In which Texas Arcana proves he is a moron
And a useless braggart and fantasist
A lot of people assume that from time to time I critique some random relatively popular guy on the internet for reasons that are absurdly far from the truth. In no particular order:
I am jealous of their suck-cess
I’m just a hater
I’m a total zealot Catholic and hate everyone that is not
I’m just a mean bastard
Now… I’ll be the first to admit I can absolutely PRESENT as the last two, and to the really unintelligent as a possible hater too. What is absolutely NOT the case however, to any degree is that I am jealous of anyone.
I honestly don’t think I have that wiring in my brain, heart or soul. For the most part, anyone really better than me at whatever or better off, or happier I am genuinely happy for them. In some instances it might inspire me to do more or better in that area. But for the life of me, be it my Aspie brain or high IQ or the combo, I cannot even fathom how people are jealous of other people. I mean I see it. I recognise it. I have learnt to tell that twinge from other men when they look at my wife or the number of children we have, or in the past what girlfriends I had or what places I lived and so on. But I can’t actually put myself in a mental space where I look at someone else and think: oh I wish I was him, or had what he has etc.
It’s not that my life is perfect, far from it, but the point, to my mind (perhaps unidirectionally logical as Aspies are) is that it is MY life. Mine. And it can’t be anyone else’s nor can I be anyone else other than what I choose and act as being.
So I don’t get that one at all.
As far as the other things go, let me disambiguate:
Yes I DO hate: liars, bullshitters, intentional deceivers, evil people and so on. I also have a strong dislike for fantasists (bullshitters) even if they are essentially harmless, and despise (different from hate) cowards. They disgust me. I am not fond of stupid and/or arrogant people and despise —with a passion that rises to hate in certain aspects— hypocrites. This is why I live in a secluded valley and try to stay away from people in general and crowds in particular. The vast majority of humanity sucks. But removed from them by distance and their ugly and stupid faces, I don’t actively hate strangers on the internet. What I may take strong exception to is their lies or nonsense that other, less discerning people, might be fooled by. And as a form of entertainment mostly, I from time to time give them a Kurganing. Expose them to sunlight. I could say I do it as a public service, and it would not be wrong, but much closer to the truth is that I simply like the truth. A lot. And people who peddle in lies would do well to give me a wide berth. Some… however… foolishly wander into my path. Or, occasionally, cause enough of a ripple in my bullshit-o-meter that they get the attention of my baleful eye. Scott Adams being a prime example recently, with a few thousand readers (probably from his YT, site/blog, whatever telling each other about it). So okay. You might call me a hater… but it’s sort of generic and not personal. The focus of my distaste at the vices of humanity just happens to be the lightning rod. And yes they would normally be famous or glorified by the (idiot) masses, of course. But my aim, after entertaining myself (because if you can’t relate to the chimps, you may as well entertain yourself with them) is to perhaps show a far away mind that works, that he is not alone. Or perhaps that he has believed lies and awake. I know, it’s utopic, to imagine any decent number of humans might just become objective enough, honest enough, not scared enough, to simply see things as they are and act accordingly for the good of themselves and their loved ones and the other ten honest people left. So you see… you may THINK I’m a hater. It’s easy to assume I am from many of my posts and actions, but really, I am trying to either be a solace to the few with a working brain, or an instigator of developing one.
Yes it is true I am a zealous Catholic (if not a particularly good one) but no, I am not brainwashed. I only got baptised at age 43 after some 4 years or more of obsessive study after a road to Damascus Moment. It is not that I am brainwashed. It is that I tested Catholicism (the real one not the Novus Ordo fakery) and it models reality better than anything else I ever came across. Arrogant as it sounds to those who have NOT looked into it (and you have not), Catholicism (1958 sedevacantist version aka actual Catholicism) is simply true. And yes, everyone else is wrong, as was I for 43 years. Deal with it. But I don’t attack your fake religion out of hate. Well, ok, maybe a little hate for how dumb you are at never having questioned your false beliefs. I at least did that constantly. I had never even bothered to look at Catholicism because what I thought I knew of it was so utterly retarded and clearly false it didn’t merit investigating as far as I was concerned. But it did. See Believe! Or Reclaiming the Catholic Church here. So it’s again, more of an attack on deceivers (some knowingly, others not, but people who cause harm with falsity anyway).
I’m just a mean bastard. Eh. Sometimes.
Aaaaaanyway…. All that to simply say that today I had a little tete-a-tete with Texas Arcane. And it was enough to prove beyond any shadow of a doubt that he is:
Historically illiterate
Numerically illiterate
Either knowingly or not a fear porn producer (and probably consumer)
Has a completely retarded belief in “American Exceptionalism”
Is overweight
Has no real clue about anything relating to actual combat, violent encounters of any kind or actual hand to hand fighting. I knew this already when I read his totally fantasist story of how he went hiking through the badlands of the LA riots or something on his old blog. It was just bullshit that read like bad copy for a B-class “action film” A-team or Rambo IV style nonsense. Just as I spotted bullshit artists like the SAS Andy McNabb and the other guy who wrote books about his solo escape from Iraq or Afghanistan etc etc. Later proved beyond any doubt by a guy who retraced their steps after the war and proved a squad of SAS men was basically destroyed by being discovered by a shepard boy, his lame father and blind grandfather. If you actually HAVE worked with a gun, arrested people, stopped violent criminals and so on, you recognise the guys who make it up after having watched a bit too much Hollywood. But in this case it becomes quickly obvious.
But judge for yourself, here is the thread start:
And in the latest bitch move he has blocked me from commenting on the thread. Surely the action of a man that has won the argument on the facts and has nothing further to prove. Yeah… not so much. And anyway I was just going to respond to a comment from KD, discourse with Texas Arcana guy was already at an end as it’s pointless to discuss anything with fantasists.
Kurgan, I agree that your average American right-winger is brain washed and ignorant, but I think that's true of the general population. People would rather look to over complicated political solutions than do the harder work of honest self examination, correction , and a deeper understanding of God's Truth, because facing your inadequacies and faults is scary and has real consequences. Anyway as St. Francis of Assisi said "if you want to reform society, reform yourself". Most people (American or otherwise), would rather have power lazily given to them, than submit to God's true magisterium.
