My complaint about BakaBT

<< < (5/10) > >>

Xtras:
I saw the forum title. I knew it was gonna end badly. Saw the length of the post and felt it was going to end even worse. I started reading it, and felt it was going to end horribly. I got four lines down, and finally realized that nobody on earth would put that much effort into a complain, use such vocabulary, or actually type out that much text with very specified paragraph breaks. Then I saw that very very last line.

Good one. You got me.  :D

In this letter I plan to cite some of this thread's more topical crimes and let you, the reader, decide for yourself how to react. I'm sure that everyone reading this is already familiar with this thread's gutless memoranda so I'll spare you the sordid details. Instead, I'll simply summarize with the comment that this is not a question of sectarianism or fetishism. Rather, it is a question about how not only does this thread tinker about with a lot of halfway prescriptions, but it then commands its underlings, "Go, and do thou likewise." Can you believe that this thread once said that it answers to no one? I have a collection of similar pearls from this thread, but rather than recite them all I'll simply point out that throughout history, there has been a clash between those who wish to acknowledge that identifying and naming abusive spouters is fundamentally different from using their paroxysms as an instrument of rebellion and those who wish to engulf the world in a dense miasma of clericalism. Naturally, this thread belongs to the latter category.

In any decent society, this thread would be just another cuckoo rabble-rouser standing on a streetcorner braying its nonsensical diatribes from atop a soapbox. Nevertheless, it has managed to gain some credibility among testy incubi because they relate to her message that representative government is an outmoded system that should be replaced by a system of overt wowserism. This is preeminently the time to speak the truth, the whole truth, frankly and boldly. Let me therefore state that this thread uses the word "deanthropomorphizat ion" to justify forcing me to waver between the alluring promises of a gruesome, jackbooted "new morality" and the sound dictation of my own conscience. In doing so, it is reversing the meaning of that word as a means of disguising the fact that it claims that it can absorb mana by devouring its nemeses' brains. Perhaps it has some sound arguments on its side, but if so it's keeping them hidden. I'd say it's far more likely that this thread, already oppressive with its unsympathetic theories, will perhaps be the ultimate exterminator of our human species—if separate species we be—for its reserve of unguessed horrors could never be borne by mortal brains if loosed upon the world. If you think that that's a frightening thought then consider that this thread's faculty for deception is so far above anyone else's, it really must be considered different in kind as well as in degree.

Society has paid a dear price for letting this thread bring this battle to a fever pitch. Regular readers of my letters probably take that for granted, but if I am to act as a positive role model for younger people, I must explain to the population at large that if we don't remove the this thread threat now, it will bite us in our backside as soon as our backs are turned. Don't get me wrong; this thread's commitment to parasitism is only part of the story. But most people want to be nice; they want to be polite; they don't want to give offense. And because of this inherent politeness, they step aside and let this thread encourage people to leave their spouses, kill their children, practice witchcraft, destroy capitalism, and become homophobic gnosticism enthusiasts.

You've never heard this thread announce that it plans to waste our time and money? Well, this thread has repeatedly enunciated such a plan but in its typically convoluted way. Rather than pick out appropriate verbs and nouns, this thread pads all of its sentences with extra syllables to grant them an atmosphere of authority. I, on the other hand, prefer to use simple language to express the sentiment that this thread appears to have found a new tool to use to help it destroy our country from within. That tool is elitism, and if you watch it wield it you'll indeed see why it can make no claim to a distinguishing characteristic of any kind. But you knew that already. So let me add that I have a scientist's respect for objective truth. That's why I'm telling you that even when this thread isn't lying, it's using facts, emphasizing facts, bearing down on facts, sliding off facts, quietly ignoring facts, and, above all, interpreting facts in a way that will enable it to withhold information and disseminate half truths and whole lies.

Just thinking about this thread's prurient notions is giving me a two-Tylenol headache, and that's one reason why I'm writing this letter. Although theoretical differences can be drawn between this thread's debauched wheelings and dealings and anti-democratic obstructionism, these are distinctions without a difference. Let us postulate that this thread needs a mental carminative. In that case, this thread's idiotic claim that unfounded attacks on character, loads of hyperbole, and fallacious information are the best way to make a point is just that, an idiotic claim.

Many experts now believe that what we're seeing is a domino effect of events that started with this thread stating that merit is adequately measured by its methods and qualifications. That prevarication incited its jackals to control, manipulate, and harm other people. Presumptuous wankers reacted, in turn, by preventing me from sleeping soundly at night. The next domino to fall, not surprisingly, was a widespread increase in irrationalism, and that's the event that galvanized me to tell everyone that I have some advice for this thread. It should keep its mouth shut until it stops being such a ribald, pertinacious cozener and starts being at least one of informative, agreeable, creative, or entertaining. If this thread is incapable of discerning the mad ramblings of effrontive fault-finders from the wisdom and nuance embedded in a sage's discourse then I seriously doubt that it'll be capable of determining that it has been trying hard to protect what has become a lucrative racket for it. Unfortunately, that lucrative racket has a hard-to-overlook consequence: it will suppress people's instinct and intellect sooner or later.

This thread maliciously defames and damagingly misrepresents everyone and everything around it. There's a word for that: libel. This thread's duplicitous attempt to construct a creative response to my previous letter was absolutely pitiful. Really, this thread, stringing together a bunch of solecistic insults and seemingly random babble is hardly effective. It simply proves beyond a shadow of a doubt that my general thesis is that anyone who says that all minorities are poor, stupid ghetto trash can be branded as both backwards and heartless. I'll say that again because I want it to sink in: It is a scion of the most bleeding-heart goofballs you'll ever see. I'll talk a lot more about that later, but first let me finish my general thesis: This thread's most impertinent tactic is to fabricate a phony war between petulant, longiloquent layabouts and prissy, disorganized card sharks. This way, it can subjugate both groups into helping it promulgate partisan prejudice against others. I truly don't want that to happen, which is why I'm telling you that many people are shocked when I tell them that I definitely think that this thread's opinion is a lazy cop-out. And I'm shocked that so many people are shocked. You see, I had thought everybody already knew that I once managed to get this thread to agree that it confuses entertainment with learning. Unfortunately, a few minutes later, it did a volte-face and denied that it had ever said that.

This thread has convinced a lot of people that sensationalism brings one closer to nirvana. One must pause in admiration at this triumph of media manipulation. I like to think I'm a reasonable person but you just can't reason with the most wanton skinheads I've ever seen. It's been tried. They don't understand, they can't understand, they don't want to understand, and they will die without understanding why all we want is for them not to nurture the seeds of our eventual destruction so that they grow like a rapidly malignant mutant form of kudzu. I myself can only fix our sights on eternity if this thread's disaffected polity is decimated down to those whose inborn lack of character permits them to betray anyone and everyone for the well-known thirty pieces of silver. This thread's tracts were never about tolerance and equality. That was just window dressing for the "innocents". Rather, this thread finds reality too difficult to swallow. Or maybe it just gets lost between the sports and entertainment pages. In either case, it's time for this thread to face the music. It follows from this that whenever it encounters a free-thinking individual who presents factual data that conflicts with its beliefs, this thread doesn't know what to do, but that's a story for another time. For now, I want to focus on the way that it wonders why everyone hates it. Apparently, it never stopped to think that maybe it's because it makes it sound like advertising is the most veridical form of human communication. The evidence against that concept is so overwhelming, even an eight-year-old child can recognize it. Even so, this thread would have us believe that the ideas of "freedom" and "antiheroism" are Siamese twins. Yeah, right. And I also suppose that university professors must conform their theses and conclusions to this thread's feckless, damnable prejudices if they want to publish papers and advance their careers? The fact of the matter is that perhaps one day we will live in a world where good people are not troubled by fear of abhorrent, brutal common criminals. Until that day arrives, however, we must spread the word that this thread's mawkish dream is starting to come true. Liberties are being killed by attrition. Pharisaism is being installed by accretion. The only way that we can reverse these baleful trends is to follow through on the critical work that has already begun. To be precise, it has been brought to my attention that it is a scavenger of human misery. While this is sincerely true, there's something fishy about its stances. I think this thread is up to something, something horny and perhaps even oligophrenic.

This thread maintains that people prefer "cultural integrity" and "multicultural sensitivity" to health, food, safety, and the opportunity to choose their own course through life. This is complete—or at least, incomplete—baloney. For instance, this thread fails to mention that this is not the first time I've wanted to convert retreat into advance. But it is the first time I realized that I plan to get my message about this thread out to the world. This is a choice I have made; your choice is up to you. But let me remind you that wherever you look, you'll see this thread enforcing intolerance in the name of tolerance. You'll see it suppressing freedom in the name of freedom. And you'll see it crushing diversity of opinion in the name of diversity.

This thread holds onto power like the eunuch mandarins of the Forbidden City—sterile obstacles to progress who demand that Earth submit to the dominion of obscene, irrational curmudgeons. This thread can't seriously believe that without its superior guidance, we will go nowhere, can it? Although I haven't yet been able to concoct an acceptable answer to that question, I can suggest a tentative hypothesis. My hypothesis is that there's no indication that its cronies will ever knock some sense into this thread. Well, that's getting away from my main topic, which is that what I find frightening is that some academics actually believe its line that we ought to worship the worst kinds of crafty leeches I've ever seen as folk heroes. In this case, "academics" refers to a stratum of the residual intelligentsia surviving the recession of its demotic base, not to those seekers of truth who understand that this thread insists that it is beyond reproach. Sorry, this thread, but, with apologies to Gershwin, "it ain't necessarily so." I could be wrong about any or all of this, but at the moment, the above fits what I know of history, people, and current conditions. If anyone sees anything wrong or has some new facts or theories on this, I'd love to hear about them.
