People have a different opinion than me. 2. That opinion is in support of Israel. 3. Therefore there is a Zionist conspiracy to control the United States and we must look at anybody whose name sounds Jewish to make sure that they’re not a traitor. The logic is sound, valid, cogent and compelling. I for one support Red in his bid to secure his a leadership position in the Bureau of Pre-Crime Prevention: Watermelon Theft Division, ‘Urban Culture’ Sub-Unit. ---

Could it be? Has **FinnAgainAndAgainAndAgain** finally given up? Or has he merely been overcome by crippling carpal tunnel? Stay tuned – I’m sure I must be lying about Finny’s trolling. ---

> [@ElvisL1ves](#): > > That’s 4-8-4. Better consult a haiku coach. > > Or does it work in Spanish? Actually, it would be a senryu, not a haiku. Haiku requires specific phrases/words that evoke seasonal imagery, etc. And the syllable requirements are not actually _that_ rigid. I have composed a senryu for this thread: Text flows like glacier, Traitor jews and racist lies; Finn’s still a fuckhead. ---

> [@spoke-](#): > > Another successful online diagnosis! Oh, this isn’t a surprise at all. The guy is constitutionally incapable of not “winning”; in fact, it drives him so nuts that he can’t imagine that anyone can honestly disagree with him – one would have to be a liar. Note, of course, that his calling people trolls is the exact same sort of accusation of dishonesty. Like I said, his self-esteem is incredibly damaged when people don’t recognize his authority. That’s what makes him such an obsessive twit. The sad part is that like many people battling mental illness, he probably doesn’t recognize the effect it has on his life and relationships, or blames those problems on other people being irrational, dishonest, or prejudiced, or anything else that isn’t his fault. ---

Indeed it rather explains the surreal, almost self-parody of a reaction to my providing a quick Wiki to make reference to cites to Israeli New Historians to support my criticism of Captain using the bland term ‘fled’ when many (I did say mostly, although in my view if 50%+ are expelled, that’s mostly) were in fact expelled by the Israeli forces. It’s really very autistic, his response going off on a tail end tangential person that the Wiki cite merely acknowledges the existence of… Also that he seems genuinely (if ironically) offended at the idea of anyone criticising his manner of argument. It’s all the others fault, since we’re a bunch of Jew-hating bigots… ---
