Our Randy. The ginseng one.

But what does that have to do with a guy who writes political commentary?  :asthing: Are you saying his commentary is as inane as Randy's?
You'll never self-actualize the subconscious canopy of stardust with that attitude.

Randy was batshit crazy and used to say stuff that almost looked like it was English but was really a dialect of crazy saying crazy things for crazy reasons

"Ginger snaps  :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:  :wanker: :wanker: :wanker: :wanker: :wanker: I just took a ginseng suppository. I used to spend all day wanking in my basement but now through self-improvement I only wank half a day. Herp. You aspies have to improve yourself. I can only teach you so much   :wanker: :wanker: :wanker: :wanker: I snort ground ginger root. Derp."

Shit like this ^^^^^^ is not normal
I2 today is not i2 of yesteryear. It is a knitting circle. Those that participate be they nice or asshats know their place and the price to be there. Odeon is the overlord

.Benevolent if you toe the line.

Think it is I2 of old? Even Odeon is not so delusional as to think otherwise. He may on occasionally pretend otherwise but his base is that knitting circle.

Censoring/banning/restricting/moderating myself, Calanadale & Scrapheap were all not his finest moments.

I did say "something of a". I also said "great mind". :P

No, I don't mean as nonsensical, deluded, etc, I simply mean that to me he has frequently felt like as if he was all over the place, thought-wise.

Hmm. Not sure that clarifies anything.

He cuts to the chase.  Exposes the lies. Believes that he system cannot be reformed.  Is an anarchist.

Any dictator would admire the uniformity and obedience of the U.S. media.

He's a tenured professor who can say anything without reprocussion.  How is that brave?

I enjoy being a contrarian.  It drives some of my Facebook friends nuts, but seeing them make political statements only to have people respond with "ditto" replies drives me nuts.  What is the point of free speech if you are never in a position to defend it?
