The Seriously? Theatre of Absurdity, Ignorance, and Bad Posts V

[politicus]

I have CrabCake on ignore, so I only see his stuff when people quote him.  ^^

Yeah, weird. One of the last posters I would put on ignore. Both insightful and funny. He trolls a bit, but at least his trolling is generally funny.

[politicus]

Fascism is a far-left ideology

[politicus]

I'm pretty sure (or at least I want to believe) Oakvale was joking.

Sure, and partly trolling, but as I have said before joking does not prevent a post from being bad. A lot of the worst posts on Atlas are intended as jokes.

[politicus]

Of course not. Telling the truth about the greatest hoax until the "moon" landings shouldn't be a criminal offense, much as the cultural femi-marxists and their allies in the media (guess who?) might like to make you believe otherwise. Wake up.

Look at the thread title.

Were you born without a detection mechanism for blindingly obvious irony or were you maimed in a tragic accident in your childhood?

It being irony doesn't matter. It is a bad post because its stupid and lame. You keep objecting to people putting your posts in the deluge because they are irony/satire etc. as if that was relevant. It isn't. On the contrary almost all your attempts at being funny or clever are lame and unfunny = bad posts.

So please stop objecting to your posts being placed in the deluge - at least half of them belong here.

[politicus]

To illustrate my point above:

- Do away with taxes except for THE RICH
- Government covers spending by growing and selling legal weed
- Anime becomes real

[politicus]

Stop being mean to politicuSS

They are welcome, I just reserve the right to disagree with them and think this place would be better if oakvale left. The SS on the other hand is a bit of a low blow from you, since I don't count you among my forum enemies.

[politicus]

The Teutons have a very stiff sense of humor and no sense of irony. Because they think they earned everything they have. As an Irish you learned this the hard way.  Politicus thinks Ireland needs more England whether she'll admit it or not.  But thats because the Irish have infiltrated everything and seduced the people with spirits and music. (You can take our land...but we'll take your souls!)  she's mad that rule following and brute force didn't work.

Danes are not Germans (or Swedes for that matter) irony is an integrated part of our humor and we use it all the time, but oakvale is not good at it. It is the principle - bad irony = bad post.

You're right...it would be better if Oakvale left.  But then we'd be swallowed whole by you!
And nobody likes to feed their hunger with a tepid glass of water, politicus.

Oakvale is like grape cherry cough medicine...bitter in the mouth but helpful if used correctly.  Your message, politicus, is sweet to the ear in its tepid serious reasonableness, but bitter to the stomach.

His message fills your head.  Yours empties the stomach.

Fair enough, all I ask is that oakvale and anybody else should stop using the "it is humor/irony/satire" line when people put their posts in the deluge. Simple as that.

He didn't say German, he said Teutonic, which is another word for calling the Germanic people and Danes are the North Germanic people.

Yes, I know, but he implied that Germanic people don't use/understand irony.

[politicus]

And Sorry Politicus...but reading the first sentence of the Teutons on wikipedia says it all...

A Germanic tribe or Celtic people living in Jutland during Roman times.  Nowadays it means all Germanic language speaking people...which most certainly covers Denmark.

Yes, I know and never said otherwise. Did you not read my post above?

Most Germans and Swedes don't use irony, Danes do it constantly.

That's fair.  It is your deluge too.

Touche.

[politicus]

I'm sorry what? You don't think Swedes use irony? Lol.

No, I said most don't. Which may be hyperbolic, but if so Swedes and Germans certainly use it a lot less often than Danes and in far fewer contexts.

[politicus]

Nah, Greens and The Left are basically the same ideologically. All the differences are cultural.

[politicus]

Democrats aren't much interested in politicians who blame video games for gun violence. This isn't the 90s anymore.

Then how do you explain that basically the only thing the Norwegian mass murderer Anders Behring Breivik did in the entire year before his mass killings was playing video games? No connection whatsoever? And it wasn't just any kind of video game. It was the single most violent there is out there. The combination mental illness and violent video games can be pretty deadly, just as the combination of mental illness and gun possession can be pretty lethal too.

Instead of worrying about video games why don't you worry about the fact that Brevick will be out of your prisons in about 18 years.

... in response to a poster with a Swedish avatar (and he's wrong about him being out in 18 years, so double ignorance!)

Eric is actually a Norwegian, but there is no Norway avatar and for some reason he likes to use the Swedish one.

We also have a new Czech poster using a Poland avatar. Go figure.

[politicus]

But as I know the politically correct, naive left-leftists Merkel, Faymann and Co. I'm sure they will not learn from these tragedies and just keep on doing what they have done until now: talking and leading a comfortable life of elitists with their 10.000€ monthly salary, far removed from the needs of the average German/Austrian citizen and even further away from the lives of the refugees ...

[politicus]

my prayers go to him in his battle against cancer.

Obvious HP = obvious, and I'm not too surprised about his illness: something had to fill that massive empty space in his head.

Nasty.

[politicus]

Yeah, white people are basically without culture.

[politicus]

Context:

Nationalist anti-worker scum.

[politicus]

... in the "How would you have voted?" thread:

ATAKA.

Thought this was bad enough to post this here. Parties like Jobbik, Ataka, NPD, and Golden Shower should be off-limits for every sane person.

But you support True Finns...

That is not a Neo-Nazi or Fascist party.

[politicus]

This is pretty old news. Besides, I care more for every human life that these bastards have taken than for some old temple, regardless of how beautiful it was.

Loss of human life is terrible, but cultural heritage can never be replaced, while new humans are born all the time. Some parts of our heritage are more important than a single individual. Even if it is an odd calculation.

Why is that absurd?

Something like Stonehenge or Taj Mahal is clearly worth more to humanity than a single human being.

I admire your contributions in the international elections board but your politics are literally the worst. Piles of rocks have no inherent value. Those buildings might be pretty, or educational, or inspirational, but at the end of the day its rocks. They’re not conscious. They’re inanimate objects, politicus. You can build a new piles of rocks or even put the same ones back together. It blows my mind that anyone on God’s green earth can weight a real human being in one hand and a useless pile of rocks like Stonehenge in the other and say the latter is somehow more worthy of existing than the latter.

In a different time and place you’d be the most rabid of nazis. After all, Hitler built so many pretty buildings, and had such a great respect for German heritage. You have no empathy and no perspective.

Arguing "Ad Hitlerum" I see, never a good sign.

Calling Stonehenge a "pile of rocks" is like saying Grand Canyon is a hole in the ground in Arizona". It may be true on one level, but it completely misses the point - it is a direct link to our ancestors, a view back in history and a magical place. And you can never recreate something like the Taj Mahal or the church of St. Peter, Hagia Sofia etc. Maybe a faint and hollow replica, but that is all.

I think you lack perspective - individuals life for a short time - while the great masterpieces of art and architecture can inspire and enjoy countless generations. People have died to safe cultural treasures from destruction in fires and during war, and rightfully so. Culture is not "dead" it is life, beauty, happiness and inspiration. Of course only a very small part is so to a degree where it is more important than something as precious as a human life, but there surely are things that are.

You think the difference between human beings and rocks is how long they last. Got it. You clearly have empathy in spades and have such a great historical perspective on this. Devastating rebuke of my argument.

How many people they influence; how greatly they influence them; and how much they potentially can influence and inspire future generations. All of which are obviously in one way or another connected to how long they last.

This one is for my "Willips Brighton Memorial Gallery of Cruel and Insensitive Posts", but since some anonymous mod (no one has ever admitted to it) merged it into this one I have to put it here:

About Joan Rivers:

HP, I'm glad she's dead.

[politicus]

There is no such thing as a funny political cartoon.

[politicus]

No, they should not. In fact they should not celebrate it even once. Instead they should turn to truth of Christianity and leave the lies of Islam behind.

Ironic coming from a poster called Unbiased.

[politicus]

No, killing fascists is not a crime.

Every civilian of an axis country, of course, being a fascist.

If one is not actively opposing fascism then one deserve death the same as any war criminal.
