You see, sometimes, you feel like making a statement to lure some moron into demonstrating that they are just that: a moron. Let us examine the experiment concocted thusly.
So, Sean Hannity’s “Enemy of the State” segment on his show Hannity’s America labeled Sean Penn as an “Enemy of the State”. This video, of course, circulated its way onto YouTube, where the mindless masses screaming “Web 2.0!” commented, most of them commented with quite negative things to say. This seemed like a perfect opportunity to test my hypothesis. I posted this comment:
“Wow, maybe if some of the people commenting on this video could spell, then we’d have some real debate! Go back to kindergarten folks, if you cannot formulate a cohesive statement.”
Oh boy, you could not imagine how amused I was at the reply I got. This is from howler77, I imagine he is a twelve year old.
“Listen to this clown; A Hannity fan uses the word ‘cohesive’ and we should all marvel at how intelligent Hannity’s target audience is? Thank you. There is no debate to be had. FOX pundits pander to this country’s lowest common denominator: That’s you, pal! Hannity is a tool, O’Reilly is a numbskull and FOX News and their Evangelical-Right following will someday be ridiculed on VH1′s “I love the 00′s” the same way Pet Rocks were. last I checked, ‘liberals’ aren’t the ones who lied to the world about WMD’s in Iraq and about the Saddam-9/11 connection. LIED to make a case for a war which accomplished nothing but create more animosity toward the U.S., spawn a new hotbed of extremism and a veritable terrorist factory and cost thousands of American lives. Who you calling a liar? You’re a fucking moron.”
Let’s examine the basis of his argument. Ah, he moves to strike my intelligence first, what a typical start. Striking at the intelligence of someone is a quick way of trying to discredit someone, so it is no surprise that he would stoop to kindergarten tactics. Here’s some more fun: He immediately tries to use my supposed lack of intelligence to bash Fox News. Congratulations sir, you are, no doubt, a shining example of what this country has to offer. Oh, and I love whenever someone brings up the subject of WMDs. Guess what guys? There were WMDs in Iraq. They found Serin Gas and SCUD missiles a plenty, which are both considered WMDs. Here’s another interesting tidbit: Al Qaeda was in South Florida, they were in Afghanistan, they were in Syria, but they weren’t in Iraq? They just showed up the next day right? “howler77″ demonstrates how people are being brainwashed into believing whatever they hear on CBS, or ABC, or MSNBC, except that he tries to emphasize his point like a twelve year old boy. Grow up, sir. YOU HAVE BEEN TROLLED. Have a nice day.
