I don't agree with Vinny's premise or the thread op, but let's have a little compassion.
None of us are perfect. I for goddamn sure am not.
What does "being perfect" have to do with it? :confused2:
I have NEVER ONCE taken ANYTHING "personal" here on ESMB. People have attacked me and slammed me for various things - my reaction - YAWN. Who cares? I don't.
If Vin actually "cares" and takes any of this or himself
seriously then it is HIS PROBLEM. I have compassion for people, BUT, there is nothing I can do for all the many people who CREATE their own versions of hell, stupidity or idiocy.
For example I have compassion for people on the RPF, but the simple truth is that MOST of them CHOOSE to be there, because they buy into much of Hubbard's lunatic paradigm. They actually think and believe that they "need" to handle their
evil purposes and reasons for their
downstats and
overt products. But, other than giving them a "loving" strong slap upside the head, what is one to do?
People are free and have the right to be dolts.
I do agree with the fellow who said this:
Forgive them for they KNOW NOT what they do (even with KHTK "tech").
But, regardless, you can't make or even help people to
stop being idiots. :confused2:
It is what it is.
As far as I see things, Vinaire PLAYS GAMES here. He has played games here as long as I have been on ESMB. I doubt he takes ANY of it "seriously". It is all "mock ups", pretend, fiction, "running social experiments", and "creating an effect". He is a guy who has an audience of one - himself - like the person who tells jokes that NOBODY else ever gets.
I can feel compassion for anybody - including pompous arrogant asswipes, BUT, they get what they desreve every time, because they are who they are.
And if he actually does take any of it seriously, if he actually thinks and believes some or most of what he writes here, then he is more messed up than I ever imagined.
I have no idea why exactly, but Vin has consistently "caused trouble" here on ESMB. He is notorious for NOT engaging in serious discussion, and instead often tossing out flippant little one liners that seem aimed at causing nothing except upset, distraction and confusion.
He has been consistently "troll-like". Now, I suppose even trolls need compassion, but that doesn't mean that one has to put up with and accept their bullshit.
