Hi Brandon. Good to have you back. I'm not sure that I made any arguments, only asked questions, but as I said to you, I don't feel any interest in spending effort on discussing things with you.

Fuck sovereign, you really are a wanker. I know it is true because I have a grossly inflated sense of my own capacity for intellectual curiosity and all my friends that think the same way as I do agree with me.

Every so often, I sit back and realize: "there are idiots who think they can gather up a bunch of really hot babes and enslave them."

Suddenly the Paultards, LaRouchies, and Obama supporters seem . . . rational.

This was actually a good thread, especially for one started at a time that I was so neurologically dysfunctional.

It's stupid to dismiss this topic as necessarily being all about sex, let alone as reflecting sexual obsession. The notion that women are not visually stimulated is an important part of the larger patriarchal narrative that women are passive receptacles of lust, rather than active sexual and moral agents. IOW, it helps lay the groundwork for objectifying and therefore dehumanizing women.

It’s true men are perverts. All of them have used porn in exploitative ways, all of them would cheat if there wasn’t a chance they’d get caught, all are pervs.

Wow, for someone who so regrets all the insane shit that "you" can't be held accountable for because it just makes you sick or cry or something, you sure enjoy patting yourself on the back with this thread necromancy.

Why not? I've got a lot of pain in my life, so I'll take a little joy wherever I can get it. The big joys are more important, but the little stuff can sure add up.

Also, why shouldn't I pat myself on the back when people like you do their best to tear me down? Why shouldn't I maximize the positive, especially considering that if the viral therapy doesn't work, I might not have more than six more months or so. Frankly that you are as callous toward me as you are is downright frightening. I've got terminal cancer, and you evidently don't give a shit. If you do, you feel pleasure and laugh about it. You're the kind of person who'd just pass right by a homeless kid who is freezing in the cold, most likely. AND YOU DON'T HAVE BRAIN CANCER AS AN EXPLANATION, as far as I know.

You don't have any comments on my feminist analysis of this issue? I guess maybe objectification of women isn't that big a deal to you. I'm a rape victim, so it damn sure is to me.

I think you may be confused a little bit. No one on here would laugh at you for having cancer. It is the crap coming out of your mouth that they have a problem with.

Well we can start by looking at my post in this thread which brought about the 'necromancy'.

The notion that women are not visually stimulated is an important part of the larger patriarchal narrative that women are passive receptacles of lust, rather than active sexual and moral agents.

That's not crap; it's true. So please link me to some examples of crap that I've posted here recently (i.e., under this nym). Thanks in advance!

Could you be just a teeny-bit more specific, please? I mean, if there are so many examples it should be easy as pie for you to link to one or two specific examples. Meantime, I'll be linking some more not-crap posts o' mine.

This is completely true. Do you disagree?

Let's cut through the bullshit, OK? Sharing the pleasures of really, really smooth skin, body lotion, sensuality, and French kissing among caring, empathetic friends is a lot more fun than machinegunning people at the orders of a death-obsessed authoritarian leader. Or even being that leader, especially since you usually end up either getting nuked, swinging from a rope, or offing yourself after catastrophically losing to relatively effeminate, egalitarian forces.

How can you blame me for changing my fucking mind?


I'm having trouble imagining how someone could diagree with that without basically having a necrophilic (biophobic) personality.

Another not-crap post of mine:
Well, I've run into some Jewish people who were definitely racist, and it wasn't me as I wasn't even saying anything or looking at them at the time. But it's a good thing that you're not racist. And from all the research I've read, which is considerable, at least at baseline Ashkenazi Jewish people generally are among the least authoritarian in their attitudes, relative to any other ethnic group. I meant it when I said that Jews who take the tribal supremacist or other reactionary shit seriously are a distinct minority, again at least at baseline. But applying Karen Stenner's refinement of Altmeyer, et al., when people are scared shitless, the number of authoritarians can really go through the roof. It's a dynamic response to external threat, basically. And Israel is like one big ghetto, surrounded by potential holocausts. That's one thing that makes me really uncomfortable about it. Basically, Israeli Jews have been forced by genocidal antisemitism and white supremacist reaction into a really fucked up situation that's unhealthy or potentially unhealthy for the Jews and for people of every group involved, directly or even indirectly.

BTW, observing that some Zionists have become too much like Nazis isn't the same as saying that Zionists = Nazis or Zionism = Nazism. I usually don't like to be hostile, but in a manner of speaking, if you (obviously don't mean you, Q) are a nazi, fuck you. Promoting nazism isn't free speech; it's conspiracy to commit genocide, which needs to be recognized as a crime against humanity under universal humanitarian law. Nazis need the potential liberty from their own sickness that humane confinement and effective treatment might ultimately provide, not license to spread their necrophilic cancer.

Why? I think preventing another Holocaust from happening is infinitely more important than Nazis having the "right" to spread their toxic crap, especially to children. It's much like with fundamentalism: as with freedom of religion, free speech isn't even meaningful within a totally authoritarian paradigm. Of course, you probably already know all this, but it still feels good to say it. Also, Anne Frank is more than enough reason to ban Nazism.
If it's "word salad," it's pretty yummy word salad that is completely cogent and completely true.

For anyone weepy about Nazis losing their License to Genocide, er, free speech, well, cry me a Rhine.

I think you should be more than capable of looking up your own posts for yourself. You should also know what you are writing. Something that I have discovered helps me to make sure I am not posting crap is rereading what I post before I post it. At least make sure it makes sense and goes with the conversation at hand.

I'm a person with a diagnosis of terminal cancer, as well as both PTSD and OCD. That you, or anyone at all in a supposedly civilized forum, would subject me to psychological abuse rather than show even the slightest shred of compassion is a disgusting travesty.

No, I cannot - at least logically and morally - be held responsible for hateful crap that I wrote while I was insane. That is extremely irrational. I don't take credit for the insight so much as marvel that non-hateful and eminently sane things ever managed to flow from my fingertips during a time that I was so fucking crazy.

I request that you don't call me Brandon. That name was chosen by my parents, not by me, and it is inconsistent with my internal gender image, which evidently is neurologically based.

Thank you for the explanation. Feel free to ask more questions.
