Agreed, when nobody responds to a topic, it dies, that is if certain people can resist the temptation to respond.  Which here in I2, resistance is lacking and futile!  More people would be leaving if ignored, but, then this place would die if people were ignored or not responded to. 

Quite a curious paradox, I'd say!   :laugh:  Then only randy would be the one eyed king in the land of the blind!   :-*

But Copernicus... ...wasn't deluded.
Are you saying the Sun really is the centre of the universe then!!! :o :evillaugh:
You don't have to be delusional to be wrong, but, as in Illusionist's case, it sure helps.  :LMAO:

Good reply, but I didn't say Copernicus was 'delusional'. Believing something that is incorrect is a delusion, whether the individual is 'delusional' or sane. You do not need to be delusional to be deluded about something.

I know you didn't say he was delusional, Nocti. It was just a too good reply to be wasted. :evillaugh:

If anyone is reciting vintage wartime propaganda, it's you. Straight out of Herr Goebbels handbook. Right down to the 'zig heil' and the SS insignia on the Nazi uniform.

"Zig" heil?

I'm just reciting facts, old man. If you don't care to disprove them, then there's no point in speaking at all.

I don't give a crap if you find it offensive or not. Your whole dissertation is offensive in the extreme; and to claim otherwise is contempt for humanity.

I'm just telling facts. If facts are offensive to you, that's not my problem. That just means you can't handle the facts.

It matters, fuckwit, because when you have been told hundreds of time that nobody cares about your shit, you keep on like a broken record. What are you, fucking deaf or insane?

The more you whine, the less you can convince me to stop speaking. There is little I loathe more than offensive hypocrites like yourself and I would continue this only to taunt you if for no other reason.

If you only told us your viewpoint, and didn't expect everyone to be converted to your side, then I wouldn't be worried.

Then you shouldn't be worried.

But you hold a metaphorical machine gun to our heads and try to drum it into us.

I don't. I just expect people to either shut up or use arguments when they speak out against my views, like mature people do.

What if IU did similar to you?

I would actually love that. In my experience, that's how the most interesting debates get started.

Hardly a comparison between someone who was proposing an astronomical system and the biggest mass murderer of his day.

Copernicus was someone who questioned the status quo with logically argumented statements that were in conflict with the sensitivities and prejudice of his days, yet all he did was speak the truth. My situation is exactly the same. The only difference is that my views deal with history and his views with physics.

quite true.  however, see my point about informed opinion.  your "argument" seems to consist of trying to give credibility to the credentials of the people whose opinions you spout.

My arguments consist largely about mentioning facts that contradict the status quo. For this, I quote both mainstream and non-mainstream sources depending on the nature of the fact. When possible, I try to refer to primary sources. That approach is as scientific as it gets.

really, from your own experience?  then why, as i said above, does your "argument" consist of nothing else but other people's dribblings?

I'm merely applying scientific methods, which includes citing primary and secondary sources. Read any academic historic work and you'll find dozens if not hundreds of references to "other people's dribblings".

nope.  far from it.  the mainstream are, by and large, sheep.  but then, so are certain idiotic splinter/out groups.

True. That's why I don't just a statement based on who made it but rather based on the arguments used for them. If you just a statement based on whether the person making that statement was a communist, a liberal, a conservative, a fascist, a racist or a Buddhist rather than on the actual arguments used, then you are judging by prejudice and you only limit yourself to certain preconceived points of views which just might be false. I know people who absolutely loathe communism, but still love to quote Gramsci on a regular basis. That's what I call objectivity ;)

many things, one being the ability to realise when you're being sucked in by bigotted propaganda.

What makes you so sure it is I and not yourself who's being sucked in by bigotted propaganda?

however, copernicus and newton had original ideas, which necessitated a paradigm shift.  fascist bollocks requires nothing of the sort.

First of all, I thought we were mostly talking about Holocaust revisionism. Holocaust revisionism are two entirely seperate things and although there is an overlapse, far from every Holocaust revisionist is a fascist and vice versa. Some popular Holocaust revisionists are even Jews (think of JG Burg or David Cole for example).

I'm not indoctrinated by anyone. My opinion is the result of a logical analysis of the available data by studying primary and secondary sources from all perspectives. The difference between you and me is probably that you ignore certain sources by default (because of prejudices) and therefore only look at information from a few perspectives rather than all perspectives.

You assume too much.

I only make assumptions when I see no other possible conclusion.

Actually you've chosen to ignore every point made proving you wrong

What points proving me wrong? All you did, was copy-paste a few statements from Nizkor debunked ages ago that addressed less than 10% of the arguments I made and you consistently ignored most of the counterarguments I provided for them. That's hardly what I call being proven wrong.

One of the Nizkor pages you linked to even addressed the Jewish soap myth as a fact, yet you say no problem with that at all. That's quite pathetic, you know?!?

Quite a few scientists then were known to agree with Copernicus, actually, and most of the points he made had been known since ancient Greece.

Quite a few scientists happened to agree with Holocaust Revisionism and Holocaust Revisionism would probably have become mainstream during the '80s or '90s if political groups hadn't put so much pressure against it using threats, social or financial ruining, physical attacks and prison sentences to silence the debate.

Back before the politically correct machine censored this part of history, Holocaust Revisionism was a position taken by prominent historians Harry Elmer Barnes, David L. Hoggan and James J. Martin. AJP Taylor may also be called a "denier" these days. Then, there are also folks like Stephen H Roberts, who visited the Third Reich in the '30s and was very critical of the regime. They don't count as Holocaust Revisionists, but they surely depicted the Third Reich completely different from the way the Third Reich regime of the '30s is describe today.

But Copernicus wasn't a Nazi, and he certainly wasn't deluded. You are. You should join the Flat Earth Society. There is one, you know.

I'm not the deluded one. You are. I stick to the scientific facts in spite of the prejudices of my environment, just like Copernicus.

Your dedication to strawman arguments like these wonderfully illustrates how weak your arguments are. I don't think I even mentioned Rudolf/Konrad in any of my arguments.

Actually, Nizkor and others have debunked every statement you've parroted form your Nazi heroes.

Rassinier, Faurisson, Cole, Burg and many other Holocaust Revisionists are far from "nazis". Your insistance in falsely labeling all Holocaust Revisionists as "nazis" is yet another typical strawman argument.

Further, Nizkor's strawman arguments have been debunked by many and their insistance on the Jewish soap myth being genuine is just plain pathetic. If all you can do is point to "debunking" sites, at least you could use a source that actually complies with the current mainstream ;)

Facts Illusionist? Like denying the existence of the holocaust as was proposed by the Nazi party and it's hangers on. Facts like how the Jews were the enemy to your kind and deserved to be exterminated? Where do you get these bullshit facts? Ah, from some dickwads who happen to support the same cause as yours; some 'third positionist' wankers who want to rewrite history and support the machinations of the biggest group of mass murderers the 20th century (or history for that fact ever saw). Nowwhile I don't necessarily support the number, I don't deny the holocaust. But what you are doing is offensive in the extreme by supporting those views that were the foundation of genocide and terrorism throughout the secon world war. And you expect us to give an insane jerk like you creednece for accepting this shit, and proposing it on us? By doing so, you are showing that you are indeed a candidate for a frontal lobotomy, and your viewpoint is a complete waste. Yes, Copernicus came up with a new theory, and worked hard on it. By comparing him to Hitler, or yourself, you have clearly slipped a cog in reasoning. Hitler was the engineer of the fial solution, while Copernicus was a peaceful man out to prove how the universe worked. You are advocating the return of a genocidal maniac. Hardly a comprison. I see your sources as biased, uninformed, and motivated by bloodlust. The allied soldiers fought long and hard to free the world from this shit, and you want to bring it back again. IQ of 137. Pah!

Facts Illusionist? Like denying the existence of the holocaust as was proposed by the Nazi party and it's hangers on.

All the evidence has been addressed by Holocaust revisionists, who have proven beyond reasonable doubt that no genocide took place. There were concentration camps, there was genocide and there were people dying during WW2 but all this doesn't add up to a genocide just because British black-ops propaganda claimed it did.

Facts like how the Jews were the enemy to your kind and deserved to be exterminated?

Jews were regarded as the enemy of the Third Reich, but the plan was to deport them to a remote location. Some prefered Palestine and some preferred Madagscar, but extermination had never been an option. This would actually have been against national-socialist morallity. In fact, many national-socialists would have regarded such behavior and attitude as Jewish ;)

Where do you get these bullshit facts?

Many of the arguments used by Holocaust revisionists come from primary sources that are available to the public.

Ah, from some dickwads who happen to support the same cause as yours; some 'third positionist' wankers who want to rewrite history and support the machinations of the biggest group of mass murderers the 20th century (or history for that fact ever saw).

Some Holocaust revisionists are national-socialists, Third Positionists or others somewhat sympathetic to Hitler. Other Holocaust Revisionists are communists, Jews, libertarians or liberals.... who have no reason whatsoever to sympathise with Hitler.

I don't deny the holocaust.

I don't deny the proven facts. I only deny obvious propaganda lies.

But what you are doing is offensive in the extreme by supporting those views that were the foundation of genocide and terrorism throughout the secon world war.

I'm merely expressing the conclusions of my research of that era. I can't help you being offended by the truth.

Yes, Copernicus came up with a new theory, and worked hard on it. By comparing him to Hitler, or yourself, you have clearly slipped a cog in reasoning.

I'm comparing Copernicus with Holocaust Revisionists, not with Hitler. You seem to lack certain cognitive abilities if you think you can find a comparison between Copernicus with Hitler in any of my statements.

Hitler was the engineer of the fial solution

The final solution = the forced migration of Jews out of Germany.

I see your sources as biased, uninformed, and motivated by bloodlust.

I see your sources as biased, uninformed, and motivated by bloodlust. To find the objective truth, rational argumentation is required. That's something you appear to be incapable of if you seriously think you can find a comparison between Copernicus with Hitler in any of my statements.

You mentioned "academics" and Rudolf, so I proved that your Rudolf doesn't follow any accepted academic methods.  :hahaha:

All you proved, was that Rudolf for whatever reason used a pseudonym and referenced one of those pseudonyms without clarifying it was himself. You didn't address any of the arguments he used and you didn't address the arguments of other Holocaust Revisionists either. You're using character assassination of a single individual as a strawman argument for ignoring the conclusions of many other individuals.

Let's face it, folks. Delusionist is a closet Nazi.

So what if I am? Does that disprove anything I said? Must someone be lying if he or she is into national-socialist ideology? Are you implying that all national-socialists are liars by default?
