I just… buh… frt… THE HELL!!!

:rolleyes: When did my Grandpa get a computer?

Yeah. My thought exactly.

Oh god, please, make it stop, make it stop!

I’d say that Pauline Hanson* has finally (thank goodness) left Australian shores and taken up residence in the US, except I don’t think she knows how to use a computer either.

*Youse can ‘google’ her if you want to…she’s good for a bit of a giggle now that she is a political has-been.

Ugh, my eyes just glazed over from reading that OP.

Hmm, he’s free to think as he pleases. As long as he does not interfere with my right to think as I please, we’ll get along nuetrally. I’m also free to do as I please, as long as my actions don’t interfere with his rights to do the same. We’ll continue to be on nuetral terms as long as he adheres to this. I certainly don’t intend to intrude on his rights.

I’m certainly glad I can give him a wide berth though. My patience would be seriously tested if he were to lecture me on the error of my veiws.

ZC: Can’t you just say “What an idiot”?

Seems to be the standard “enlightened one” who wants to “wake up America”. His perceptions of life, love, and all things good and true are obvious truths and others are poor deluded fools. A significant faction of his opposition are the requisite morons who prefer the delusion and oppose him because he introduces the light of “truth” and they can’t stand it.

I figure he’ll go away once he finishes posting his rants from his old website(currently down) as OPs.

Enjoy,

He starts out on the border of being ok. I’ve never bought the line that diversity was intrinsically good. I just don’t see how it’s intrinsically bad either, as long as we can avoid the divisive trap of adopting official bilingualism.

The conspiracy thing is a little wacky. But hey, as long as people like Razorsharp are around, I don’t have to worry about remote fears like the imposition of a liberty-squelching world government or socialist state. If he can be this alert when there isn’t an imminent threat of those things, I’m sure I can count on him to go all “Red Dawn” for us if it looks like it might happen.

No,** Nanoda ** because that would be untrue. I don’t think he’s an idiot, I just disagree with his perceptions of how the world really is. Because of this fact, I choose not to insult his point of veiw. He’s been alive for longer than I have, and the things he’s experienced during that life have shaped how he sees the world. There really is no argueing with it, it’s just how he sees things. As I stated, as long as he doesn’t interfere with my choices (and I’ll add, the choices of others) I will remain on nuetral terms with him.

Also, it’s not a good thing to poke sticks at people who might not be entirely sane. Just let him believe what he wants, you won’t be able to convince him otherwise.

It always amazes me when ignorance walks proudly. with its head held high. That is the one thing that even the SDMB cannot fight.

Well, as long as we don’t fall into postmodern antirealism here. You’re either right or you’re wrong, experience ain’t got nothin’ to do wit’ it. That said, people’s experiences and the opinions they generate are often interesting even when wrong, and we should certainly make people feel welcome to express them.

The example I often use is the novel Catcher in the Rye. Anyone over the age of 19, Salinger included, knows that Holden Caulfield’s worldview is wrong, in the objective sense. Or at least seriously flawed. The value of exploring the worldview is not in adopting it as truth, but in what we can learn from it about the perspective of a young man.

Likewise, older people have some experiences that helped them create often erroneous worldviews. But even where those views stray from the truth, there’s something interesting about why they have done so.

For instance, the above three paragraph demonstrate that I’m a self-important prick who talks down to people, and…wait a minute…oh, well, in retrospect I need a bit of self-flagellation as penance for that. Lord knows that anemic pit thread on me isn’t giving me my due :wink:

So true. After trying to explain some SCOTUS caselaw to him, and then watching him later declare victory in the thread because people just quit banging their heads against the wall, I realized this is the best policy for this guy. I checked in one other thread of his to see he had declared a victory for himself over Sua Sponte when it was quite the opposite. There’s not much you can do with that kind of person.

And, just in case he pokes his head in here, I’d like to offer one piece of advice. Quit signing your OP’s with a made up name. Razorsharp isn’t a real name either, there really is no need for you to sign your OP’s with yet another fake name. Any minute now I expect him to start referring to himself in the third person in his posts:

Razorsharp made a good point there.

Razorsharp is right!

That would be even more delusional. At least that’s what Hamlet thinks.

He has an excellent point.
His words were all crap, but the . at the end was fantastic and not a moment too soon.

:wink:

ZC I have been reading this board for about 4 years, this is the single best post that I have ever read. You are a very smart person and I would like to subscribe to your newsletter.

You know what? I’m sick of arguing history with dolts like Razorsharp. I accede to everything he claims about this nation’s origins. The entire country was founded by a group of happy, peaceful Christians, united in their whiteness, who built this country for themselves and themselves alone. I accept that: I won’t try to tell anyone different.

I would, however, like to point out that that was true about three hundred years ago.

Time change, dickhead. Get with the program.

Times! Fuck!

Bingo. And the less anyone says in response, the quicker he’ll run out of recycled drool.

Wow. That was - something.

What a moron.
