I was going to chalk up your twisted way of interpreting my words to your admitted lack of facility with the English language.  However, I then saw what you added to your prior reply after I replied to it:


That’s the second time that you have accused me of trolling.  So, let’s get this straight:

• You:  Hit Godwin-in-one with the coronavirus—and belligerently insist that those who disagree with you just don’t get it, because this can be understood only by those of German or Austrian background, which (as you know through clairvoyance) anyone who disagrees with you must not be.  (I thereby provide to you a Wikipedia link, because you seem to be using Wikipedia to learn about basic n00b concepts pertaining to Internet discussion.)
• Me:  Pointed out that you’re full of it.  Also that you are ignorant of history—your historiography of WWII causes is arrant nonsense.  And check my post history:  Not a troll.

You accuse me of trolling?

LOL, *plonk*.  ← Usenet jargon meaning that I am killfiling you.

Humour note:  My first objection to OutOfMemory’s horrible analogy was titled, “TRUTH: Coronavirus was created in Hitler’s secret lab, hidden in hollow Earth!!”  I extended OutOfMemory’s absurd analogy to make it even more absurder, for funny hyperbole plus a shot at the idiots pushing the “bioweapon” nonsense in the other thread.

Either I caught mad cow disease from the Nazi-bioengineered coronavirus, or eddie13 said something intentionally funny:


Actually, that’s not a bad idea:  Such rhetoric makes about as much sense as much of the other garbage that’s being passed around.

The difference is that you are saying it as a joke, and not as Jürgen-style “I am ashamed and angry” browbeating delivered with tedious scolding about how people who are not of German or Austrian background can’t understand, or I don’t get it, etc., ad nauseam.

What with you being a self-proclaimed “basically am a jew” (stated by you under protection of America’s First Amendment, in terms illegal for OutOfMemory), you would probably be amused by some of the Jürgen skits involving belligerently unhinged apologies to Jews.  Search Youtube—or simply incite OutOfMemory to explain to you how “angry and ashamed” he is.  Due to our history.  Oh, and if you disagree with anything he says about that, it means you just don’t get it—and you are a troll!

Since you are American, you may not be aware that this is a stereotype in Europe, both on the Continent and in the U.K.—thus the skits on British TV.  Unfortunately, as is the case with many stereotypes, there are a significant number of Germans (and Austrians) who behave this way.  Most of them don’t.  But the stereotype sticks, because (0) the ones who are that way are very vocal about it, and (1) political grudges, of course.

Now, I have covered this tangential subject in some detail.  I tend toward approaching such matters thoughtfully, instead of tossing off an invocation of Godwin’s Law to shut down the discussion.  My mistake, I suppose:  Godwin’s Law exists for a reason.

I will therefore decline to carry this discussion further—unless somebody says something peculiarly amusing, such as that Germans should apologize to China and pay reparations for the Hitler Virus.  LOL.
