Dutchess64 banned?

You really believe any of her lies?

Come on. She had a PhD in posturing, 'had' a 'childhood' cribbed whole cloth from V.C. Andrews, was about as genius as your average 4channer, and never had a husband. I'm not even convinced 'she' really was a she. The only thing I'm sure of is that 'she' really was as much of a CCP-bot as it seemed.

How do you know she had a PhD? Just curious....

BINGO

that was an account many people posted from...every post starting with "the misogynic racist so and so was to make it appear as one person.

OH NO!!!!!!!! I thought the word racist was over with her demise. Please, say it is over!!!

I never said I LIKED her, but there was truth in some of her posts, especially about historic subjects which is her field.
Acerbic to the extreme though. I chastised here a dozen times, I said you don't win street cred with 'the flag waving white nationalist lying again' kind of posts which clearly did nothing to help her cause, it turned of near everyone her ...[text shortened]... consequences of your words.

Well maybe not you directly, I was speaking of the rightwingers here.

Sonhouse, we would ALL say EVERYTHING to your face, as long as we have a SWAT team standing by. Actually I would LOVE to, and bring my (conservative ) friends to enjoy the show!!!!

"I can tell you honestly, if I were to face you or your OTHER ULTRARIGHWINGNUTJOBS"

That is acerbic. Project much?

Duchess is simply what you get when you someone with lots of book information, unpopular and fairly radical politics and a missing social awareness filter than keeps most people from lashing out about how they really feel at any given moment.

"radical politics"

Any political opinion you disagree with.

because I hate to see people lying...just thought I would give you a chance to redeem yourself...seems I was right.

So you lie yourself?


Sounds like 'the last guy'.

You don't even know you're being played.

Marauder and I have always thought there too many posters put 'Links' in their posts, he and I just hate it. We like personal comments and introspect.

You know, this may be one of the things that the sweet Duchess did a little too much of, and I, together with Marauder of course, have constantly refrained from doing. It is so boring. Don/t we want to know what our t ...[text shortened]... e else's!!!? Marauder hated it more than I did, but I agree with him.

Links should be outlawed!!

Because they have facts which prove your absurd claims false?

And what is wrong, exactly, with never having had a husband?

She had two fans that I am aware. The guy who started the thread is one of them. The other is a white female who D believed was a racist.

Both of her fans generally post something just to complain and belittle. Birds of a feather.

And, you are the king of misinformation.

You even use her banning to further your own agenda.

Your habit of knee-jerk replying seems to have made you confuse me with someone else.

Also, no you wouldn't, you would SHOUT IT just as you have the HABIT of DOING here. It does not make your POINT any more STRONGLY and just makes YOURSELF look BOORISH. I advise you to stop it.

Nothing, but sonhouse referred to 'him' in his eulogy.

What schools give out a Ph.D. in posturing? Do you know of any?

@moonbus said

Neither have I, is why I was asking.

In my opinion, a woman without a husband is like a fish without a bicycle.

Her worth as a human being is not dependent on having one.

This is closer to the truth than most of the knee-jerk judgements people have made about her here. She had a difficult childhood and this perhaps stunted her ability to interact socially. But she wasn't a horrible person. She was just frustrated by having to interact in this forum with a culture she was less familiar with. She had an attenuated ability to sense when people were trying to be honest with her or truthful to her, or even taking her side. She did have a caring side, but it was difficult for her to express that, and I think this again was caused by her difficult childhood and lack of affection from her family. Literally no one here truly understood her, nor made an effort to do so, mostly because she rubbed people the wrong way. I feel it is extremely unfortunate and this must remain as an example to others as to the difficulties some people have with being socially adrift. I will miss her in these forums. She added a much-needed spice to counteract the boring sameness of most threads here.
