You are still failing to understand English. And resorting to ad hominem. Lose lose lose.
Hmm. Interesting. It sounds like you are alleging that Juan has failed to understand English. Let's unpack this shall we? "No!" I hear you say? OK, let's unpack it anyway... 1) Firstly, you wrote this:

Now I might be slow, but I do note the words [0-5, 13-15], which if I decode this masterful encoding which massively reduces the amount of space required in an email to reference specific words in another's quote, is actually the following sequence of words:
What this does not include is plotting their demise
Oh, and the nounal object of your quote is "political systems", so to flesh it out:
What this does not include is plotting the demise of political systems
OK, got it. Since you tried to be subtle about it, with appeals to authority, cutting down some really vile straw men and establishing yourself as the "need"ed go to (when I say "go to" I mean "authority"), i.e. just sort of "slipping it in, hopefully sorta may be under the radar", we were, unfortunately, "need"ing to unpack your position. So, we got it, "Do NOT plot the DEMISE of Political Systems, of which I am closely associated." Because, you know, that would serious be offtopic for this list and a REAL violation of John Young and Tim May's foundations for what's on topic to be discussed on this list, and you gonna teach us all a real bad ass lesson if we violate those absolute, in stone, unviolable, rules. Got it. Anarchy bad. USA goverment good. SDW authority. Simple really. Escapes me why I never thunked of these simple truths before ... ? ? ??? Silly me.. 2) Now, secondly, Juan said this:

And note that little bit about "crypto anarchy: collapse of governments". Hmm, ok, Juan's response is quite simple really. It says what it means, provides a factual basis, and means what it says. The very definition of integrity. Thanks Juan, we need a bit of clarity occasionally. Really appreciated. Top stuff! 3) Now, finally, you said this:
You are still failing to understand English.
Except that this was factual, which it's not, this is a slur, a few words designed to bypass any real debate and degrade the character of your target. I'm pretty sure this technique has a proper name ... something like adding to homo sapiens names or something ... can't quite remember it...
And resorting to ad hominem.
AHHHH!!! YES!!! That's what it is called. THANK you Stephen, I'd forgottten just for a moment - you just used an "ad hominem". Well well well. I wonder what we're supposed to say now. I'll check above for further guidance. ... .. . ... Found it! The end of your email Stephen: Lose lose lose.
