Ron Paul gets slapped down over RonPaul.com attempted hijacking

[Phokus]

Conservatives and libertarians are making asses of themselves again, hilarious. They will back up Ron Paul over ANYTHING it seems. Added bonus for me pointing it out, it must really get under their skin

 

[Phokus]

Hey there we go! I was waiting for it. Thanks guy!

Is there really any controversy over this still? Because it's pretty obvious Ron Paul, even if he didn't write the stuff, fully endorsed it and knew about it:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ron_Paul_newsletters

In January 2012, the The Washington Post reported that several of Paul's former associates said that there was no indication that he had written the controversial passages himself, but three people claimed that Paul had been very involved in the production of the newsletters and had allowed the controversial material to be included as part of a deliberate strategy to boost profits.[35] According to one of the associates, Paul's former secretary (and a self-described supporter of his 2012 Presidential campaign) Renae Hathway, Paul was a "hands-on boss" who would come into the Houston office, about 50 miles from home, about once a week. She said, "It was his newsletter, and it was under his name, so he always got to see the final product... He would proof it." She also said, "We had tons of subscribers, from all over the world... I never had one complaint about the content."[35]

Yet that has very little to do with this issue as most libertarians are also against others being able to own other people's likeness or name without their consent. Furthermore the United nation is the arbiter because it was given that right by over reaching governments who allowed it that power to be able to act in that manner.

I would love to see whether this is actually a tenant of libertopianism. He is suing under copyright/trademark for his own name, which is nothing more than big government's way of locking out the free market, at least according to libertopians. Why hasn't he sued other people who use his name?

Why cannot Priscilla Presley sue anybody using Elvis' name and likeness? She's make a crapload of money from all of the Elvis impersonators.

It is simple.

Not quite, but I do find the white hooded klans man Paul posts entertaining.

Yea racists tend to not like them there black people, at least not so much to give them free medical care and fight their moral battles but to each his own. If you need me I'll be at my KKK Ron Paul Grand Wizard meet up. We got a cross burning tonight and I don't really want to miss it!

 

[Anarchist420]

@OP: I don't give a shit.

Dr. Paul hasn't always been 100% against IP anyway... it's not something he sees as unlibertarian so he's not being a hypocrite for this or for anything else.

Dumbass? Oh my god, there's a free download link you stupid fuck. No wonder you get fooled by Onion style articles thinking they're real.

And LMAO @ you thinking i, in any way, was losing. It was so bad for you idiots, Genx was making fun of me for KNOWING MORE SHIT THAN HE DOES.

And you still got your ass handed to you by my NYT article, and it got so bad you live in an alternate reality. Get real.

It was pretty simple. You couldn’t answer one simple question. Enjoy your victory.

It's very simple, you made a statement not backed up by reality and i destroyed you with actual evidence, not mickey mouse 'onion style' bullshit that you think is 'real'. I mean, you can't even figure out how to click a download button, how far does the depth of your stupidity go anyway?

This whole idea of rejecting critical thinking skills by conservatives is turning out to not be a very new idea for you idiots, huh?

I think you're overreacting a little there.

Phokus: Wikipedia, CBO and Google are shit. A NY Times journalist is reality.

Still can't answer one question about that "reality" of yours huh? Just keep dodging and insulting, it's all you have.

And you are the one who linked to a site that you have to pay for to have fast downloads.

 

[hans030390]

It's not Ron Paul's website, but I suspect many think it is.

I doubt many think it's an official site. It has "fan site" on the top logo and a disclaimer explaining what the site is and who runs it on the right side of the page. I think that's enough to make it clear to nearly everyone that it's not official.

 

[Genx87]

The only disaster was you, genx, and the rest of the retarded right sticking your collective dicks in the hornet's nest yet again when a person of even slightly below average intelligence would be smart enough not to do so. I added something to my sig btw. See the last line of it. It really explains you, genx, spidey et Al.

Did you take a class on IP law and stay at a holiday inn again?

This. Another thread backfire by the op

You never provided 'wikipedia' (LOL), or the CBO in your assertion that the GOP promised to accept tax increases as part of a deal w/ the democrats, while the NYT DIRECTLY contradicted you in that regards, you idiot manchild, . Holy shit you are stupid.

I can smell your insecurity from here, it must really eat at you that i'm FAR smarter than you are :awe:

 

[Phokus]

Matt, Genx, and Incorruptible are here like the good little Pavlovian lapdogs that they are. Just need Bobberfett to complete the idiot set.

The only lapdog is you. Do you not remember your last thread and your meltdown?

The only meltdown really was matt and genx (who really wants to stick his dick in the hornet's nest again, considering he's carrying it over here).

Your whole EXISTENCE is a meltdown, btw. I see you're posting more retarded 'war on christmas' threads. LMAO, conservatives are a joke.

 

[xBiffx]

Posting in a troll thread. Fauxkus rage at it again. OP claiming libertarians making asses of themselves again. Damn the irony is funny in here, as always.

Given that he raised a valid issue and all you did was flame him, your post looks a lot more like trolling than his.

Are you going to deny that Paul's behavior here looks contradictory to his stated views?

The first post raised the only valid issue. Since then we have had the typical Phokus flame war and subsequent meltdown as with any Phokus thread.

And no, its not contradictory. Ron Paul was never anti IP. Nor is Paul the chosen one of the libertarian community as many seem to think.

I am not the one who hates half the country. You're ignoring your last thread where you had your meltdown and got owned hard.

Most libertarians are against IP as it's a govenment granted monopoly on an idea:

https://mises.org/daily/3863

And most libertarians certainly wouldn't go to the ***UN*** to steal someone else's domain name that they've acquired and used legitimately.

Also, you are a tremendous fucking moron as usual. Go to my 2nd post in the thread and figure out who started the 'flame' war you imbecile.

You're describing yourself again.

If he doesn't ignore it, his self-righteous horse may become unstable.
