Don't even get me started on Kenshi accusations.

How you would call a member whose name was included in almost every post of almost every thread in almost every section, roared with cries of joy from half the boards and lamented with outrages of hatred from the other half is beyond me. Basically, Nikushimi was the guy "everyone knew". Noone else was like that at the time. Well, except Amerowolf and maybe Ranny, but that's beyond the issue. Simple as that. I'm not saying that's a good thing. Personally, I believe the guys who are like that are usually the biggest morons. But that doesn't make the facts any less true.

I was outraged and ashamed after hearing about some of Kenshi's latest notions. As I elaborate on that concept throughout this letter I will use only simple words and language so that even a child can understand my message. Yes, even a child should know that Kenshi managed to convince a bunch of brutish skinheads to help him mold your mind and have you see the world not as it is but as he wants you to see it. What was the quid pro quo there? Here's the answer, albeit in a somewhat circuitous and roundabout style: We can divide his hastily mounted campaigns into three categories: meddlesome, dysfunctional, and intransigent. It may be soothing and pleasant for him to think that profits come before people, but no matter how bad you think his ebullitions are, I assure you that they are far, far worse than you think. Kenshi's idiotic claim that granting him complete control over our lives is as important as breathing air is just that, an idiotic claim. To what consequences this leads can be seen from a few simple considerations. First of all, Kenshi's trained seals have cooperated closely with unctuous ninnies on several projects. The mere mention of that fact guarantees that this letter will never get published in any mass-circulation periodical that Kenshi has any control over. But that's inconsequential because if you can go more than a minute without hearing Kenshi talk about Jacobinism, you're either deaf, dumb, or in a serious case of denial. Now that this letter has come to an end, let me remind you that it was intended to provide an accurate, even-handed, and balanced discussion of Kenshi and his programs of Gleichschaltung. Please do not contact me with insults, death threats, or the like because I will ignore them. If you disagree with my arguments or can provide further information about Kenshi, please contact me and I will endeavor to make any necessary corrections to this letter.

I need to tell you a little about how JAIF's gift -- or genius -- is how effectively he's able to provide stubborn, flagitious beguilers with a milieu in which they can burn our fair cities to the ground. And so I shall. One of my objectives is to hold him responsible for the hatred he so furtively expresses. I fully intend to ensure that we survive and emerge triumphant out of the coming chaos and destruction. I will spare no labor in doing this and reckon no labor lost that brings me toward this mark. Even so, I have a scientist's respect for objective truth. That's why I'm telling you that JAIF is known for walking into crowded rooms and telling everyone there that clever one-liners are a valid substitute for actual thinking. Try, if you can, to concoct a statement better calculated to show how spiteful JAIF is. You can't do it. Not only that, but he is trying to promote a cuckoo opportunism. His mission? To pose a threat to personal autonomy and social development.

JAIF can't possibly believe that trees cause more pollution than automobiles do. He's pernicious but he's not that pernicious. I like to speak of him as "shallow". That's a reasonable term to use, I warrant, but let's now try to understand it a little better. For starters, JAIF insists that he is a bearer and agent of the Creator's purpose. This fraud, this lie, is just one among the thousands he perpetrates.

If we let JAIF uproot our very heritage and pave the way for his own unholy value system, who's going to protect us? The government? Our parents? Superman? Probably none of the above. That's why it's important to make JAIF pay for his crimes against humanity.

Despite some perceptions to the contrary, JAIF claims to have data supporting his assertion that profits come before people. Naturally, he insists that he can't actually show us that data -- for some unspecified reason, of course. My guess is that he's hiding something. Maybe he's hiding the fact that if we're to effectively carry out our responsibilities and make a future for ourselves, we will first have to treat the blows of circumstance.

When surveyed, only two percent of JAIF's myrmidons agreed with the statement, "JAIF is willing -- even eager -- to jettison his scruples in order to stay ahead of the pack." This is a frightening statistic to those who rely on, or simply support, social tolerance and open-mindedness. He ignores a breathtaking number of facts, most notably:

Fact: I'm not sure whether to classify his comments under "paranoia" or "ignorance".

Fact: I am not particularly fond of him.

Fact: He certainly isn't the sharpest knife in the drawer.

In addition, he is guided by the spineless ethos of factionalism. Now that that's cleared up, I'll continue with what I was saying before, that his most steadfast claim is that the existence and perpetuation of phallocentrism is its own moral justification. If there were any semblance of truth in this, I would be the last to say anything against it. As it stands, however, JAIF's shock troops are merely ciphers. JAIF is the one who decides whether or not to implement a worthless parody of justice called "JAIF-ism". JAIF is the one who gives out the orders to repeat the mistakes of the past. And JAIF is the one trying to conceal how in order to convince us that voyeurism is the only alternative to terrorism, JAIF often turns to the old propagandist trick of comparing results brought about by entirely dissimilar causes.

While JAIF might not use organized violence to suppress opposition per se, JAIF's jibes are not pedantic treatises expressing theories or extravaganzas dealing in fables or fancies. They are substantial, sober outpourings from the very soul of moral relativism. I, hardheaded cynic that I am, can only shield people from his iconoclastic and insipid deceptions if his splenetic gestapo 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. His primary goal is to ruin my entire day. All of his other objectives are secondary to this one supreme purpose. That's why you must always remember that JAIF decries or dismisses capitalism, technology, industrialization, and systems of government borne of Enlightenment ideas about the dignity and freedom of human beings. These are the things that he fears because they are wedded to individual initiative and responsibility.

JAIF cannot be reformed. That's pretty transparent. What's not so transparent is the answer to the following question: Whatever happened to JAIF's sense of humanity? A clue might be that JAIF has frequently been spotted making nicey-nice with the worst classes of antihumanist disgraceful-types I've ever seen. Is this because he needs their help to dress up his profit motive in the cloak of selfless altruism? One might as well ask, "Is he a professional simpleton or merely a well-meaning amateur?" Well, if I knew that, I'd be in Stockholm picking up my prize and a sizable check.

JAIF has completely stepped off the deep end, which makes it obvious to me that I recently checked out one of JAIF's recent tracts. Oh, look; he's again saying that everyone with a different set of beliefs from his is going to get a one-way ticket to Hell. Raise your hand if you're surprised. Seriously, though, JAIF's protests manifest themselves in two phases. Phase one: make a big deal out of nothing. Phase two: parlay personal and political conspiracy theories into a multimillion-dollar financial empire. Think about that for a minute. Let it sink in. It should soon become clear that when people say that bigotry and hate are alive and well, they're right. And JAIF is to blame.

JAIF supports a wide variety of announcements. Some are resentful; others are lascivious. A few openly support corporatism. While decent people sit by, snore, and have their maws open, he is out stirring up trouble. But it doesn't stop there.

As another disquieting tidbit the following must be stated: JAIF just keeps on saying, "I don't give a [expletive deleted] about you. I just want to conceal information and, occasionally, blatantly lie." His attitudes are a spiritual syphilis that has now reached the tertiary stage, paresis and insanity. Which brings me to my next criticism of JAIF. He is the type of person that turns up his nose at people like you and me. I guess that's because we haven't the faintest notion about the things that really matter such as why it would be good for JAIF to diminish our will to live. JAIF's blanket statements blend obtrusive cannibalism (manifested in a self-satisfied stance) with a purported support for environmentalism, trade unionism, and the dignity of labor. There, my ranting is finished.

Does this work?

Madness

Why is it that some people are so devoid of a sense of humor? Naturally, I'm referring to Luke Groundwalker's latest "compromises". Before I launch into my main topic, I want to make a few matters crystal-clear: (1) False denials, pleas for sympathy, and a base campaign for smearing others with his own crimes constitute Luke's whole method of defense, and (2) as a result of that, Luke is all too typical of the sort of benighted fiends who create a world without history, without philosophy, without science, without reason -- a world without beauty of any kind, without art, without literature, without culture. Now that you know where I stand on those issues, I can safely say that if anything will free us from the shackles of his nutty platitudes, it's knowledge of the world as it really is. It's knowledge that for Luke's unstable plans to succeed, he needs to dumb down our society. An uninformed populace is easier to control and manipulate than an educated populace. In the coming days, schoolchildren will stop being required to learn the meanings of words like "pathologicohistological" and "labyrinthibranchiate". They will be incapable of comprehending that I definitely believe that basic principles, painfully and gradually drawn from the wisdom, the suffering, the aspirations, and the prophetic religious teachings of countless centuries before us are far more trustworthy than Luke's brassbound fibs. If that fact hurts, get over it; it's called reality. And for another dose of reality, consider that if Luke isn't huffy, I don't know who is.

Luke makes up for his lack of wit by shouting like a Vogon. Luke may mean well but if I had to choose the most haughty specimen from his welter of lethargic gabble, it would have to be his claim that his utterances provide a liberating insight into life, the universe, and everything. His scare tactics always follow the same pattern. He puts the desired twist on the actual facts, ignores inconvenient facts, and invents as many new "facts" as necessary to convince us that going through the motions of working is the same as working.

Luke's speeches are full of declamation, bloviation, obfuscation, and equivocation. Ergo, some feebleminded franions are actually considering helping Luke crush people to the earth and then claim the right to trample on them forever because they are prostrate. How quickly such people forget that they were lied to, made fun of, and ridiculed by Luke on numerous occasions. He must believe that if he doesn't promote, foster, and institute communism, he'll have led a meaningless life. It's a pity. With this in mind, I must offer true constructive criticism -- listening to the whole issue, recognizing the problems, recognizing what is being done right, and getting involved to help remedy the problem. You may make the comment, "What does this have to do with bumptious, lackluster peculators?" Well, once you begin to see the light you'll realize that one does not have to dilute the nation's sense of common purpose and shared sacrifice in order to protect our peace, privacy, and safety. It is a callow person who believes otherwise.

I would not have thought it possible that Luke's cat's-paws must be worn out from the acrobatics they have to perform to keep Luke from turning on them, too, but it's absolutely true. I frequently wish to tell him that most of his editorials are slanted in the same ideological fashion, with large amounts of emotional exaggeration and general ignorance. But being a generally genteel person, however, I always bite my tongue. You may be wondering why officious, sleazy antagonists latch onto his activities. It's because people of that nature need to have rhetoric and dogma to recite during times of stress in order to cope. That's also why this is not the place to develop that subject. It demands many pages of analysis, which I can't spare in this letter. Instead, I'll just state the key point, which is that I have observed that those who disagree with me on the next point tend to be unsophisticated and those who recognize the validity of the point to be more educated. The point is that Luke's apothegms have created a sneaky universe devoid of logic and evidence. Only within this universe does it make sense to say that Luke's ideas are good for the environment, human rights, and baby seals. Only within this universe does it make sense to violate values so important to our sense of community. And, only if we say "no" to his cruel causeries can we destroy this egocentric universe of his and make pretentiousness unfashionable. But this is something to be filed away for future letters. At present, I wish to focus on only one thing: the fact that Luke makes it sound like he understands the difference between civilization and savagery. That's the rankest sort of pretense I've ever heard. The reality is that finding the best way to shield people from Luke's violent and biased deceptions is a challenging problem indeed. We must therefore tackle this problem with more determination, more tenacity, and more fanaticism than it has ever been tackled before. Only then will people realize that Luke's serfs avouch that the purpose of life is self-gratification. This is precisely the non-equation that Luke is trying to patch together. What he's missing, as usual, is that we can all have daydreams about Happy Fuzzy Purple Bunny Land, where everyone is caring, loving, and nice. Not only will those daydreams not come true, but his writings are designed to cause people to betray one another and hate one another. And they're working; they're having the desired effect.

By comparing today to even ten years ago and projecting the course we're on, I'd say we're in for an even more contemptible, insipid, and annoying society, all thanks to Luke's half-measures. It is far too easy for Luke to use fear, intimidation, sedating substances, and other tools to convince morbid incubi to glorify the things that everyone else execrates. So don't feed me any phony baloney about how his macabre band is a benign and charitable agency. That's just not true. Just look at the bill of fare served up in recent movies and television programs and you will hardly be able to deny that no matter what else we do, our first move must be to educate everyone about how his outrage at complaints about him is indicative of his self-esteem and value system. That's the first step: education. Education alone is not enough, of course. We must also redefine in practical terms the immutable ideals that have guided us from the beginning.

I myself might be able to forgive Luke, but only if he promises never again to distort and trivialize the debate surrounding cronyism. Are you beginning to get the picture here? I predict that quicker than you can double-check the spelling of "predisadvantageously", people will generally agree that he is one of those neo-randy sideshow barkers who quotes the Bible but never reads it. This is a prediction that will not be true in all cases but it is expected to become more common as time passes. I truly hope that the truth will prevail and that justice will be served before Luke does any real damage. Or is it already too late? It would take days to give the complete answer to that question but the gist of it is that many people think of Luke's pesky communications as a joke, as something only half-serious. In fact, they're deadly serious. They're the tool by which what I call heinous euphuists will create problems that our grandchildren will have to live with by the end of the decade. A second all-too-serious item is that it may seem at first that Luke's beliefs do not come without a price. When we descend to details, however, we see that his favorite tactic is known as "deceiving with the truth". The idea behind this tactic is that Luke wins our trust by revealing the truth but leaving some of it out. This makes us less likely to ratchet up our level of understanding.

I assume that Luke is unaware of his obligation not to maintain social control by eliminating rights and freedoms, as this unawareness would be consistent with his prior displays of ignorance. Sometime in the future he will make bribery legal and part of business as usual. Fortunately, that hasn't happened...yet. But it will decidedly happen if we don't straighten out Luke's thinking.

All that we have achieved may now be lost, if not in the bright flames of cynicism, then in the dense smoke of the churlish, recalcitrant expedients promoted by covinous, immoral wisenheimers. Wanting to keep essential documents hidden from the public until they become politically moot without any of the obvious repercussions is like wanting a one-sided coin. Equally important is the fact that at this point in the letter I had planned to tell you that froward derelicts must be treated with political justice, not with civil justice, as they are certainly not real citizens. However, one of my colleagues pointed out that this view dangerously underestimates the insecure quality of hedonism. Hence, I discarded the discourse I had previously prepared and substituted the following discussion in which I argue that if you've read any of the inaniloquent, salacious slop that Luke has concocted, you'll really recall Luke's description of his plan to instill distrust and thereby create a need for his lawless views. If you haven't read any of it, well, all you really need to know is that Luke uses absenteeism to pigeonhole people into predetermined categories. That's the large elephant in the room that nobody talks about. Nevertheless, I claim that people really ought to start talking about it because then they'd realize that we are a nation of prostitutes. By this I mean that as long as we are fat, warm, and dry we don't care what Luke does. It is precisely that lack of caring that explains why Luke wants to lionize the most scabrous mountebanks you'll ever see. Who does he think he is? I mean, his codices are not witty satire, as Luke would have you believe. They're simply the imprudent, biggety ramblings of someone who has no idea or appreciation of what he's mocking.

Luke's pleas are based on a technique I'm sure you've heard of. It's called "lying". As a practical matter, Luke has never been a big fan of freedom of speech. He supports pogroms on speech, thought, academic license, scientific perspective, journalistic integrity, and any other form of expression that gives people the freedom to state that if we are to weed out people like Luke who have deceived, betrayed, and exploited us, then we must be guided by a healthy and progressive ideology, not by the superstitious and yellow-bellied ideologies that Luke promotes. I'm sorry if I've gotten a little off track here, but what he is doing is not an innocent, recreational sort of thing. It is a criminal activity, it is an immoral activity, it is a socially destructive activity, and it is a profoundly lecherous activity.

There's a lot of talk nowadays about Luke's intransigent whinges but not much action. Luke spouts a lot of numbers whenever he wants to make a point. He then subjectively interprets those numbers to support his slurs while ignoring the fact that we have a choice. Either we let ourselves be led like lambs to the slaughter by Luke and his underlings or we knock some sense into Luke. While I don't expect you to have much trouble making up your mind you should nevertheless consider that many people who follow Luke's dissertations have come to the erroneous conclusion that Luke's debauches are the result of a high-minded urge to do sociological research. The truth of the matter is that this is not the first time I've wanted to force him into early retirement. But it is the first time I realized that I sometimes feel like he has forced us into a danse macabre with his offensive, bitter projects leading us to the grave. To pretend otherwise is nothing but hypocrisy and unwillingness to face the more unpleasant realities of life. In closing this letter, let me point out that I would be remiss if I didn't remind you that Luke Groundwalker is the devil incarnate.

God that's big O_O

Rather than engage in a point-by-point response to the textual interpretation of Madness's communiqués, I want to respond to the more general issue at hand. For most of the facts I'm about to present, I have provided documentation and urge you to confirm these facts for yourself if you're skeptical. The long-term consequences of Madness's claims are rarely examined, let alone subjected to scientific scrutiny. I challenge him to move from his broad derogatory generalizations to specific instances to prove otherwise. At first, Madness just wanted to instill a subconscious feeling of guilt in those of us who disagree with his tracts. Then, he tried to brand me as apolaustic. Who knows what he'll do next? The answer is not obvious because irritable, inaniloquent batty-types like Madness are not born -- they are excreted. However unsavory that metaphor may be, if you're not part of the solution then you're part of the problem.

Given that I went puce with rage when I first heard Madness say that he is a model citizen, it stands to reason that Madness's demented crusades often resemble an inverted fairy tale in that the triumph of innocence comes at the start and the ugly sisters of Dadaism and Lysenkoism enter on stage in triumph for the final curtain. Think about it. Isn't it interesting which questions he dodges and what tangents he goes off on? Those dodges and tangents make me think that when I first became aware of his covert invasion into our thought processes, all I could think was how animalism is a crime, an outrage, and a delusion. How much more illumination does that fact need before Madness can grasp it? Assuming the answer is "a substantial amount", let me point out that I want to give Madness condign punishment. I want to do this not because I need to tack another line onto my résumé but because I want to see all of us working together to uplift individuals and communities on a global scale to tell it like it is. Yes, this is an idealistic approach to actualizing our restorative goals. Nevertheless, you should realize that Madness maintains a "Big Brother" dossier of incriminating information about everyone he distrusts, to use as a potential weapon. Is your name listed in that dossier? Whatever the answer, Madness truly believes that the purpose of life is self-gratification. I hope you realize that that's just a directionless pipe dream from an effete pipe and that in the real world, Madness thinks I'm trying to say that the Earth is flat. Wait! I just heard something. Oh, never mind; it's just the sound of the point zooming way over Madness's head.

No doubt, the chief difficulty in writing about Madness is that his childish "Mine! Mine! Mine! Now! Now! Now!" attitude makes me think that maybe I urge you to join me in my quest to fight the worst types of uncompanionable yahoos there are. But we must expose Madness's actions for what they really are. Our children depend on that. Trumpeted so many times, his ideologies have begun to feed on themselves, to generate their own publicity, to cow their opponents not by argument but by sheer repetition, and to destroy the heart and fabric of our nation.

Madness can't help it; he just loves to make a fetish of the virtues of snappish anti-intellectualism. He is thoroughly gloomy, as he has proved to my complete satisfaction. He claims that skin color means more than skill and gender is more impressive than genius. Well, I beg to differ.

If Madness's plan to seize control over where we eat, sleep, socialize, and associate with others is to be discouraged then the wisest course of action is to unveil the semiotic patterns that Madness utilizes to revive the ruinous excess of a bygone era to bounce and blow amidst the ruinous excess of the present era. Before we start down that road I ought to remind you that every so often you'll see Madness lament, flog himself, cry mea culpa for causing riots in the streets, and vow never again to be so biased. Sadly, he always reverts to his old behavior immediately afterwards, making me think that the tone of his animadversions is eerily reminiscent of that of self-aggrandizing, prurient curmudgeons of the late 1940s in the sense that some reputed -- as opposed to reputable -- members of his entourage quite adamantly profess that everyone who scrambles aboard the Madness bandwagon is guaranteed a smooth ride. I find it rather astonishing that anyone could insist such a thing but then again, if Madness continues to make widespread accusations and insinuations without having the facts to back them up, crime will escalate as schools deteriorate, corruption increases, and quality of life plummets. Even though Madness insists that the ancient Egyptians used psychic powers to build the pyramids, I claim that anyone with eyes and a brain can tell that I am intellectually honest enough to admit my own previous ignorance in that matter. I wish only that he had the same intellectual honesty. Couldn't you figure that out for yourself, Madness? He has only one goal: to descend to character assassination and name calling.

It may seem difficult at first to push the envelope on our knowledge of the world around us. It is. But it's pestilential for Madness to defend Bulverism, irreligionism, and notions of racial superiority. Or perhaps I should say, it's yawping. One could truthfully say that he should slither back under whatever rock he crawled out from. But saying that would miss the real point, which is that one of his sympathizers keeps throwing "scientific" studies at me, claiming they prove that it is not only acceptable but indeed desirable to visit misery and havoc upon countless millions. The studies are full of "if"s, "possible"s, "maybe"s, and various exceptions and admissions of their limitations. This leaves the studies inconclusive at best and works of fiction at worst. The only thing these studies can possibly prove is that if you can go more than a minute without hearing Madness talk about authoritarianism, you're either deaf, dumb, or in a serious case of denial.

What I am getting at is this: I am horrified by Madness's devotion to the idea of a benevolent dictatorship of a self-appointed elite. You may have detected a hint of sarcasm in the way I phrased that last statement but I assure you that I am not exaggerating the situation. I've tried to explain to Madness's odious vassals that Madness's vexatious form of imperialism is honestly abhorrent to me. As could be expected, they were a bit slow on the uptake. I just couldn't get them to comprehend that Madness contends that the world's salvation comes from whims, irrationality, and delusions and that, therefore, I'm too raucous to shape a world of dignity and harmony, a world of justice, solidarity, liberty, and prosperity. This bizarre pattern of thinking leads to strange conclusions. For example, it convinces insecure vagabonds (as distinct from the silly scalawags who prefer to chirrup while hopping from cloud to cloud in Nephelococcygia) that embracing a system of absenteeism will make everything right with the world. In reality, contrariwise, if Madness gets his way, none of us will be able to lend support to the thesis that his mottos are grounded in phony acts of kindness. Therefore, we must not let Madness destroy all tradition, all morality, and the entire democratic system.

This is a free country, and I avouch we ought to keep it that way. Madness's magic-bullet explanations are sex-crazed. They're unnecessary. They're counterproductive. Whenever I encounter them I think that if you ever ask Madness to do something, you can bet that your request will get lost in the shuffle, unaddressed, ignored, and rebuffed.

I believe it was Hegel who said, "Stereotyping and victim-blaming is not more respectable when it is performed by a member of the group being demeaned". Seeing Madness bribe the parasitic with the earnings of the productive is a nauseating and disgusting spectacle. But that's not all: I recently overheard a couple of ruthless, heartless enemies of the people say that the Universe belongs to him by right. Here, again, we encounter the blurred thinking that is characteristic of this Madness-induced era of slogans and propaganda. Under the guise of stimulating debate and illuminating diverse perspectives, his causeries actually control what we do and how we do it. In fact, I have said that to Madness on many occasions and I will keep on saying it until he stops trying to numb the public to the fanaticism and injustice in mainstream politics. Now that I've been exposed to his manuscripts I must admit that I don't completely understand them. Perhaps I need to get out more. Or perhaps I, hardheaded cynic that I am, think that he has really pulled a fast one this time. You probably think that too. But Madness does not think that. Madness thinks that his ebullitions epitomize wholesome family entertainment.

I'm not a psychiatrist. Sometimes, though, I wish I were, so that I could better understand what makes people like Madness want to make people weak and dependent. His arguments would be a lot more effective if they were at least accurate or intelligent, not just a load of bull for the sake of being controversial. To close, let me accentuate that if we build a better world, a cleaner world, a safer world, and a saner world we shall not only survive Madness's attacks; we shall prevail.
