I want to thank the defenders of misogyny

[Zorra]

236. That is a blatantly deceitful mischaracterization of what I wrote

And it's not the first time you've been caught being deceitful on DU.

Here's the deal: When you stop lying about me, I'll stop telling the truth about you. When you lie about me, you're totally fucking with the wrong Democrat. Yes, bb, "itsadogslife", indeed.

To begin our sordid little adventure in Fact, Truth, and Lies at DU, here's the profile of one sock puppet you created:

And here you are, caught in another attempted deceit while trying to sock 'splain it all away the above:

11. Yeah, at 3 in the morning

I somehow thought, it's okay because Skinner said you could use multiple accounts. After I communicated with him, I thought, what the fuck was I thinking? He rightly pointed out the use was not in good faith. It was an incredibly stupid thing to do. It wasn't the first time I've done something majorly stupid and it won't be the last, but it is the last time I'll use a sock. That is guaranteed. The thing had 19 posts and was active for one night. They'll talk about it for years, no doubt. So all the posts about a dogs life are about me. Hence my new sig line, which I have taken to appropriate and thereby remake the insult.

17. It was active from March 11 to April 4

That's more than "one night".
The thing had 19 posts and was active for one night.

It looks like you accidentally posted from that account on March 22nd.

It looks like the rest are between April 2 and April 4.

Here is what you just wrote today:

"But then again, you are the person who called the International Socialist Review "Ayn Rand" revisionist history."

That's blatantly disingenuous, and you know it.

*If you recall (I'm quite sure you do) you acknowledged making a punctuation error that completely changed the meaning of something you wrote in an OP. After I challenged you about the meaning of what you wrote, you launched a long and disingenuous vicious personal attack at me, which you self-deleted as soon as another poster pointed out your error, and didn't even have the courtesy or grace to apologize.*

Here is the thread (for context) that contains the exchange that you are referring to:

What you wrote in your unedited OP:

In a neoliberal era in which personal choice and triumphs of individual character are heralded above social justice and understandings of structural oppression, I think it useful to examine the historical construction of Helen Keller's life story to remove her Marxist activism on disability and instead supplant it with moral tales of overcoming personal obstacles."

My responses, response #1:

"Why do you think it is useful to examine the historical construction of Helen Keller's life story

to remove her Marxist activism on disability, and instead supplant it with moral tales of overcoming personal obstacles?

On the surface, this appears like a neoliberal attempt to deliberately rewrite history according to Ayn Rand. But I am open to the possibility that their are more reality based motivations for you posting this OP.

"I think it useful to examine the historical construction of Helen Keller's life story to remove her Marxist activism on disability and instead supplant it with moral tales of overcoming personal obstacles."

Maybe I misunderstood your intent in writing this post.

Could you please explain, clearly and simply, why you feel so deeply compelled to create an OP that is designed to "remove her Marxist activism on disability, and instead supplant it with moral tales of overcoming personal obstacles?"

Thanks.
--------------------------------------------

My response #2:

"Your introductory paragraph makes it appear that you are misrepresenting the

content of the article.

In a neoliberal era in which personal choice and triumphs of individual character are heralded above social justice and understandings of structural oppression, I think it useful to examine the historical construction of Helen Keller's life story to remove her Marxist activism on disability and instead supplant it with moral tales of overcoming personal obstacles.

I read the entire article, looking for a correlation between you introductory paragraph and the meaning of the content of the article, and did not see one. From reading your posts over a period of several years, I never got any clue that you were in any way supportive of Socialism or Marxism. Somewhat the opposite, in fact.

Are you a socialist, or Marxist/socialist?

The article is excellent, and I never indicated in any way that it wasn't.

Thank you for clarifying that you recognize and respect Helen Keller's radical socialist activism.

By the way, I have a History Degree, with a minor in Psychology, from a highly esteemed private university on the East Coast, and several years of post graduate study as a migrant worker "road scholar", which was probably the most important part of my education, in the respect that it helped me gain a better understand of what I had been taught in school.

You should be aware that, in reality, you are not wiser, smarter, more literate, or superior to everyone else in the world simply because you (purportedly) have a reasonably decent education.

And by the way, you never gave any indication at all that you "thought the article was good".

Introductory paragraphs generally clearly state the main idea, the intent, of an essay, and do not leave a reader with conflicting interpretations of the message of the body. Even now, after reading all of this, I see little or no reason value in, or reason to, "examinine the historical construction of Helen Keller's life story to remove her Marxist activism on disability and instead supplant it with moral tales of overcoming personal obstacles".

Given that you have so condescendingly explained to me that the popular conception of Helen Keller in the hero role that Americans are generally famliar with, that of some type of benign, bucolic. struggling but noble hero figure, why did you write that you feel it was important to continue to foster this image, by removing her Marxist activism on disability, and instead supplant it with moral tales of overcoming personal obstacles?

Is it so we can better understand the neoliberal mind? I'm just not seeing any value in removing the actual facts of her Marxist activism from her history. It just seems so Orwellian. And the author of the article is definitely pushing the fact of her Marxist activism.

Neoliberals need to have the fact that this most excellent woman was a red pinko commie shoved up in their faces. The author of the article seems to believe so as well.

"In a neoliberal era in which personal choice and triumphs of individual character are heralded above social justice and understandings of structural oppression, I think it useful to examine the historical construction of Helen Keller's life story to remove her Marxist activism on disability and instead supplant it with moral tales of overcoming personal obstacles."

Honestly, ^^that^^ just sounds so like Ayn Rand newspeak circa 1984.

Please don't bother self deleting anything else at this point, adding to the attempted deception will just make things worse:

12. Wait, hold on...

A coma before the word 'to' would entirely change what you were trying to say. Otherwise its sounds as if you are advocating for removing her Marxist accomplishments.

Now I have to delete my smackdown of the other poster, which I was quite pleased with. Oh well.

Now go on, launch another of those patented hallmark vicious personal attacks as a strawman attempt to 'splain all this away. If you can't baffle 'em with brilliance, bully 'em with bullshit.


Helpful Hint: Folks wouldn't be talking about your sockpuppet adogslife if you didn't resurrect through chronic "mischaracterization" of other people, or what other people say.
