“I’ll let you know when I think it’s enough.”

He didn’t mention his feelings, he mentioned his thoughts. It’s his thoughts you hate so much. He didn’t say he wasn’t in control of his own thoughts.

LOL, yes, I hate his controlled thoughts. You're absolutely right. When someone expresses controlled thoughts about continuing punishment infinitely based solely on the possibility that someday their rage might be slaked, I do indeed hate that. Because to me, that's an expression of a particular type of insanity that has left millions of people dead across human history, and so the sane response to it is to hate it.

And while it might be a mystery to you, I also think he did indeed mention his feelings. In fact, I think he stated that his feelings are superior to his thoughts, to the the point of setting aside his thoughts and indulging his feelings until they're exhausted.

I think most people would agree with that interpretation of what he said. Indulging in punishment until feelings are satisfied is, generally, expressing feelings, even if communicated through very clear thoughts. In fact, the more clear the communication about such a thing, the more deliberately feelings are being indulged, IMO.

A tyrant called me a moron. I guess that is a compliment coming from a tyrant, that I am not “smart” enough to be a tyrant too!
