It is mostly dead now, killed off by trolls and other assorted idiots. Do not be so hard on yourself, Mr. Ed Dolan. Mr. Tom Sherman was a former mainstay of quite a few of these cycling groups on Usenet. He was perhaps its greatest advocate of “post free or die”. However, human nature being what it is, such free forums were impossible as we all eventually discovered. What destroys unmonitored newsgroups are all the “trolls and other assorted idiots” who know no bounds on their free speech. The one thing Ed Dolan did that Tom Sherman never did was to take on all these idiots and give them a taste of their own medicine. Many a battle was fought and won by yours truly, but the end result was that the newsgroups were destroyed. The silences of the Tom Sherman’s of this world means that the lowest common denominator will always win out as every person with half a brain falls silent. I felt it was far better that a newsgroup cease to exist than that it be dominated by morons and idiots. Tom Sherman was neither a moron nor an idiot, but his silences were always deafening when things got hot. I attributed it to moral cowardice, but it may be that he had a stake in the world and needed to guard his privacy. It is good riddance to Usenet newsgroups, with or without monitors. They may have served a function when the Internet was new, but have now become nothing but a remembrance of a past festival in which certain individuals gloried in their knowledge of one trivial thing or another. Only the Great Ed Dolan, who is also a Great Saint, remains to kick its dead ass. Ed Dolan the Great aka Saint Edward the Great Gnaw [1], just that the people on the bicycle newsgroups are generally civil enough that they do not need telling off. I will and have told people off when they were being treasonous while hiding behind the pretense of being politically correct; I have no problems with telling someone that they are filth who deserves to die if that is really the case. Or just to go **** themselves, if they are of limited comprehension. [1] A datakollism. Yes, but only when your ox was being gored. I took on any and all who presented an affront to civility and common sense. I did not limit myself to any parochial interests. I had the interests of the newsgroup as a whole at heart whereas you were notorious for absenting yourself when things got hot. You did nothing to save the group when it was terminal. Further, the bicycle newsgroups were notorious for being left of center politically and in every other way. You were about as politically correct as they come. It was only your tirade against Israel and the Jews that got you into a bit of trouble. Conservatives on these newsgroups were as rare as diamonds in the rough ... of which I was the exemplar of the type. But of course everyone knows that 1 conservative is the equivalent of 10,000 liberals. Ed Dolan the Great aka Saint Edward the Great Ed, if you were better informed, you would know that Political Correctness™ is a Zionist attack on Europeans and European culture, just as the Zionists/Israel hate the US and Europe and want to see them destroyed (i.e. Zionism and Bolshevism are different sides of the same coin, 9/11/2001 was a Mossad run operation, etc). The sad part is you are unwittingly supporting your enemies (Zionists), while making enemies of those (e.g. Iran) who would be your friends. P.S. Anyone who equates Zionism with Jewishness is either ignorant or a traitor to humanity of the worst sort. -- T0m $herm@n |
