That's not a citation. A citation would involve providing a link to the relevant article, for instance, or at least title, date, author, location where we can find it. That kind of thing. Understand?
But that's the point.
I actually know what he's talking about, but it's kind of funny that way: The one way to get the white supremacist militia on the same side as the Jewish president is to invade the country. We Americans would like to think our right wingers would do the same, but for all their talk of patriotism it's not clear that they would. Or perhaps Russia should invade the U.S. in order to denazify the Trilateral Commission of Proud Boys, Three Percenters, and Oath Keepers collaborating with George Soros to secretly run the Biden regime.
In the end, this sort of desperate disinformation is what some of our neighbors have left in their toolkits. Anti-fluoride, anti-vax, satcomm tinfoilers, Christian Sabbatarians, backwood militiamen, and the list, even from my lifetime, just goes on. The thing is that it's about empowerment, and at levels personal and social, familial, official, societal, and even cosmological, people desperate just to feel like not every last thing in their living experience is out of their control will say some amazingly stupid things in order to feel like they have an effective hand in it. Mainline American conservatism hasn't been much different; it's just that when the illogic of certain traditionalism became so blatantly apparent that people couldn't ignore it, some desperate souls flung themselves out into fantasy. And while it can seem shocking in larger political issues, it's actually fairly common: Maybe it seemed strange when the moralists argued their fundamental moral corruption as the justification for merit of privilege, but the grassroots "dissatisfaction", as such, has been going on for a while. In its weird way, and within our Sciforums context, it's the same craven impulse for empowerment driving someone like Sculptor to denigrate himself shitting all over discussions this way as it was several years back when one of our longtime members went off about waifu dovi masturbatory fantasy in order to feel like he was having some sort of effect in people's lives. Sometimes, when people make fools of themselves, they do so because it is all they have left.
Citations? References? These people don't actually care about that, James; that's not their point or purpose.
Hey, do you remember the other day when someone was saying something about a lack of nuance? Yeah, the joke that goes here is so recursive it becomes tesseract. Wait 'til we get to the part about the lack of nuance seeking shelter in complaints about this or that lack of nuance. And remember, this has nothing to do with the nuance in my opinion of the lack of nuance about your regard for my opinion assessing a lack of nuance in your assessment of the nuances of my opinion.
Oh, right, Ukraine: Apparently the Jewish guy is a Nazi waifu.
