It was mid-February 2010 and athelas started a thread called: People’s mate preferences are racist. Do we care? It was a cynically flawed, but detailed argument for the government to regulate romances by race (because the US government also regulates some businesses to be racially diverse). Of course it provided fodder for debate.
Fast forward to April. I run into a blog post that is an exact copy of athelas’s OP.. I bring it up in the zombie thread, taunt him a bit… no response. I drift back to forgetting athelas exists.
Fast forward to today. I open up the Straus-Kahn case falling apart. Duke lacrosse, etc.? thread and start reading. I encounter this post:

You know, as we saw with the Duke lacrosse case, on a personal level, it’s generally a good idea to stay away from strippers and hookers. Yeah, it’s unfair when they make up accusations against you, but, you’re safest from phony rape charges when they haven’t ever met you.
On a national level, it’s generally not a good idea to let in to your country foreigners like this lady who seem only skilled at working the system…(snip)
This is not going down in the history books as an impressive performance by either the prestige or tabloid presses. Back in May, there quickly emerged questions about why this woman was living in an apartment building for AIDS sufferers (I read it in the Daily Telegraph – the Brits tend to be better at scandal than us), but then those questions just went away because … I guess everybody really, really wants to find the real life Great White Defendant like we’ve seen on Law & Order for 20 years…(snip)
By the way, the prosecutors say they haven’t found any evidence that a political conspiracy was behind it.

This is a huge failure on the part of our nation’s law enforcement. We arrested a guy who was possibly the future leader of France because of some lying woman’s story. The people of France have every right to be pissed at us.

Both are mere cut & paste jobs. However by now (with two random comments stolen from various racist blogs) athelas gets a few bites from Marley23, DSeid, and outlierrn. To which athelas replies:
[QUOTE=Orignal Author]
Why are we letting these scumbag immigrants, like the “con-artist” who falsely accused Dominique Strauss-Kahn of rape, into the country?
[/QUOTE]
To which triggers more calm (and utterly confused) responses from Marley23, wmfellows, and clairobscur. Little does anyone know that they are not communicating with a human, but a robot. Someone who doesn’t engages in debate, responds to criticism, nor forms their own opinions; but a simple mailman, who takes/copies the arguments of others and delivers/pastes them elsewhere. Nary a single attribution and always disguised as his own informed comments.
He’s probably been doing this for years. I’m not going to go through his entire history but if theirs anyone else who wants to check his other threads it’s simple. Just copy some text from any OP and paste it into google search. Most likely you’ll find that it’s been plagiarized word-for-word (there I found another one).
