RE: xoxos vs. clay
i never said no one benefited from taking me on.....i said no one profited.
not as they'd intended at least.
a fine distinction...but yes....what i'm saying is that those who strived to "get me" gained some knowledge....but that wasn't what they were looking for. they wanted a piece of me. these pronouncements
were often made in the open and some were more covert. nevertheless.....the intent was clear and yet unachieved.
we need not get into specific scenarios as they have little bearing upon our immediate situation. i dare say, though...when i challenged you on matters before (copyrights etc) i was at least making an honest attempt to make disagreement nothing more than that.
i never mentioned one's manhood.....nor genetic
point of entry into the universe.
and yet you summoned me to reverse and exit.
you said you were done...totally done.
well....this is the basic scenario as i've seen it. me walking through a phalanx of goons saying here i am. and then nothing. and then for weeks or months a bunch of bristling mad little hyenas wanting to get at me. history having taken note of missed opportunities.
well....you're taking that path well.
in fact, you walk it like a master.
and if you say you wanted ME to benefit, then so i will.
i find it difficult to believe anyone can win such a charade of macho intellectual bravado....but you
my good sir do score big points for keeping the issues nebulous and perhaps even nonexistant except that you are obviously bristling....from not sticking/following through with our first row. why you shoooed me away is still unclear to me.
perhaps i was right?
but now we're just children. mere idiots flaying away and about....and you commanding people to pay attention.
you are funny for a guy who shouts death to controllers.
well...the fact of the matter is that a few are paying attention.
but no matter.
you've proven your might.
again....i bow to your ability to dream the good dream. perhaps one day you can quit dividing every camp into mere fragments....and tell us what THAT dream is.
i hope it's not just the one of loosening the yoke your family inheritance has burdened you with...spiritually.....emotionally....and at some point....physically.
it's an inexhaustible quest to rid one's self of the sins of one's father....i.e...slavery, war....murder...theft. but alas...we are all faced with our own individual challenges.
i wish you luck with yours.
and look forward to your next.....
victory speech.
