LinearA

Post by Surlethe »

LinearA stands before the Imperial Senate accused of the following transgressions in this thread:
  • Violation of Posting Rule 9 (thread necromancy)
  • Violations of Debating Rule 5 (broken-record tactics)
  • Violations of Posting Rule 3 (serial dishonesty)
Esteemed and honored colleagues, what shall we do about this?
A Government founded upon justice, and recognizing the equal rights of all men; claiming higher authority for existence, or sanction for its laws, that nature, reason, and the regularly ascertained will of the people; steadily refusing to put its sword and purse in the service of any religious creed or family is a standing offense to most of the Governments of the world, and to some narrow and bigoted people among ourselves.

Throw him out. Basically it's becoming a long winded circular hell for nothing then more then someone wanting writer's intent taken into consideration.

There's necromancy and then there's necromany just to hit us with a broken record which is worse, off with his head.

Bye, Bye, Linear. Energize.
Something about Libertarianism always bothered me. Then one day, I realized what it was:
Libertarian philosophy can be boiled down to the phrase, "Work Will Make You Free."


In Libertarianism, there is no Government, so the Bosses are free to exploit the Workers.
In Communism, there is no Government, so the Workers are free to exploit the Bosses.
So in Libertarianism, man exploits man, but in Communism, its the other way around!

It's a shame because he's obviously intelligent and well spoken, but broken record tactics get you shown the door here, as they well should. Ban.

Toss him out for all the aforementioned reason.

I wonder if we'll get a third banning in and have a Holiday Bannathon?

To be honest, I think that little ratfuck knows perfectly well that he got his ass kicked in that debate, which is why he came back after a month just to raise the dead thread and repeat himself like a broken record despite knowing full well that according to our posted rules, we ban people who do that. The idea is to get banned so he can save face and pretend that he was winning but we banned him because we can't handle dissent.

Of course, it's also possible that he's so fucking stupid that he genuinely doesn't understand the points being raised against his position or the clearly stated rule that he can't argue by simply repeating himself ad nauseum. But I suspect he's just trying to spin-doctor his abortion of an argument. Of course, that plan would require that we can't see through his little plan and point out what he's doing. So either way, he's an idiot.

Small note as with my reminder in the other thread we still need a few more votes to make quorum so vote if you haven't.

Voted for a temp ban, since I thought the whole purpose of a temp ban was for guys just like this who break debating rules but haven't received any administrative action before. Given the poll results, it was fairly pointless of me to vote that way, but that's what I think, so that's how I voted.
