mojomonkey Posted April 19, 2014 Share Posted April 19, 2014 I don't know why I bother, discussion is nigh on impossible with someone who constantly moves the goalposts. Am I a shill? I'm neither employed by any government or any private sector company but I have been employed by both in the past. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thomas Jefferson Posted April 19, 2014 Share Posted April 19, 2014 It's either that or you were both star pupils at the government indoctrination centres you were "educated" (dumbed down) at as adolescents, with first class distinction for sheepish adherence to the official party line and incredulity for anything that contradicts it.

mojomonkey Posted April 19, 2014 Share Posted April 19, 2014 I think it very likely that you and Chinahand are both management level of employees of the IOM Government. Either that, or you are star pupils of the government indoctrination centres you were "educated" (dumbed down) at as adolescents and have been conditioned to fall for their lies hook, line and sinker. Can't speak for Chinahand but I'm not an employee of IoM Government. I freely admit that I used to be employed by them but I certainly wouldn't have described my position as management level. On that basis (following your logic) I must have been a star pupil at a government indoctrination centre. If I sent you my address will you send me one of your finest tinfoil hats?

Thomas Jefferson Posted April 19, 2014 Share Posted April 19, 2014 I was employed by them as well and may still be -- what does that prove? I'm not suggesting everyone in government is in on some sort of conspiracy. As George Carlin said: you don't need a formal conspiracy when interests converge. Actually, it's not as black and white as public versus private sector, as the western world is fascist and the government and large corporations are one and the same establishment structure.

Thomas Jefferson Posted April 19, 2014 Share Posted April 19, 2014 At the very beginning I said "government shills" and in the same sentence I said "or brainwashed minions", meaning people who are just gullible and follow what authority tells them to think and ridicule anyone who says anything that contradicts officialdom.

Bobbie Bobster Posted April 19, 2014 Share Posted April 19, 2014 @mojo I believe it really is pointless to engage (although I do slip occasionally...) He's proved very resilient to logic over the past 9,000 posts. So if he's trolling, he's not going to be moved by trying to discuss issues rationally, or embarassed by pointing out the endless inconsistencies in his postings. On the other hand, if he is unwell, then you're possibly (but I'm only saying possibly) doing further harm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
