The Fallen Blogger and the Spectre of Secularism

You know, since you seem to feel it necessary to reply (sometimes multiple times) to every one of his posts, he’s actually coming off as pretty competent in his trolling. I’m just sayin’.

No, to be very competent it would be to keep a pretense that makes you take seriously the provocations. It is quickly clear the costs like of the djinn or other anti-muslim things are pure baiting. so blandly pointing this out is a small amusement. he fails to anger as he attempts. of course his bigotry is probably real.

No, to be comptentent all he has to do is generate response posts. But hey, if you want to keep feeding him, it’s no skin off my nose. Go right ahead.

Yes the sdmb has 15 years of experience in a policy that has never shown any success. But the articles of sdmb faith.

Another instance of demanding that anything anti-Muslim be censored.

Are you saying that these students shouldn’t have the right to protest and make their opinions known? Why do you hate free speech, Haberdash?

Cancelling the screening is censorship, not “making your opinion known.” But in a culture where murdering twelve cartoonists is just brave resistance to “punching down” I can understand your confusion.

He is a troll. Mentally ill troll to waste the time searching articles for this, but a troll. I am sure the hateful bigotry and the hypocrisy on the speech is genuine, but he seeks to provoke reaction in a childish and a mentally ill fashion. the same behavior in other threads is seen.

all normal people can see this, better to point out that none of his links show it is a muslims conspiracy or even mostly muslim students. So university students protest things. it is what they do. only the mentally ill think it is a conspiracy.

They can’t “cancel the screening”, it’s not their screening. Do these students have the right to protest someone else’s screening, or don’t they, Haberdash? Should they have free speech or shouldn’t they, in your view?

Would a group of conservative students be just as wrong to protest a campus screening of a pro-Hillary Clinton film?

They have the right to call for censorship just as you have the right to worship a pedophile. You’re both using your rights to do something awful.

The troll makes his trolling in a incompetent way…

Oh, I dunno. He’s getting what he wants. That’s successful trolling in my book.

No, he wants to get reactions to argue his statements. He will continue - because he is mentally ill - to obsessively post things bad about your politics or muslims no matter what.

it is better to mock him for the incomptence.

:shrug: Maybe so. But I disagree; I think you could have stopped at “he wants to get reactions.”

Nothing in all my time here has made me believe that the cardinal SDMB pretension that ignoring and disappearing these people actually has any success.

So what is it that you think you are achieving against “these people” exactly? I know you probably won’t believe me but despite my abrasive ways sometimes I was actually willing to listen to whatever it is that you have to say if you do the same. We probably won’t agree but that’s life.

I was having a nice conversation with Kobal2 and you started picking on me from your high horse and calling me stupid and dishonest, in blatant contradiction to what I said.

I know I said my farewells but I’m not attacking you here and I won’t.

It looks pretty bad when one person pretends he’s right while 20 tell him he’s wrong. It looks even worse when there’s only one person posting in a thread, though.

Don’t read anything into my words that is not there. I’m not criticizing you. The more he posts, the more clear his idiocy becomes.

Even other Muslims can’t escape the censorious impulses of Muslims.
