cybernoughts ...


.. the filthy flies in our new freedom-ointment!

-=*=-

We don't 'do' conspiracies; what we do is we open our eyes and we look. What we see - in Iraq, say, or in the now sadly, mostly ex-Palestine, is foreign invaders; in the case of Iraq via the "Shockin' Whore!" illegal invasion now morphed into a brutal, murdering occupation, or in the case of ex-Palestine, a sneaky-trick dispossession (so-called UN-mandated), 'supported' by, also from before, during and after down to this very day, murdering state terrorism (thanks but "No, thanks!" to the IDF, better IOF where O=offence), also a nasty, murdering form of brutal occupation. In an attempt to conceal these crimes - and many similar others, see resource rip-offs almost everywhere, "Economic Hit Man" & "Shock Doctrine," say - we are swamped with lies. The 'responsible' (actually, of course, irresponsible) politicians, usually mostly the puppets of the again misnamed, so-called 'ruling élites' (élite is not a good term for criminals), we see a 'smoke-screen' of lies, a pastiche of misleading bumpf, all of which I refer to as the pushed-paradigm; propaganda by any other name. All'a this bumpf comes gushing out'a the most prevalent source: the traitorous (flat-panel/wide-screen) TVs we import, not just voluntarily but almost obsessively, right into our own homes. And this programming/'news' propaganda-pastiche is conveyed to us from the Harvard Business School (for sharks), Madison Ave. and Hollywood by the (corrupt, venal!) MSM. Even the 'news' itself is often outright lies.

Since we got the internet we can largely bypass the venal MSM, and we have been doing so - in blogs just like this, say. But there's a filthy fly landed in our new freedom-ointment! Let us have look then, at cybernoughts.

We, the serious (honest!) bloggers have the task, of counteracting - well, wrong word: exposing - them, these wicked flies, the 'blog charlatans' for what they are, namely cybernoughts[1]. These include sundry liars such as outright trolls, along with pushed-paradigm apologists and/or propagandists, those whose only desires seem to be to provoke dissension, division & distraction in vile attempts at derailing worthwhile discussions, i.e. those set on preventing sorely needed progress, my collective term for whom is 'antidestinationists' - Phew! - Well, that's who we have to confront - again the wrong word: prevail over.

The countervailing powers we deploy are two: point out the truth, in contrast to the cybernoughts' lies, red herrings, non sequiturs or whatever else they deploy to destroy productive dialogs, and otherwise totally ignore them.

[1] cybernought, from cyber[2] + nought[3].

a form of internet-troll whose œuvre is otherwise meaningless rubbish, as in consisting of little more than rehashing the lying propaganda, aka the pushed-paradigm transmitted from crooked politicians (the vast majority), or on behalf of same via, and even augmented by, the (venal!) MSM.

It is thought the intention of cybernoughts coincides with what we see, i.e. their efforts hindering discussions towards rescuing our once jewel-like planet from the ghastly grip of greed, say.

Hear, hear. You tell it as it is, Phil. Down with all trolls and nitpickers, I say!

Cheers.

Yep, God save us from the nitpickers who actually know who the Governor of Florida is. Hint, Dave: try to keep up - Jeb Bush hasn't beeen Governor for more than a year after term limit laws meant he could not seek a third term.

Trolls don't improve ideas but 'nitpickers' can.

G'day Dylan,

we assume that this marks your claim for dual-cybernought status...

Hey, Phil, give Dylan his moment of glory. He's been scouring my blog for ages looking for an error and he's finally found a tiny one (not that it had anything to do with the thrust of the post). Well done, Dylan! Take a bow.

I'd like to meet up with Dylan in about twenty years, Phil. I reckon by then he might have achieved some maturity. That achievement would surely counterbalance his impetuosity and his strong psychological need to support the status quo no matter how badly flawed it is.

Onya, Dylan!

Of course - it wouldn't be 'nitpicking' otherwise, would it? By definition nitpicking is concerned with matters of little consequence.

And like I mentioned, nitpicking can improve posts - the proof being where you changed your own to bring it into 2008.

Onya, Dave!

Take my advice, Dylan. Never appear in Court and try to defend yourself. You'll end up getting yourself hung.

Self-incrimination, it's called!

Cheers.
