Shattuck: Sleazy internet bully finally gets its comeuppance
The Boston Herald ^ | June 11, 2016 | Tom Shattuck

Posted on 06/11/2016 9:07:41 AM PDT by calvincaspian

“Gawker Media has filed for bankruptcy.”

Those words were the most positive assembly of pixels to have ever appeared on the smear site and are reason for all of us to celebrate.

Gawker finally got theirs yesterday. After years of gossip-terrorism and vile internet bullying — all masquerading under the guise of journalism — someone finally put a knife in the wretched, pablum Orc once and for all.

The biggest challenge with crusaders of agnosticism like you is breaking your pop culture certitude to get you to examine your own prejudices rather than tilt at the windmills of mine.

You openly deny homosexuals their very humanity, refuse to acknowledge your own words, and then tell me to examine MY "prejudices"?!

Jesus hated hypocrisy, and so do I. Sell your soda pop somewhere else.

Spare me your contrived rectitude.

Precisely what aspect of "humanity" am I denying? What words of mine am I denying? And yes, I'm calling you on your prejudices as evinced by your rabid attack made even more vituperative by my failure to give you the cliched opening you've been trained to satisfy your pseudo-moral outrage with.

And while Jesus hated hypocrisy, he had even more disdain for those debasing what is holy, openly.

I write it out explicitly in my post #23.

You musta missed it by accident. Yeah, that's what it was.

Fascinating how you see the value of your words as holy, when all I'm seeing is hypocrisy.

Hey, You want to hate gays, I won't stop you. I just don't like you denying what you said. Stinks of moral cowardice.

Funny how you can be so "explicit" without answering the questions....

Post #23 is explicit. You just jumped the shark. I’m not wasting any more time on you - you’re so dishonest you deny your own words, loser.

Don't insult me. I've offed three today.

I'm not the loser when you won't explicitly answer the questions. You're trying to "save face," but you've already lost by dodging the questions.

So, do you like tying the gays to the chair before you toss them off a bridge, or are you more of a freestyle kind of guy.

Perhaps burning them in cages. That will give you that sense of a barbecue. We all know how you must like those church barbecues where you can talk about hating the fags, and Jews.

You're really not as smart as you think you are.

What institution did the “fag” attack? Gawker was an institution?

Don’t try to play stupid.

Being yourself is plenty enough.

Do you find anything morally wrong with the practice of homosexuality?

In your belief that your childish tactics can achieve something. You don't realize, you can't grasp, that you don't matter. That once you indulge in such lies, you erase yourself.

You simply don't see it, and worse, you believe your blindness is power. So there is no help for you - your arrogance is a blank wall.

And that's your error.

Oh, BTW, I'm done with you.

What? Again? Is it for real this time?

I hear lots of sanctimony, but little in the way of answering my questions other than with gratuitous assertions that can just as gratuitously be denied.

And if I didn't matter, your conscience wouldn't be so pricked to justify your moral failure.

You can do better than that.

C'mon, leave a parting shot that really gets nasty. You know I don't want to reply, so the game here is to try to get me to respond to pure filth. And this is the best you can do? See, I leave myself wide open, and you still can't do it right.

Okay, one more time. Something really nasty. Something I'll simple HAVE to respond to. Think of how much you hate those sick fags, the ones you don't believe deserve acknowledgement of their very humanity. Slam down a few beers. You know, work yourself up. Then take aim, and go ahead - vomit out your filthy mind.

I won't stop you, I promise. Go ahead - let's see what you've got.

Do it, punk. Lemme have it. I'm smiling at you.

No, I didn’t think your pride would let you be done with me, but I’m done with you.
