> [@SmartAleq](#): > > JFC, he’s not Voldemort or anything. If you’re referring to a specific person then use their fucking name. On a related note, you’re not an actual sorceror so using some convoluted insult twisting of a person’s name does not act like a voodoo doll to harm them. Grow up, this isn’t third grade. We get it, you hate some guy but beating a dead horse endlessly just results in you being responsible for a thousand pounds of beaten up dead horse in your yard stinking up the place. It’s just fun to avoid saying the name that he likes to plaster on everything. He’s not Voldemort, but I’m pretty sure he gets a boner every time someone says his name. And I love that your post telling us to just use his name goes on to avoid actually saying his name. 😝 ---

Consider it an exercise in how to handle distasteful things without creating stupidy thread titles that someone has to read several posts into to find out it’s completely uninteresting. You’re welcome. ---

> [@SmartAleq](#): > > JFC, he’s not Voldemort or anything. If you’re referring to a specific person then use their fucking name. Personally, I never say his name and do not type it unless absolutely necessary. I will break the rule when he dies and I do handsprings across my yard shouting at the top of my lungs that the fuckstick is really most sincerely dead. ---

If the fucker ever does die, there will be a lot of unmoored acolytes who will need someone else to hitch their wagon to. He’ll quickly be forgotten, because what the hell is he? He offered no solutions or any kind of political theory. His charisma, such as it is, will die with him. Someday… ---
