Wow. You are one of the thickest I've ever seen. No matter how stupid they appear to be, you still cling to using arguments which only serve to make you look absolutely bat-shit crazy. Consider me astounded.

This is the self-affirming logic of the conspiracy theorist. Anyone who opposes him is either a mindless sheep, is brainwashed by "the media" or is In On It. Of course, any vaguely reputable sources such as education, books and experts are figures of The Establishment and are also In On It to varying degrees and thus count for nothing in a debate.

By contrast, anyone who agrees with the him is a free-thinker who sees things as they really are. By daring to think against the grain, they have automatically and almost irrevocably demonstrated their intelligence in a way no contrary perspective ever can. This is particularly true of those free-thinkers who encase their intelligence in the form of Youtube videos and websites.

Far from creating a one-sided circular mindset that denies any possibility of a rational opponent, this thinking is actually the most infallible way of stripping the lies and bullshit from the Truth.

I don't know if you've heard of or read him, but this reminds me of Robert Jay Lifton who's done some fairly intensive work investigating totalitarian thought reform. He's a bit of a heavy read but you might like him.

Don’t you just love the intellectual commitment of these guys? They’ll post nonsense for dozens of pages, fight for “the truth”, but when the going gets tough, suddenly responding to very direct criticisms of their nonsense is not worth their time. I guess this shows why the fabian socialists won, huh? I strongly suspect iStupid didn’t even understand occ’s reply which is why he’s trying to pull this shit.

Wow. You're quite the pretentious douche aren't you? Because attempts to respond to your posts with civility in the hopes of engaging in rational discourse only seem to encourage mockery and belittlement as your defense, as opposed to actually addressing the counter argument, I'll briefly elaborate why it is I'm not going to even make an effort to continue this conversation.

Ad hominem

See, it's not that I can't respond to what you've said ... it's just that there's nothing to respond to.

I suppose I could reiterate what I said in my first sentence ...

There are some good books over at mises.org if you want to learn economics! A lot of free things too!

Why can't you debate what you've learned from Mises here? Kind of lame to just tell us, "Go read about it!" It's also not like we don't know what the Austrian school believes.

I'd much rather, you bring to the table, something that interests you from the Mises.org, and we have a nice discussion about it. I'd love to see you have a real debate with occrider. I challenge you to it. I hope occrider is in.

Fantastic book, Stalin. I highly suggest that you read it. It's very cheap too!

I’ve actually heard this book is pretty good, albeit from other armchair, no-degree motherfuckers. Pity its missing 60 years of economic history though.
