To: 8bits who wrote (16779 ) 4/10/2007 5:23:13 AM From: Maurice Winn Respond to of 217887 Me tweak? TJ really is a rabid racist. For example, he thinks that all Chinese think alike, there's no need for elections or referenda to see whether invading Taiwan is a Gung Ho idea, he believes in the sacred chromo-lattice awe-inspiring Genghis Khan Y chromosome, he denigrates Americans, who are a race as much as Chinese are a race though they have a wider spread of DNA than the Chinese do. Also, the first person to use the accusation "racist" in an argument wins, so I had to hurry, even if my evidence was not totally impermeable. In the same way, using the words "sustainable" and "denier" are excellent argument winners, obviating the need for reasoning or using actual data. I haven't kept a filing system with TJ's rabid racism, but I have seen it all over the place. He is also incoherent, declaring the future unpredictable, while maintaining that the outcome in regard to Taiwan, and Uncle Al KBE's monetary management, followed by Big Ben's helicopter tactics which is taking us to TeoTwawki, are inevitable. Simultaneously, the future is unpredictable but TJ can say not just that it is inevitable, but where it is going. I recommend he have a good lie down, a nice cup of tea, a deep breath, some reflexology, stay away from his Beijing masters, go Troppo, drink pineapple juice and play with Coconut in the ocean. And, get a sibling going! Many racists are self-hating, which is not to say TJ is one of them. I haven't noticed anything in that regard. On the contrary, self-love is a forte, which is not necessarily a bad thing. With such an eclectic bunch of DNA he has plenty of himself to hate. But really, his DNA is no more eclectic than anybody else's as he just has the normal quota of DNA, some bits more common than others, but doubtfully unique in any way other than in some unfortunate mutations which probably won't cause him or his offspring any untoward life events. TJ also seems to have a bit of a feuding mindset with the English, failing to acknowledge the great advantages they generously provided him. Maybe it was the Boxer rebellion, handed down from grandfather to grandson. Plenty of people around the world want to fight battles from not just one, but two centuries and even millennia ago. Mqurice PS: In ecological arguments, two uses of "sustainable" and "sustainability", preferably combined with "wetlands" [previously called swamps] and two accusations of "denier", comprises a winning argument with no causal chain of reasoning or facts needed. In sociological argument, one use of "racist" is enough to win. Note that the archaic usage "racialist" is ineffectual as it suggests the accuser is out of date. "Hate language" is quite a good accusation too - somewhat more sophisticated than "racist" but essentially meaning the same.
