Well, that should be obvious by now....
Why do you say that?

Alchemize, you seem more interested in talking ABOUT posters than about actual topics I've noticed. Have you ever thought about OT?

(Yes I'm going off-topic here but only to help direct alchemize to a more appropriate forum for most of his posts).
Really? You seem to be more interested in if someone is trolling or not rather than the topic. Yet, you call pliablemoose a "she". So I'm really trying to determine who the troll here is?

talk about the pot calling the kettle black... :roll:

You wanna jump in too huh? My single post to this thread before the idiot troll jumped in was simply to point out that PM posted the title of the article.

So yes, I guess I'm guilty as charged of not staying on topic. But it's obvious that Infohawk was up to his old tricks.

I think Red Dawn has him out done. Here's a sample "..Fund A Mental Cases, Evangelical Whacko and Right Wing Nutjobs.."

He was quoting the article title, it wasn't his words.

pliablemoose was going in for the troll as is indicated by the lack of any substance in the opinion and the wink at the end making it clear what her intentions were.

You have single handedly made the term "Troll" a title of honor! Thank you.

Actually that was the most prudent thing he said there. If I could vote in the US I'd vote against anything these twits endorse, just as a matter of course :)

I laughed when you called the article writer 'moderate'. He is pretty extreme by our standards.

Alberta (the province in which Calgary is located) is our equivalent of Texas. Its industries are cattle and oil, it is known for its rightist politics, and it is filthy rich.

Calgary's main attraction is the Calgary Stampede, which happens in early August every year.

Please do not think he represents Canada's elite.

Naw, those are in Quebec.

You're new here so I'll pardon the ignorance. Skoorb is a rescued Canadian. ;) I think he's fairly familiar with the country in which he was raised.

Here's a pact for them:

http://orthodox-heterodox.blogspot.com/2004/11/red-state-blue-state-me-state-you.html

Red state, blue state, me state, you state
Since there is obviously a great amount of pain and suffering over the whole redstate-bluestate thing (or, more exactly, redcounty-bluecounty), and since the Blues are grumbling about packing their bags and leaving, or staying where they are and seceding (with bright political lights like Geraldine Ferraro reminding them that they have all the talent and creativity in their blue boundaries), I think they really ought to consider making us sign a contract so there won't be any more misunderstanding about what's expected of everyone. Consider this modest example:

***
We, the bold, free-spirited peoples of the Diverse Lands of Blue America, hereby contract with you, the safe, ordinary drabs of the Nearly-contiguous Lands of Red America to exist peaceably and amicably in the manner to which we've become accustomed.

We will continue to exist in heavily-impacted urban centers in areas where our explosive growth and profligate lifestyle are completely unsustainable -- deserts, swamps, mountains, frozen wastelands, coasts and islands -- and so we will be needing to pull heavily from your water and other natural resources. We will need you to have power plants, waste recycling plants and refineries in your areas, since we can't stand to look at the ugly things.

We will need to convert some of the more inhabitable areas you have into parks and bedroom communities for us, since our cities are too disgusting for any of us to consider living in them. We will come out in droves, build densely and go elsewhere to work. We won't care about these communities or put any work into their governance. You are welcome to stay if you'd like -- and if you can afford the housing costs once we're there -- but please don't alter the opinion landscape that we'd like to exist in. In other words, please either be like us or aspire to be like us ... or shut up.

We need a tremendous amount of ever-changing, ever-improving goods and services. We will need you to provide manpower for industries and meet these needs. As such, we will need you to raise respectful, honest, hard-working children. We don't care how you do it, but please don't tell us how. If it has anything to do the preservation of the "traditional family unit" or instilling "moral values" we really, REALLY don't want to know.

We will raise our children to be untethered, free spirits with no boundaries like ourselves. In other words, spoiled, bored, self-centered, angry, dispirited, whiny and uncontrollable thugs, sociopaths and cowards. We will want to shape their beautiful little minds into carbon copies of our own, in order to ensure future creativity (and socio-political continuity), but you can help us raise them if you want, as long as you don't impose any limitations on them. Heck, you can even have them in daycare and private schools. Goodness knows we can't stand the little monsters. Ha ha. We're kidding. Okay, we're not.

We love our pets. We own our children (and invoke their name to our own political ends). Don't ask why.

Because of our precious children, and because it is unconscionable to us to ever frown upon any activity of our populace -- criminal or otherwise -- we will need you to have prisons and drug rehab centers to house our miscreants. Also, it pleases us to maintain a constant supply of non-incentivizing social programs, so remember to pay your taxes promptly and vote in every new bond.

Though we hold the brave and unique opinion that wars are a bad idea, we will occasionally sanction aggressive action. We will need you and your children to defend us, since we're not very good at the whole macho thing. Be assured that we support the troops, though we're not really sure what that means. We think that it means that we will denigrate their efforts constantly by putting on chic protest events with cutting jibes and clever costumery and a LOT of drugs and alcohol. If so, we support the troops. If it has anything to do with not encouraging the enemy with treasonous talk and the leaking of sensitive information, we don't support the troops. (Sorry. That would just be asking too much.)

We must be clear: you are racist, sexist, xenophobic and narrow-minded. We know there have been attempts on your side to dialogue about our stereotypes of you that haven't changed since the 50's, but remember -- we are the definers; you are the defined. We will let you know if things ever change, but there are some sizable voting blocs at risk here, so don't hold your breath.

On the subject of homosexuality, we must be very firm: you absolutely must not maintain the standards of behavior which your religion dictates and which have been the norm throughout human history. We believe that sexuality is a complex and complicated aspect to our humanity, and so we know that we're right and you're wrong. Anybody ought to be able to do anything to anybody else as much and as often as they please. (Also, there is the question of another voting bloc here, and so we will be referring to anything less than total approval as ignorant homophobia. Don't sweat it.)

Since we are too intelligent and enlightened to tolerate mere Christianity or any other traditional religion, we will offer instead our own religious beliefs, which are that good and evil are almost interchangeable, stuff is good and basically there isn't anything to believe in. And you can believe us on this. In fact, we insist that you do. Your religion leads to peace of mind, human dignity and theosis; ours promotes spiritual decay. You see the problem.

We are your story-tellers, and we will present constant meretricious offerings concerning nihilism, the insanity of living and the horror of dying. And just to let you know that we're in touch with your boring little lives, we will occasionally tell you your own story through movies about people that can't wait to leave their backwater towns and girls that have babies in Wal-Mart. Please attend these movies in herds so we can turn around and do ones about the salvific qualities of lawlessness, sexual promiscuity and abortion.

Speaking of Wal-mart -- STOP GOING THERE. We are really, really serious. We would never set foot there ourselves, but it bugs the crap out of us that they exist, seeing as how they run out of business your quaint little shops that we also were never going to.

And STOP driving SUV's. We hate those things too. Don't you realize that your conspicuous consumption will overshadow ours if you drive those boats? Plus, they're big, which just means we have to find something even bigger to drive.

We don't have to be the only ones with strong emotions. We encourage you to despise rich people, who are greedy and mean. But please target rich businesspeople only -- not celebrities or moguls or rock stars or sports figures or recording executives, or anyone who might vote Democrat. They're not despicable -- they're your paisanos, man.

Question authority, but not ours. Hate the man, but we're not him.

You won the last presidential election by a large margin. That means we're going to have to ask you to unconditionally surrender. Put down the mandate and back away slowly and no one will get hurt. You really blew it, but we've got more "education" for you on the way -- Michael Moore has kindly agreed to do another Fahrenheit movie. Viewing is NOT optional.

If you don't vote for a Democrat in 2008, we will break your stubby, coal-blackened little fingers. Ha ha. Kidding again. Well, sort of.

Sign here. Or, if you went to public school, make an 'X'.

*****

That's the basic idea. The language probably needs some cleaning up, but I'm thinking they won't have too much difficulty finding a lawyer.[q/]

I only agree with Canadians (and other non-Americans) who support my political view.

The other ones (who share views with Republicans) are foreigners who don't have a right to comment on how we run our country.

Yeah he moved from the frozen tundra of Canuckistan to the Rube state of Alabami. From one extreme to another!

Thank you, resident troll expert witness. Is pliablemoose a female?
Nobody ever explains why Infohawk is a troll or backs it up. So I'm not suprised if you don't have any evidence either.

Infohawk is one of the most respected members of this forum.

Sorry, nice try. If you are going to publicly call him out as a troll and such you need to have something to back it up. Otherwise, your claims are simply bogus. If you don't have any solid reasons to disparage him I'd think you'd just refrain from doing so.

Its only trolling when those who aren't voracious liberal elitist obnoxious know-it-all snobs do it, so, by that definition, you're absolutely correct, he's not a Troll. And neither are you.

So what is it when a "voracious liberal elitist obnoxious know-it-all snob" does it?

I never claimed you were a female. I mistakenly assumed it. My apologies. Hopefully you will be able to move on from it.

Reading this thread, I can't help but think back to the accolades that the FvckTheSouth website received. The same people who found that site to be the absolute height of comedy and an eloquent essay all rolled into one then have the stones to come into this thread and call the original article a piece of trash.

Sad.

Some forum members only feel confortable laughing at those people whom they feel are beneath them, without regards to demonstrated abilities. People from Red States are perceived as ignorant, beer-drinking, imbred rednecks and are therefore fair targets for ridicule and jest. People that voted for Kerry or that repeatedly condemn Bush are strictly off-limits and should be revered and coddled, as they represent something too close to home for some here.

It obviously works both ways, but because of both the curent climate here and my personal leanings, it is much more one-sided from my perspective.



Edit: PS - Your sig rocks! MC Chris is the man! (second only to the Fett man!) ;)
