OK troll I mark this phrase out as one you have been repeating again and again for the purpose of hurting my online reputation. I challenge you to make your case for this charge. Tell everyone the reasons you have for making it about me over and over again so that they can decide why you are repeating this phrase on every post were you mention my name. Let's see my own evidence for calling you a troll: with his > open support of Barry and azgrey. You may accept him - but please leave me > > out of this. Remember I goad, insult and slay his ass day in and day out,> at > my fancy, at my will, Goad, and insult and the fey "slay" are all terms which perfectly describe the internet phenomenon known as trolling. You have repeated this agenda before. It is your only reason for posting on a site devoted to a group you were never in. You are a disruptive force here repeating baseless accusations hoping that the accumulation of repeated phrases will hurt my online reputation. and all he can do is Strategy # 1 - try to twist, > manipulate the audience, Rick and Strategy # 2 - cry wolf, accuse others of > > being racist,misogynist, homophobic. I don't doubt that I have pointed out phrase in posts that I felt were misogynistic or homophobic. I am against these behaviors although they are judgement calls we all have to make for ourselves. The charge that I somehow twist or manipulate the audience is a charge too odd to respond to. I write here, you write here, people decide for themselves what's up. > > You don't know the amount of disgust, contempt I have for these shameless,> > clueless bastards, the metaphorical Rakshasaas, demons, metaphor for their> > deception. Actually I think everyone does. You are projecting something on me that is dark and then you are chasing your projection around here. And it isn't the oddly paranoid characterizations you make of me that I object to. It is your studied technique of repeating specific phrases, unfounded charges of being anti woman or anti gay along with my name that puts you on my radar. If you want to be an incoherent troll and tell the world how a horrible person I am I couldn't care less. But when you repeat specific charges again and again without supporting them with any evidence that others can assess for themselves, you are crossing a line here. > > Share - I remember a beautiful story of how Divine Mother would keep > slaying this demon, but he would constantly change forms and Divine Mother > would keep on slaying him - I don't remember how it ended :-) - but this is > what Curtis is - this demon of deception who keeps changing forms- in his > case, keeps changing the context, crying wolf while using his deceptive > charm through his writing. Sickening, disgusting Rakshasaas - Having someone refer to me in this way online is very strange. But even to a casual reader, the nature of the writer is evident. Stick to this kind of babble and you will never hear from me. But now you need to show us why you have repeated the specific charges you have made about me, or my case for your agenda for maligning my online reputation will have been made by me.
