* attribution.  It is called halo 
effect. (Human Communication)

Also, he is very distinct in showing contrast effects, which means to 
compare people's behavior with other people's behavior. (Human 
Communication)

Stereotyping is very common in Kaz's writing.  Its definition is to 
perceive people as a group with wrong perception. (Human Communication)

I guess he doesn't have self-esteem.
