@mattcarolan What are you talking about? Her book is the endless dross of an anti-social 4th grader with a gift for narrative and language that is matched only by an actual smoke detector. For 1,000 pages it's nothing but: "Let Tyranny Reign! Let Democracy Fall! Let the World Burn!"

No it's not the biggest selling novel by far. W B is wrong again.

How revealing- the impostor loon shows up to drool nonsense at midnight, as if they had a real life...late-night idiocy is apparently all 'subject g175wb', imitator of my handle (never myself) has.

@Bellantoni, we "straight" men (wink wink) will have to postpone our queer mastur-debates, such fun for a couple of gay Unabomber types. It's nice to have a dear friend like you, as I have no women in my life and no friends. Hours spent online as we have today substitute for mentally healthy, normal social interaction. And while I wax about phantom nemeses, other readers of this thread see us as profoundly odd and dysfunctional.

One two, Fuck You,

Three four, Bitch Whore.

@Bellantoni- will have to curtail the interesting debate for anon; the loon is back.

Another time, perhaps.

[TempIarLeonem]

@Bellantoni, notice the impostor with whom you've been having 'social' intercourse; the vile puer interposes "l" for "I" and I of course am the actual Temp"l"a -rLeon"e"m. g17wtf is a homo, a buttfucker, a cocksucker, a motherfucker...sorry, I got carried away. Nonetheless, it is as if you are dating one of a set of twins, and you come to find after having sex one evening that you just fucked the wrong twin, one who played a joke on you. Beware.

[Bellantoni]

Glibness as I see it is the projection you cast when you say I'm the one claiming a great deal without citation.

Where did I say violations of human rights have been eradicated in the world? I did say that these things have been improving significantly and I can demonstrate it by asking you to compare the standards of every country you mentioned with what they were 100 years ago. Do the same for Europe, America, Australia, and Latin America for that matter.

See the difference?

[TempIarLeonem]

@Bellantoni, this is fun, you and I exchanging witty intellectual jousts; it reinforces each of our own self perceptions as somehow having worth in society. Of course, as a pair of queers, we'd rather joust over WFB debate videos than watch sports or auto videos. I notice your viewing list; you are a real flaming queer -- I'm impressed. Let's exchange more than these words--let's exchange bodily fluids (into each others' rectums). I love you.

[TemplarLeonem]

You claim a great deal without substantive citation.

One feels you are being glib again.

Human rights are not respected in Russia, China, Iran, Iraq, Afghanistan, most sub-Saharan Africa, India, Pakistan...

Could list more, but have made point.

Economic conditions also less than optimal...

@TemplarLeonem And by the way the common is people. Saying that they are incapable of self-government is identical to saying that people are incapable of self-government. But alas the concession has been made.
