Duncan Black Asks Why Clinton Supporters Are So Cranky

And he asks that while maintaining one of the crankier blogs on the net.   I mean, have you ever watched them going after each other?  Wielding one cliche after another, one threadbare assertion after another, one false factoid after another?   It's like a cage of lazy, pissy,  rather stupid movie critics over there. 

The handful of regulars who have any intelligence will eventually realize that it's the cause of their chronic annoyance and lethargy and leave, eventually.   Someone, I think it was at Guns and Lawyers, once said to me, Yeah, I don't go there much anymore, the comments are a nightmare.  I asked him what there was to it other than the comments, he couldn't think of anything. 

Update:  Stalker Guy is trying to stump me by asking if prostitutes are selling their bodies what about coal miners. Well, who says they aren't?   I'd say they're remarkably similar in that they are both hazardous to your health and your life, both of them are horrible and both lines of making money spread the risks to those who aren't involved, coal mining in the role it plays in global warming, prostitution in the role it plays in spreading sexually transmitted diseases.  

However, if you don't think there's a difference, S.G. why don't you go get some bigger, stronger guy who wants you to do whatever thing with your anus, your mouth, etc that he wants you to and might do anything from refusing to pay you to beating the crap out of you to killing you if you refuse and maybe if you comply.    Oh, and, did I mention, he's infected with hepatitis C and HIV and is going to give you anal warts. Go do that and report on how that's like coal mining. 

Update 2:  Apparently the great sophisticate, that NYC hipster finds it shocking that someone would know what happens to prostitutes, as if no one had ever written about it before, as if you don't find that reported in the newspaper.  Maybe he didn't read them.   Good grief.  And here I'm supposed to be the hick.   

Update 3:  And now he's pulling the "you've looked at porn so you don't get to criticize it" routine again.   

I've already said that I'm not going to fall for that porn industry Catch 22, that if you've never seen porn you can't criticize it because you don't know what you're talking about and if you've looked at it to see what it is you can't criticize it because you've looked at it.  

And here, he passes himself off to the simpletons who take him seriously as having been a journalist.   Well, he was never a real journalist, though he's not the only phony journalist to repeat the porn industry line in the paragraph above.  As if someone could develop any valid opinion of something that they had a right to report on if they'd never seen it.   It's like telling a war correspondent that they don't get to report on war because they've looked at battles and the carnage of battles.   I guess the jerk who stalks me is the Bill O'Reilly kind of reporter who reports on things he's never seen.   I mean, what kind of reportorial skills does it take to listen to an LP and tell someone if you liked it.   See what I said about stupid critics above.
