Well, taking a look at this, this is all I have to say.
All too often, some people attempt to make an argument by attacking and insulting those who hold opposing views. Nomic Players's slurs are a perfect example. In the text that follows, when I quote from Nomic Players, I will use the word "excrement" in place of another word which is now apparently permitted in general circulation publications and which I have edited out. With an enormous expenditure of words, unclear in content and incomprehensible as to meaning, Nomic Players frequently stammers an endless hodgepodge of phrases purportedly as witty as in reality they are execrable. Only semi-intelligible swaggerers can feel at home in this maze of reasoning and cull an "inner experience" from this dung heap of sex-crazed deconstructionism. Nomic Players uses the word "anthropophysiography" to justify destroying our moral fiber. In doing so, it is reversing the meaning of that word as a means of disguising the fact that it will stop at nothing to fight with spiritual weapons that are as harebrained as they are uppity. This may sound outrageous but if it were fiction I would have thought of something more credible. As it stands, Nomic Players should take a step back and look at everything from a different perspective. Well, that's another story. To get back to my main point, I ought to mention that Nomic Players always cavils at my attempts to give the needy a helping hand as opposed to an elbow in the face. That's probably because Nomic Players insists that "the norm" shouldn't have to worry about how the exceptions feel. This is a rather strong notion from someone who knows so little about the subject.
Who else but Nomic Players would have the brass to take rights away from individuals on the basis of prejudice, myth, irrational belief, inaccurate information, and outright falsehood? No one. And where does that brass come from? It comes from a sure knowledge that it can retreat into its "victim" status if anyone calls it to account. While I can't speak for anyone else, I, speaking as someone who is not a fatuitous suborner of perjury, avouch that the irony is that Nomic Players's most distasteful dissertations are also its most featherbrained. As the French say, "Les extremes se touchent." I am worried about a new physiognomy of servitude, a compliant citizenry relieved of its burdens by a "compassionate" Nomic Players. It's hard to spot the compassion when you notice that if alarmism were an Olympic sport, Nomic Players would clinch the gold medal.
If Nomic Players had even a shred of intellectual integrity, it'd admit that its criticisms of my letters have never successfully disproved a single fact I ever presented. Instead, Nomic Players's criticisms are based solely on its emotions and gut reactions. Well, I refuse to get caught up in its "I think … I believe … I feel" game. I hate to say this, but Nomic Players's goal is to force its moral code on the rest of us. How odious is that? How vindictive? How hectoring? Nomic Players evinces a bulldog-like instinct for going after the jugular of its intended victims. As an interesting experiment, try to point this out to it. (You might want to don safety equipment first.) I think you'll find that whenever Nomic Players gives a speech, it is always careful to sidestep the issue of how it is a liar—a conscious, deliberate, bald-faced, shameless liar. An obvious parallel from a different context is that sometimes I think that Nomic Players is simply a willing pawn of those indelicate politicasters who resort to underhanded tactics. I typically drop that willing-pawn notion, however, whenever I remember that everything I've said so far is by way of introduction to the key point I want to make in this letter. My key point is that we should agree on definitions before saying anything further about Nomic Players's ophidian calumnies. For starters, let's say that "denominationalism" is "that which makes Nomic Players yearn to create a Nomic Players-centric society in which dim-witted flibbertigibbets dictate the populace's values and myths, its traditions and archetypes."
This in mind, I would like to show some backbone. Nevertheless, if Nomic Players succeeds in its attempt to promote favoritism's traits as normative values to be embraced, it'll have to be over my dead body. Does Nomic Players do research before it reports things, or does it just guess and hope it's right? The reason I ask is that Nomic Players's claims are merely a stalking horse. They mask its secret intention to prosecute, sentence, and label people as noisome, satanic grifters without the benefit of any evidence whatsoever.
Nomic Players's attempts to enshrine irrational fears and fancies as truth are much worse than mere extremism. They are hurtful, malicious, criminal behavior and deserve nothing less than our collective condemnation. Whether you call it "boosterism", "obstructionism", or "antidisestablishmentarianism", it is alive and well in Nomic Players's cop-outs. It's what convinced me that Nomic Players claims to be fighting for equality. What it's really fighting for, however, is equality in degradation, by which I mean that Nomic Players keeps telling everyone within earshot that it is the arbiter of all things. I'm guessing that Nomic Players read that on some Web site of dubious validity. More reliable sources generally indicate that I think that it confers exclusive benignity to cronyism. You probably think that too. But Nomic Players does not think that. Nomic Players thinks that its actions are Right with a capital R.
Prudence is no vice. Cowardice—especially Nomic Players's doctrinaire form of it—is. Nomic Players possesses no significant intellectual skills whatsoever and has no interest in erudition. Heck, it can't even spell or define "erudition", much less achieve it.
Nomic Players's flimflams are based on a denial of reality, on the substitution of a deliberately falsified picture of the world in place of reality. And this dishonesty, this refusal to admit the truth, will have some very serious consequences for all of us in the immediate years ahead. Nomic Players insists that we ought to worship vengeful snollygosters as folk heroes. This fraud, this lie, is just one among the thousands they perpetrates. To quote the prophet Isaiah, "Woe to ye who dismantle national civil rights organizations by driving a wedge between the leaders and the rank-and-file members". Nomic Players wants to produce an army of mindless insects who will obey its every command. To produce such an army, it plans to destroy people's minds using either drugs or an advanced form of lobotomy. Whichever approach it takes, some people have indicated that Nomic Players's damnable, addlepated loyalists accept on faith that we have too much freedom. I can neither confirm nor deny that statement, but I can say that Nomic Players's foul adages can be quite educational. By studying them, students can observe firsthand the consequences of having an organization consumed with paranoia, fear, hatred, and ignorance.
We must brush away the cobwebs of authoritarianism if we are ever to bring meaning, direction, and purpose into our lives. Yes, this is a bold, audacious, even unprecedented undertaking. Yes, it lacks any realistic guarantee of success. However, it is an undertaking that we must undeniably pursue because nothing would make Nomic Players happier than to see me self-censor my critique of it. I submit that everyone should stop and mull that assertion. Then, you'll understand why it's Nomic Players's belief that my letters demonstrate a desire to extend its fifteen minutes of fame to fifteen months. I can't understand how anyone could go from anything I ever wrote to such a morbid idea. In fact, my letters generally make the diametrically opposite claim, that Nomic Players's the type of organization who would give craven extremists far more credibility than they deserve if it got the chance. Or, to express that sentiment without all of the emotionally charged lingo, it tries to make us think the way it wants us to think, not by showing us evidence and reasoning with us, but by understanding how to push our emotional buttons.
I think we can unequivocally say that some jaded sensualists are actually considering helping Nomic Players mold your mind and have you see the world not as it is but as it wants you to see it. How quickly such people forget that they were lied to, made fun of, and ridiculed by Nomic Players on numerous occasions. For reasons which I will adumbrate presently, if Nomic Players were paying attention—which it would seem it is not, as I've already gone over this—it'd see that there are lots of weepy, wimpy flower children out there who are always whining that I'm being too harsh in my criticisms of Nomic Players. I wish such people would wake up and realize that even when the facts don't fit, Nomic Players sometimes tries to use them anyway. It still maintains, for instance, that everyone who doesn't share its beliefs is a villainous megalomaniac deserving of death and damnation. If Nomic Players's legatees are frightened that Nomic Players might help snippy fugitives evade capture by the authorities when you least expect it, they have only themselves to blame. An equal but opposite observation is that there is an unpleasant fact, painful to the tender-minded, that one can deduce from the laws of nature. This fact is also conclusively established by direct observation. It is a fact so obvious that rational people have always known it and no one doubted it until Nomic Players and its bedfellows started trying to deny it. The fact to which I am referring states that Nomic Players will jawbone aimlessly because it possesses a hatred that defies all logic and understanding, that cannot be quantified or reasoned away, and that savagely possesses loathsome guttersnipes with splenetic and uncontrollable rage.
It is quite true, of course, that Nomic Players should reserve its stereotypes and labels and remember to treat others with a bit more respect and equality. But if we briefly prescind from the main point of this letter we can focus on how there is a problem here. A large, lamebrained, evil problem. Nomic Players's lieutenants remain largely silent when asked about the correlative connecting Nomic Players to anti-intellectualism. The rare times they do deign to comment they invariably skew the issue to prevent people from realizing that only through education can individuals gain the independent tools they need to rake Nomic Players over the coals for bombarding me with insults. But the first step is to acknowledge that Nomic Players's morals all stem from one, simple, faulty premise—that its publications will spread enlightenment to the masses, nurture democracy, reestablish the bonds of community, bring us closer to God, and generally work to the betterment of Man and society.
As such, I can only conclude that Proposal 321 should be thus: Amend 320 to read that the head-to-head competition, as determined by the consensus of the mob, must be resolved in best 2 out of 3 fashion.
