HARMONIC'S PROFILE

But this is RMN and I'm Harmonic and that means I'm automatically going to be dogpiled no matter what,

You know, Harm, I've known you a really long time. And I told you this back when we talked on a fairly regular basis, and at that time, I said it as a friend who was genuinely concerned for your well-being.

It's not us. It's you.

Every time I see your cat pic posting in a thread, I know I'm about to be treated to a flurry of maudlin, woe-is-me comments about how everyone hates you, and it's been like that for... god, how long have I known you? More than 10 years?

Since day one you've been like that, Harm. Maybe you ought to take a long, hard look at this "re-evaluate" advice you keep giving everyone and apply it inwardly for once.

I'm sorry, but it is awfully ironic to read you of all people utter the term "professional victim."

Badluck. I want you to listen carefully.

First, no, you've not known me for a very long time. You've known *of* me.

You are taking a very "come to Jesus", matter-of-fact tone with me, when that is not only unnecessary, but also obnoxious, and also it enables people like Craze who, yes, will blow up at me because I'm me, and this has been proven multiple times. That's not being a victim, that's stating a fact. Look how many times Craze has been warned by mods here. Major vindication recently with Corfaisus's suspension, indicating that yes, he basically logs on looking for a fight.

The context of my statement "professional victim" was specifically in regards to agitators in the political realm. People who say "white cismale shitlord" every 0.5 seconds and things of that nature. Very different context than me stating quite accurately that a handful of belligerents at RMN will automatically get personal with me, no matter what I say. Proof is everywhere. And multiple people have backed me up, mostly in PMs (as they've also been dogpiled by the same agitators) and sometimes publicly.

Fact, not opinion. Not maudlin. I state it when no emotion, no facial affect whatsoever. It's just like "there they go again."

The one mistake I've made with that is wording it in a way that suggests it's the entire website, when it's clearly just a handful of regulars who cannot shed their GW.net-style, RPGAdvocate style, 4chan shit-posting style posting.

Considering this is a political thread right after a Trump victory and many hard feelings all around, it has been considerably civil, with a few minor bumps in the road from Craze and Kaempfer.

If you were sincere, you would have PM'ed me. But you made your post public. Disappointing, BL.

otherwise you may turn out like harm

Case in point. I haven't spoken with Karsu in years, haven't provoked in this thread, and in comes the auto-shitpost. FACT, not maudlin. It doesn't affect my day, but I'm not going to sit here and lie and say it doesn't happen!

Also lol@ harmonic using "liberals" as a catch-all term for everyone he doesn't like. What a fucking guy.

That's not how I'm using it. That might be how YOU use it (terms flipped), but don't put words in my mouth. I'm referring to liberals specifically.

But this is RMN and I'm Harmonic and that means I'm automatically going to be dogpiled no matter what, so I get it. I'll see your personal grudge and raise you anti-Trump protestors are saying "RAPE MELANIA" and "ASSASSINATE TRUMP". I wasn't going to even bring it up, but Kaempfer decided to take this pretty civil discussion and drag it into hateful territory again.

If I'm supposed to like people that call for raping Melania Trump, then we can't find common ground.

My favorite is when, considering black subjects/social situations/etc a bunch of 'conscious' white people tell me how to feel as a black man and what I should and shouldn't be offended by. This attitude was especially evident during the height of Bernie Sanders campaign. "WHY DON'T YOU BLACK PEOPLE VOTE FOR BERNIE SANDERS!? DON'T YOU KNOW WHAT'S GOOD FOR YOU????" Fuck off, man.

Multiple African American friends up here have said the same thing. It's refreshing to see other people notice they're being TOLD what to think. Not much hurts more than being told to do something or being accused of something because of something you can't change.

Society made it taboo to be conservative. So, conservatives pushed underground. But they didn't go away. So the perception was that our army was much weaker than it actually was.

Don't censor, don't shame, don't SJW and your enemies will be proudly out in the open. And maybe they won't even be your enemies anymore.

There was a very real, tangible basis for a demagogue like Trump to appear, that some liberals underestimate. He appealed to the mounting populist outcry, their working-class struggle, and in some cases, the rejection of multiculturalism in America. By comparison, Hillary had almost zero appeal for true liberals, progressives, and populist working-class. They simply didn't buy into her schtick.

Wow BM I uh.... didn't expect this level of candor I gotta admit. Well said.
