it's a tool that will rip rational arguments to shreds.
Can we all get on the "same page" with this issue, please
Someone needs to write the bullet points first.
You have to play their game and drum the same message over and over and over again.(ad nauseum)
Play on emotion is essential:
People are irrational beings, with no time to think deeply about a subject or to research facts.
If you garner peoples emotion, they will believe lies and ignore facts. (false narratives are lies) eg...FoxNews (there are more but, FoxNews is a pretty fucking good, all inclusive example of the point)
So if you want to succeed, don't expect rational to beat emotional.
We need to use rational to achieve emotional. That way you can justify with rational arguments while playing the emotional. Something FoxNews can't do, and why they are ridiculed by many.
Phrases to repeat ad nauseum: ( make more of them, and better of course )
Legal content is not the same as illegal content.
(needs no work, I have cut that down over years of using it in the filesharing debate , usually I add a ridiculous example of legal content becoming illegal like, "or is the new Justin Beiber album illegal content ?" )
You WANT to HIDE, censor and HARBOR a paedo ? sickFuck, get the police to catch him and rescue the victim.
TL;DR
They are people with resources who are not beyond using highly emotional phrases to control the narrative.
If we all coordinate, we can put out a clear message, that not only is rational, it's emotional too. A well formed, clear and concise message being repeated ad nauseum by lot's of people, is good way to go.
We may even help in getting sickFucks arrested in the process.
"esteemed Judge Richard Posner" --- a formidable opponent
I hope he doesn't hear of my patent for cotton feet coverings.
Berenerd, that is a irritating and depressing story.
I hope you succeed in your educational, financial and career aims. Failing that, which may be a blessing in disguise, i hope you have a happier life than 0.2GPA genius girl !
You should look at what "0.2GPA genius girl" is doing now, it may make you lulz, for a start you know she aint got a Nobel Peace Prize for a spectacular physics discovery.
I bet ...a "beauty technician" or a willfully subordinate, dipsy housewife.
Corruption
A school care more about money than education of people ?
This world is completely corrupted.
Marcel Pohl deserves scholar of the year. What he done is called "making do with what you got".
The code words have been spoken....noooooooooo (game over)
Rule 34 has just been invoked.

Appreciated appreciation.... is ....appreciation appreciated !
People ALWAYS take a side and stick to it dominantly... that is the key, also a reason WHY facts that contradict the perceived narrative are somewhat unsettling.
No need to twist, imply, use fallacies etc.. aka(a gift from Internet creator, Al Gore)
I award you this LINK: How to troll a dating website (read the first image)
True.. He is digging his way to eternal hates-ville.
I don't think he cares much about how people see him, tho.
The going after charities was a tell tale sign of how much he cares about negative PR. All he cares about is the Law and currently, how to use it to destroy Inman.
But really, we have seen this from lawyers before and we will see it again.
100% Legal injustice happens all the time.
People are acting like it's the first time ever it has been attempted or seen, they also think that public opinion will change case law.
As if lawyers ever only work for ethical and moral causes... ( are people that delusional )
I do question the injustice part of this case, a defamation case is just that, and I don't see the injustice if Inman has to pay funnyjunk $20,000, for calling them "theives". But then again, I never bought into the whole "good defenseless cartoonist" narrative to begin with.
Now that is a jump to a conclusion...
Speculation as to why... while ignoring the the real benefiter.
The Internet, being played by viral marketers and SEO's since 2000.
People will never get this.
At last...it made it to Wikipedia.

How does a web comic earn $1,000 a day in revenue?
http://mixergy.com/matthew-inman-oatmeal-interview/
Last week The Economist magazine profiled Matthew Inman about the creation and revenue of his comic, ?The Oatmeal.? They said that he did $1,000 a day in sales on a typical day and that he earned $70,000 in sales on a single day last year on Black Friday.
QUICK AN OPINION YOU DISAGREE WITH.....
YOU MUST STOP THIS....
SAY "HE IS WASTING TIME BEING AN IDIOT".....
That will change the world to fit your views.
Yeah... my tinfoil hat protects me from people taking my money and giving it to charity.
Other benefits of tinfoil hats...
They reflect arguments from people who willfully ignore facts.
They are quite fashionable(Lie).
They can be converted into many things, like a ball (I am creative)
Not to be confused with Aluminum Foil hats, crazy people who jump to conclusions wear those.
Misdirected comment...
You should have posted that on Inmans blog.
Carreon quote:
"generate a Charitable Fund that has been used to bribe two major charities into tacitly endorsing a campaign that is utterly devoid of charitable purpose, and is a mere cover for a hate campaign"
Carreon sure puts up a ferocious fight.
The guy is a savage !
Remind me never to cross him, I like my bum-hole the way it is.
I hope it was for my work at exposing the hypocrite antipirate, getting him to willfully fund piracy, then making him delete the evidence of his criminality and hypocrisy.
If it is, I accept the nomination.
I really should make that into an article.
