I really don't think terms like "war", or "reject", or whatever have any proper application here anyway. They imply that this wrangling with me is ABOUT something, i.e. about some issue that could possibly be DECIDED, and not just a bunch of psychotics and serious neurotics snarling and tugging over the only thing that can really act as a vent for feelings of aggression and frustration here because it is the only thing that has a name.

Take the question that was asked a few posts back in that "what the fuck" tone that conveyed implicit belief in the myth that the views I hold are always the weird, incomprehensible, perverse, wantonly sadistic views of a bullying psychopath.

I answered it - reasonably and adequately, I think, and in such a way as to demonstrate that there was nothing perverse or sadistic or "what the fuck" about thinking that the question at the head of this thread was a silly one - but no one has said, even perfunctorily: "Oh. I understand what you were saying now. Yeah, you've got a point there." The twitching, yelping, sniggering orgy of Alex-baiting is underway already and it has an absolutely irresistible and inescapable momentum of its own for you people. Discussing things, reasoning about things, deciding things is just no part of it - and the idea of "winning an argument" in such an atmosphere is absurd.

Of course, it's my fault, ultimately, for deciding to come to boards like this and CH (though the latter barely exists any more, having become just a moribund photo-dump for kids and creepy pedophiles, a state this board is, as yet, only about halfway to attaining.) The sole valid question that will ALWAYS be put to me here is: "You don't WANT to be the target of the sad, neurotic spite of a bunch of utterly sterile, deeply unhappy people? Then fucking LEAVE, because that is ALL we have to offer to anyone."
