	Sure. And being gay is a disease that is cured with
	electroshocks and lobotomies. Oh and you are a master of
	'biological' political 'theory'. No, not just ivory tower
	theory. What you say is REAL REALITY (TM)

	"Autistic" - you just keep polishing your pseudo scientific
	garbage eh. Now you are firmly in the grounds of fascist
	'psychiatric' 'science'.

	Sure. If such an alpha master of intelectual thought like you
	says so, I will obey.

	Sure. Violence is wrong according to pacifists, but allowing
	people to be killed, including oneself, is 'right' - I laugh my
	ass off at the STUPIDITY of it. 

	Feel free to lecture me again with that kind of stupidity as if
	it wasn't sheer stupidity...

	So, first you bring up a topic. Then you accuse ME of bringing
	up the topic...YOU brought up. And now the problem is that I
	'zeroed in' on it. 

	Oh, and if I mention that YOU brought the topic up, since, you
	know, you accused me of doing it, then "This is all about some
	mental dick-measuring contest" 

	Any more self-parody you'd like to share?

	If you say so. And good for them.

	Why would I bother 'thinking' about it when such a great

	poor betas?

	I'm glad they voted for obama!

	Ah, the americunt dream! Or the british dream? Your story is

	Nope it isn't. Now I get it. Thank you massa!

	In xorcist's Real Reality there are no fugitive slaves.

	What, on fucking earth, makes you think I'm interested in any
	paternalistic, psychobabbling nonsense from you? 
	
	The topic, as far as I was concerned was what practical things
	could be done to limit state power, not to "give meaning to my
	life".

	Au contraire. I was interested in a concrete reply, but
	admitedly, only to illustrate the flaws in your position.

	Are you autistic or what. YOUR first message whining about off
	topic posts was nothing but STUPID 'confrontational' bullshit.
	And now you are crying because you got 'confronted'? Pathetic.

	Has NOTHING to do with limiting state power.

	Oh, that's more interesting. So you have first hand knowledge
	on how the 'infrastructure' is sabotaged, or do you even do the
	sabotage yourself?

	Ah, 'oppressive' governents in the 'third' world. That would be
	governemtns that didn't follow CIA/Foreign Office orders?

	That is fucking obvious. What you've done is the exact
	opposite.
