Matthew 25:26 His lord answered and said unto him, Thou wicked and slothful servant, thou knewest that I reap where I sowed not, and gather where I have not strawed:

27 Thou oughtest therefore to have put my money to the exchangers, and then at my coming I should have received mine own with usury.

28 Take therefore the talent from him, and give it unto him which hath ten talents.

29 For unto every one that hath shall be given, and he shall have abundance: but from him that hath not shall be taken away even that which he hath.

Do you people know who <richard taylor> really is? Read for yourself and decide.

<Richard Taylor: not only I, but millions of people enjoyed, and indeed hugely enjoyed, watching the towers come down...on that fascinating day, my son and I watched (albeit from different loci) the news from the US and it was on all day: it was, and remains, one of the most memorable and fascinating, exciting and enjoyable days of TV watching I have ever experienced.>

You think he's not a <terrorist sympathizer>?

He doesn't like me running his underwear up the flagpole like this, and complains to the admins that I'm attacking him, but I'm just copying and pasting his own words for all to see.

Here, check this out:

<I might be a bit extreme in belonging to the "Celebrate 9/11 Day Club" but wherever I go people tell (in confidence of course) how they admire my stance.> Queenstown Chess Classic (2012) (kibitz #12)

This guy, <richard taylor> isn't some nice old man that has a groucho marx avatar. He's like a Nazi, except that he hates America. You know how they would sometimes find these old Nazis in the 1990s and you'd see them on TV and think, hey, that's just some old man now. But then when you see the hate they have, you see past the "harmless old man" routine and see the evil.

Look here:

<I do admire Iran (and North Korea) though (considering the indignities the noble Arab people have had to suffer at the hands chewing gum chewing sodomitic Yanks) and hope they soon get nuclear strike capability and wipe out the US entirely.> Queenstown Chess Classic (2012)

He gets wood without viagra when he starts to fantasize about wiping out America.

You know, when he's drinking, it all comes out.

<Fiery and terribly painful extermination of all US citizens is my dearest wish...> Queenstown Chess Classic (2012) (kibitz #13)

He asked the admins to censor me, because he is embarrassed by his own hatred, but these are his words and he is old enough to be accountable for them.

Yes

<You think he's not a <terrorist sympathizer>?>

No

<You know, when he's drinking, it all comes out.>

So far as I know Richard doesn't drink.

No>

You come to my forum to be dishonest? Look at this statement:

<<Richard Taylor: not only I, but millions of people enjoyed, and indeed hugely enjoyed, watching the towers come down...on that fascinating day, my son and I watched (albeit from different loci) the news from the US and it was on all day: it was, and remains, one of the most memorable and fascinating, exciting and enjoyable days of TV watching I have ever experienced.>>

No.

<Does this statement show that <richard taylor> sympathizes with the USA over 911 or with the <terrorists>?>

It shows that Richard found the event to be memorable and fascinating not that he sympathizes with either the USA or terrorists.>

You conveniently forgot this Benzol:

<it was, and remains, one of the most memorable and fascinating, exciting and enjoyable days of TV watching I have ever experienced.>

That means he did not sympathize with the Americans but rather with the terrorists.

That's why <Richard Taylor> is a <terrorist sympathizer>.

My personal attestation is based on a bit more knowledge of the man than you have and not just on a few meagre posts at this site. For you it's like having a jigsaw puzzle without all the pieces and not knowing what the full picture looks like.

I also like <Richard Taylor>, though we've had plenty of acrimonious fights over the years. Like <Benzol>, I am sure he isn't a terrorist sympathizer.

There is something else- when <Richard> first mentioned that <911> made for an enjoyable TV experience, he was explicitly referencing the postmodern philosophical theory of <Jean Baudrillard>, and in particular his notion of <The Evil Demon of Images>. He explicitly mentioned <Baurdrillard> in the posts you folks are seizing on.

<Baudrillard> controversially claimed that on the level of personal experience, people no longer made any real distinction between fictional TV and "real" TV news. He used this example- he said the most viewers made no meaningful distinction between viewing <The China Syndrome> (a movie) and viewing news reports on <Three Mile Island> (an actual disaster).

This was meant to be at least partially tongue in cheek, or ironic. It was an exaggeration to prove a point about how uncritically "postmodern man" absorbs media, or the "Evil Demons of Images."

<Baudrillard> got raked over the coals by fellow philosophers for this- they accused him of being "immoral." I don't think he was.

And I know <Richard Taylor> isn't immoral, or at least he's shown no sign of that to me at cg.com.

He's certainly no terrorist sympathizer. In my opinion, you guys throw that term around too loosely at cg.com altogether- <Jim Bartle> as a terrorist sympathizer?

lol

Not opinion but fact.

<Richard Taylor:> <re <Benzol - he is in hospital tonight (at last report) with suspected appendicitis - I hope he is ok - I'll phone his father in the morning - Peter. Peter is very gentle and kindly man. Paul's a good sort also - he was around at my place a week ago on Sunday and we looked at some games. E.g. We looked at Roger Clarke - Rodney Philips played in 1963! He borrowed some old NZ Chess Mags I had... I hope he is ok.>

Hi Octavia. The price of housing has risen throughout NZ. There are a number of factors, more people, general inflation and a housing shortage. <<And those of the Bourgeoisie who simply have too much money.>> It's not a new thing though. I am keeping hold of my own house.

I don't think anyone seriously thinks there will be a nuclear war. NZ wont necessarily be safe as we and Australian are allies of the UK and the USA. So we are targets. But perhaps not nuclear.

...

The NZ Government are supposedly funding more housing. They are a bit slow so one suspects some of them are in league with overseas billionaires. But speculators come from everywhere.

<<The answer is a world wide revolution so we can exterminate such as Big Pawn and his mates and all the rich bastards on this earth.>> <<<Peoples' incomes need to be limited.>>> That applies to pop stars and singers film actors and others...they all get paid too much.

Workers of the world, unite! As Marx wrote. >

So, people should not be allowed to get ahead in life. If your music gives people enjoyment in life, and they pay you for it, you need to have that money taken away.

And if you think differently than Richard, well then, you should be exterminated. If you are rich, then automatically you are a bastard and should be exterminated.
