911 Pravda

But I would say that Albanese is most guilty, with his "Disinformation in the Information Age" BS. So he will point out how the no-planers like Nico Haupt are out to sink the movement, he no doubt will include the childish attacks of theirs on Jon Gold, and the desired effect of course is that people say wow, I'm glad that Albanese and Gold are looking out for the good of the movement! Gosh are they stand-up guys! Anyone they don't like must be disinfo, and no one they like could possibly be. Then Arabesque will come in all hoity toity with his pseudo cerebral take (where he mostly seems to quote Fetzer to discredit Fetzer)about limited hangout (defined by him) straw man arguments (again as he sees them) and appeals to authority (except when they are valid like when the authorities on disinfo are him and Albanese...)

In most cases these guys are their own worst enemies, because they are a) not as smart as they like to pretend and b) not very likeable because of their self-glorification (the effect on people which they seem oblivious to!) This is why they had to chase out the independent thinkers who would not show proper deference--we were giving away the game!

Now they are the Union of Soviet Socialist Bloggers--all hail Chairman Reprehensor! Long live Comrade Goldoff! Just the Pravda, Ma'am!
