Whoa, scarily accurate!
" "Sexual identity is elitist," says Sartre. Lyotard promotes the use of neostructural objectivism to deconstruct hierarchy. But the premise of realism holds that truth, paradoxically, has intrinsic meaning, but only if narrativity is interchangeable with truth. "
A number of discourses concerning dialectic nationalism exist. It could be said that if neocultural desituationism holds, we have to choose between dialectic nationalism and neocultural construction.
Well, I should certainly think so!
I am writing this letter rather reluctantly. I do not wish to begin an incendiary debate about Billthedrill's sermons. However, Billthedrill has recently made a few statements that I find disturbing to such a degree that I cannot remain silent. It is worth noting at the outset that I want to follow knowledge like a sinking star beyond the utmost bound of human thought. That may seem simple enough, but Billthedrill shouldn't slander those who are most systematically undervalued, underpaid, underemployed, underfinanced, underinsured, underrated, and otherwise underserved and undermined as undeserving and underclass. That would be like asking a question at a news conference and, too angry and passionate to wait for the answer, exiting the auditorium before the response. Both of those actions ascribe opinions to me that I don't even hold. He claims that censorship could benefit us. That claim illustrates a serious reasoning fallacy, one that is pandemic in his equivocations. Then again, people tell me that all of the anxious sighing, longing, and hoping of Billthedrill's heart is directed to a time when worthless yobbos can leave helpless citizens afraid in the streets, in their jobs, and even in their homes. And the people who tell me this are correct, of course. My opinions are the obverse of Billthedrill's, at least insofar as this essay is concerned.
Although Billthedrill won't admit it, I want to give people more information about Billthedrill, help them digest and assimilate and understand that information, and help them draw responsible conclusions from it. Here's one conclusion I undoubtedly hope people draw: Billthedrill will court an egocentric minority of nasty scofflaws because he possesses a hatred that defies all logic and understanding, that cannot be quantified or reasoned away, and that savagely possesses credentialism-prone scatterbrains with contemptuous and uncontrollable rage. Although the proper definition of "teleoroentgenography" is hotly disputed, there are few certainties in life. I have counted only three: death, taxes, and Billthedrill doing some craven thing every few weeks. There is good reason to believe that the racialism "debate" is not a debate. It is a harangue, a politically motivated, brilliantly publicized, repressive attack on progressive ideas.
My point may be made clearer by use of an allegorical tale. Suppose a hypothetical group of three people is standing in a room. One of those people realizes that nothing would make Billthedrill happier than to see me become clinically depressed. Another goes on and on about his irritable crusades. But the third can't understand why one loses count of the number of times he has tried to threaten, degrade, poison, bulldoze, and kill this world of ours. In this hypothetical situation, it should be obvious that if you intend to challenge someone's assertions, you need to present a counterargument. He provides none.
Who is behind the decline of our civilization? The culprit responsible is not the Illuminati, not the Insiders, not the Humanists, not even the Communists. No, the decline of our civilization is attributable primarily to Billthedrill. Do you understand the implications of what I have been telling you? Are you awake? Then you probably realize that I am getting tired of sweeping up after repeated Billthedrill fiascoes. Am I aware of how Billthedrill will react when he reads that last sentence? Yes. Do I care? No, because he has, on a number of occasions, expressed a desire to push all of us to the brink of insanity. On all of these occasions, I submitted to the advice of my friends, who assured me that his maneuvers are not an abstract problem. They have very concrete, immediate, and unpleasant consequences. For instance, we can never return to the past. And if we are ever to move forward to the future, we have to upbraid him for being so unforgiving.
I'm not the first to mention that Billthedrill is unable to separate fact from fiction. I've said that before and I've said it often, but perhaps I haven't been concrete enough or specific enough, so now I'll try to remedy those shortcomings. I'll try to be a lot more specific and concrete when I explain that everybody is probably familiar with the cliche that Billthedrill should do some research next time before printing half-truths and misinformation. Well, there's a lot of truth in that cliche. If one accepts the framework I've laid out here, it follows that whenever there's an argument about his devotion to principles and to freedom, all one has to do is point out that sometimes the best course of action will be obvious, sometimes not. That should settle the argument pretty quickly. If one believes statements like, "Billthedrill can achieve his goals by friendly and moral conduct," one is, in effect, supporting randy, pathetic election-year also-rans.
While I claim that he has every right to his feeble-minded opinions, in these days of political correctness and the changing of how history is taught in schools to fulfill a particular agenda, his allies are too lazy to renew those institutions of civil society -- like families, schools, churches, and civic groups -- that get the facts out in the hope that somebody will do something to solve the problem. They just want to sit back, fasten their mouths on the public teats, and casually forget that Billthedrill's belief systems are a spiritually destructive propaganda instrument aimed at our children. Sadly, lack of space prevents me from elaborating further. Those of us who are still sane, those of us who still have a firm grip on reality, those of us who still insist that Billthedrill's inclinations are so exact in their scheme, so comprehensive in their scope, that pigheaded knuckle-draggers have adopted and embraced them verbatim ac litteratim, have an obligation to do more than just observe what Billthedrill is doing from a safe distance. We have an obligation to issue a call to conscience and reason. We have an obligation to oppose evil wherever it rears its smarmy head. And we have an obligation to criticize the obvious incongruities presented by him and his minions.
My love for people necessitates that I place a high value on honor and self-respect. Yes, I face opposition from Billthedrill. However, this is not a reason to quit but to strive harder. When he first announced that he wanted to open the gates of hell, I nearly choked on my own stomach bile. I feel no more personal hatred for him than I might feel for a herd of wild animals or a cluster of poisonous reptiles. One does not hate those whose souls can exude no spiritual warmth; one pities them.
We could opt to sit back and let Billthedrill pit the haves against the have-nots. Most people, however, would argue that the cost in people's lives and self-esteem is an extremely high price to pay for such inaction on our part. He has stated that the Queen of England heads up the international drug cartel. That's just pure voyeurism. Well, in Billthedrill's case, it might be pure ignorance, seeing that I try never to argue with Billthedrill, because it's clear he's not susceptible to reason. Ask yourself: Why is he so compelled to complain about situations over which he has no control? I bet you'll answer the same way that I did, because we both know that I shall not argue that Billthedrill's newsgroup postings are an authentic map of his plan to take rights away from individuals whom only Billthedrill perceives as vulgar. Read them and see for yourself.
You're probably thinking, "Billthedrill's grandiose promises of plenty for each have yielded grinding poverty for all." Well, you're right. But something else you should know is that there doesn't seem to be much we can do about this. And I can say that with a clear conscience, because last summer, I attempted what I knew would be a hopeless task. I tried to convince Billthedrill that most pundits are uncertain about the magnitude of the threat posed by his fairy tales. As I expected, Billthedrill was unconvinced. In light of my stance on this issue, his utterances are based on hate. Hate, frotteurism, and an intolerance of another viewpoint, another way of life.
When Billthedrill hears anyone say that even Billthedrill must concede that sometimes, besotted jokers are so rotten, they merit special attention, his answer is to propound ideas that are widely perceived as representing outright hedonism. That's similar to taking a few drunken swings at a beehive: it just makes me want even more to point out that the emperor has no clothes on. I do not find bromides that are piteous, vicious, and depraved to be "funny". Maybe I lack a sense of humor, but maybe he has -- not once, but several times -- been able to demonstrate an outright hostility to law enforcement without anyone stopping him. How long can that go on? As long as his blockish smears are kept on life support. That's why we have to pull the plug on them and make this world a better place in which to live. Billthedrill ignores the most basic ground rule of debate. In case you're not familiar with it, that rule is: attack the idea, not the person. A final note: I refuse to dance to Billthedrill's postmodernist tune.

As I'm sure you'll recall from our canoetrip to the lagoon, the premise of cultural neotextual theory states that expression comes from the masses, given that sexuality is interchangeable with art. Big sigh. What more can I say?
I've written before that there is academic writing that is too booring to read, or too boring to write. But there is no such thing as too boring to be published.
Cheers,
