Startling discovery about trolls

After his deportation from the US to Canada, Zündel has fought to stop Canada from deporting him to Germany where he faces prosecution for his neo-**** and Holocaust-denying activities. Zündel’s latest move has been to challenge the constitutionality of the Canadian immigration law under whose provisions he is being processed.
Since the late 1970s, Ernst Zundel has run Samisdat Publishers, one
of the largest distributors of **** and neo-**** propaganda and
memorabilia in the world. He is also the inspiration for and key
content provider of http://www.zundelsite.org , since 1995 a leading online
repository of Holocaust-denial propaganda. His activities have led
to numerous trials in Canada and made him subject to probable
arrest should he ever attempt to return to Germany. Adept at
attracting media attention, Zundel has usually relished his legal
battles with what he calls the "Holocaust industry." Recently,
after several important legal defeats, he married his Webmaster,
Ingrid Rimland, and moved to Tennessee.
Since we're into interesting observations I just thought of
historic 'trolls' to add to the list. The most famous of which must
be Jesus who was banned for trolling quite a bit. Can't recall
precisely if Galileo was banned in the same sense but he was at
least put up for it. I'm sure you can think of others.
Maybe we shouldn't jump to conclusions on unpopular views.
No, we shouldn't.

Just like Galileo was banned and persecuted for his unpopular
views, today we're seeing a similar phenomenon with Ernst Zundel,
who has been imprisoned in Canada.

"Ernst Zundel is being held in solitary confinement solely for the
non-violent expression of his political views.”
  • Canadian Association for Free Expression (CAFE)
"Zundel — who did this country a favour by wiping off the books our
disgraceful False News laws — has never once been convicted of a
criminal offence in this country, never once found to have violated
the hate crime laws that rest snugly around the throat of free
expression in this country."

If I was in Germany and I said, "There ain't no holocaust," could I be convicted? (I used a double negative which means that I said there was a holocaust.)

If I was in Germany and said "What we call 'reality' is only a computer simulation that started when I was born in 1946," I would be implying that there was no holocaust. Could I be put in jail, as opposed to a insane asylum?

Holocaust denial in germany is indeed a criminal offense but that's beside the point. If you read this guy's lifestory, he turns out to be a rabiate racist white-power idiot.

Now that is criminal just about anywhere under "incitement to racial violence". Not sure about the US though, guess you can say just about anything there.

"I disapprove of what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it."
-- Voltaire

Zundel is described as being a Holocaust denier. So who are these....!!! Naaaah, forget it, don't listen to me, listen to what some of the Jewish people have to say about this:

Henry Makow Ph.D., himself a grandson of Holocaust victims:
http://www.savethemales.ca/000163.html

"I am also troubled by the attempt to classify people like Ernst Zundel as a "hate criminal." Zundel's website claims only one million Jews were murdered, there were no gas chambers, and Hitler didn't intend genocide. Zundel's claims are repugnant, but he has a right to be wrong. Society needs people to dispute the historical record. One may be right. If spreading false information is a crime, shouldn't we also lock up Tom Brokaw?

..."When questioning the truth becomes "hate", we have entered Orwell's "1984" era of thought crime. Don't kid yourself. This is the slippery slope to tyranny and Jewish organizations are partly to blame. We must stand up in defiance.

..."The charge of hate is used selectively to disarm legitimate opposition. The definition of "hatred" is very selective. For example...The Talmud is full of hatred against Christ and Christians, but that doesn't count...

..."Jewish powerbrokers use anti Semitism to disarm opposition to their political agenda. The promotion of the Jewish Holocaust maintains the Jews' status as the world's premier "victims." This gives them immunity from criticism. It makes people feel more favourable to them and more willing to accede to their direction and influence."

Remember, those are the words of a Jew. And here's another one, Professor Norman Finkelstein, a Jewish American and author of "The Holocaust Industry." Finkelstein, of the University of New York, argues that our present interpretation of the Holocaust has been deliberately devised by American Jewish groups for purposes of ethnic supremacy, political advantage and financial gain.

http://www.adelaideinstitute.org/Dissenters/finkelstein.htm

"My parents often wondered why I would grow so indignant at the falsification and exploitation of the **** genocide. The most obvious answer is that it has been used to justify criminal policies of the Israeli state and US support for these policies. There is a personal motive as well. I do care about the memory of my family's persecution. The current campaign of the Holocaust industry to extort money from Europe in the name of 'needy Holocaust victims' has shrunk the moral stature of their martyrdom to that of a Monte Carlo casino.

..."In recent years, the Holocaust industry has become an outright extortion racket. Purporting to represent all of world Jewry, living and dead, it is laying claim to Holocaust-era Jewish assets throughout Europe.

..."The Holocaust industry has always been bankrupt. What remains is to openly declare it so. The time is long past to put it out of business. The noblest gesture for those who perished is to preserve their memory, learn from their suffering and let them, finally, rest in peace."

"There is something slightly absurd - if not laughable - about the fact that the United States should erect a museum to the **** Holocaust, but not, for example, erect a museum to commemorate the African-American slavery or the extermination of the native population."
  • Norman Finkelstein

No, you are missing the point. Survivors of the holocaust chant, "How could this happen! How could this happen!" Yet, almost 60 years later, all lawmakers can come up with are stupid knee jerk reactions without considering the consequences in the big picture. I have yet to hear people, even Rabbies, intellectually discuss, "Does the ends justify the means." Zündel is being persecuted only for his beliefs and the verbal expression of those beliefs. That is pretty close to religious persecution. What's next, gas him to death? So, who are the real Nazis, here? Not Zündel, because he is not the one advocating that the ends justifies the means.

If you do not think that such holocaust denial laws are stupid, knee jerk reactions that do more harm than good, then you should be able to seriouly answer my two previous questions.
Now that is criminal just about anywhere under "incitement to
racial violence". Not sure about the US though, guess you can say
just about anything there.

"I disapprove of what you say, but I will defend to the death your
right to say it."
-- Voltaire
Except for one minor little detail. Voltaire never actually said that, or at least it never appears in his known writings. It's generally accepted that Evelyn Beatrice Hall, a 20th century biographer, wrote it when attempting to describe Voltaire's feelings on certain issues.

"'I disapprove of what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it,' was his attitude now."

Evelyn Beatrice Hall under the pseudonym S[tephen] G. Tallentyre, "The Friends of Voltaire", 1906.

And in the contect of Tallentyre, it's critical of Voltaire, not a lauding of any noble principle.

Thanks for the tons of good info.
Post apocolyptic series called Jeremiah. Made for cable, aired on
ShowTime.
Hmm. I don't watch much TV these days (and no ShowTime).

Joe, have you seen "Jeremiah"?
Unfortunatly not. As you said "I don't watch much TV these days (and no ShowTime)".
Is it as well written as B5 (at
least seasons 2-4) was? Maybe it didn't have enough time to build
up, but I wasn't all that thrilled with "Crusade".
You're ahead of me. I only saw two episodes of Crusade.
In terms of quirky Sci Fi, I thought Joss Whedon's "Firefly" was
more interesting to watch than "Crusade", on average. Of course,
JMS had a much larger story to develop than Joss appeared to be
doing.
Only saw one or two episodes of Firefly. Maybe I just saw the wrong ones, because I thought it had too much blowing up of stuff and not enough plot...
Hmm: Joe S Wisniewski, Joe S and Joss W ...
J. Michael Straczynski is actually Joseph Michael Straczynski
If I changed my first name to start with "Jo" or last name to have
a "W", then would I suddenly acquire the desire/ability to write
prolifically? :-)
It would help if you were born a Polish Joe ;)
Are you Armenian? I'm a Klavanian on my mother's side.
PS: network execs seem to have taken G'Kar's words as an edict for

I must pay more attention to what I read.

I've reading the comic book "Supreme Power" for the first 11 issues (almost a year) and never noticed that JMS is writing it.

And "Strange", although I've only read the first two issued of that.

I like "Supreme Power", but find his retconning of "Strange" to be rather annoying. Although not as bad as the Stephen Strange with the long hair and John Lennon glasses several years ago.

Ger Bee - one of the sites most famous trolls. System switcher,
trolls about Nikon, Canon, Epson.
Joined October 25, 2000. Banned October 18, 2004, 7 days from his
"anniversary" date, after getting a bit too wild in one of his
Nikon D2H threads
..... I find it quite disturbing that someone can take the time to track and collect information on any individual, I think this behaviour is genuinely sad, but more importantly contravenes civil liberties and must surely alert the finny-farm ambulance drivers.

The information on this board is public but any individual who proclaims to be using this to track and keep records of individuals is open to scrutiny by the data protection agencies around the world.

Part of the reason that I was banned a second time was because people like the poster and Cullen and one or two more made it virtually impossible for me to comment on anything at all, I got mad, lost the rag and I deserved to have been banned ~ but I got at the wrong people.

However, for my own mental health these forums are better off avoided, but I do see how much an influence I’ve had on theses Troll hunters and that gives me immense satisfaction, I have not posted sine I was banned (until now) and I am still being mentioned by name ~ my former pseudonym is Ger Bee.

As a non posting observer I was able to see with a new light and two recent postings on Canon v Nikon had totally different reactions on the Nikon board than anywhere else ~ I am convinced that a few of the replies to those posters were actually thought to be to me, they said the same things and naturally the troll and posting history was used as evidence.

Anyway the USA elected Bush, now once might have been a mistake but twice … see what I mean?

I think the poster has shown his true mental state in this post, I don’t pity him, it’s his own bitterness coming out, but when it involves documented and stored ‘evidence’ of individual’s with the intent of using that ‘against’ the individuals concerned means that a visit from Interpol or the FBI is in order.

Have a nice day.

We have some seriously mentally ill people poisoning minds …

…. when one kills a Troll why have a resurrection ceremony on the eve of their anniversary … the original poster should be in a padded cell, at least I wake up with a hangover which clears with a brisk walk and some fresh air.

My BA is self induced, maybe from too much Guinness at times, but this poster’s illness’s prognosis is terminal ~ engineers go like that, they have to over analysis everything, they have to be proud of the fact that the Twin Towers fell the way they were designed to … still I don’t feel like saying “great job!” Do you, really?
 
It was still hilarious to read and he definately gave the write a lot of thought. Cheers!

Why?

Why lock someone up just because of their beliefs? Unless they are causing physical harm to others or self, which is clearly not the case.

Even if he is as mad as a hatter, as you make him out to be, still, that's no reason to treat him in such a manner. If one can be locked up for simply questioning the government's version of things then it's a very sad day indeed.

"anniversary" date, after getting a bit too wild in one of his
Nikon D2H threads
..... I find it quite disturbing that someone can take the time to
track and collect information on any individual,
It took much less time than Ger's posts (over 10,000) about how bad his last camera was. And much less disturbing than being so obsessed about "things". People are much more importan than "things", in the overall scheme of things.
I think this
behaviour is genuinely sad,
Quite true. I agree that your faking a Ger Bee post is really, really sad.
but more importantly contravenes civil
liberties
The civil liberties of an anonymous poster?
and must surely alert the finny-farm ambulance drivers.
Agin, I'd say an over 10,000 post obsession is what will really alert the "finny-farm". (note, Ger spells better, and raves more. You really don't have the style down, at all).
The information on this board is public but any individual who
proclaims to be using this to track and keep records of individuals
is open to scrutiny by the data protection agencies around the
world.
OK, now that's better raving. It combines a total ignorance of facts with nice overtones of conspiracy theory. But it's still not Ger style.
Part of the reason that I was banned a second time was because
people like the poster and Cullen and one or two more made it
virtually impossible for me to comment on anything at all, I got
mad, lost the rag and I deserved to have been banned ~ but I got at
the wrong people.
The only person Ger has a right to be mad at is Ger. He posted a tremendous amount of totally correect information. It was not just "one or two" people that made it impossible for him to post, it was the hundreds of people who corrected information he presented in his raves.
However, for my own mental health
Do you mean the you who is posting the fake Ger Bee stuff?
these forums are better off
avoided, but I do see how much an influence I’ve had on theses
Troll hunters and that gives me immense satisfaction,
Well, again, it would be Ger, and he's commented on previous occasions when we rated him a poor troll, at best. He doesn't share your illusions of grandeur. Again, you need to study some Ger Bee posts before faking them.

[Canon rant and Bush rant deleted]
I think the poster has shown his true mental state in this post, I
don’t pity him, it’s his own bitterness coming out,
Nothing "coming out" from me but humor. Now, the bitterness that caused you to impersonate Ger to say these things really does say something about your mental state. Have you got such a poor self image that you didn't believe you'd get any attention posting as yourself?
but when it
involves documented and stored ‘evidence’ of individual’s with the
intent of using that ‘against’ the individuals concerned means that
a visit from Interpol or the FBI is in order.
I quite agree. Your impresonation (even of someone who posted under a pseudonym) does seem to have some criminal overtones. However, it's probably not a sufficiently serious crime to attract any attention.

But he will likely return with another nick, as any genuine troll

Listen I'm the greatest, you pay me the greatest homage.
No. You're just impersonating Ger Bee. That doesn't make you "the greatest". Your impersonation isn't very good, and Ger Bee wasn't a very good troll to begin with. He's just a statistic, someone who exhibited the same behavior (doing something to get banned, within 3 weeks of his anniversary) as many other trolls, net kooks, and other abberant (but difficult to classify) personalities.

In short, he was just one of the pack, and dooing an imitiation of someone who wasn't really special to begin with makes you, well, nothng special at all.
But it is
rather difficult to defend oneself
Just because you believe it would be difficult for Ger Bee to defend himself doesn't justify your creation of this rather pathetic hoax. Your not really helping him. Of course, it's most likely that you just did this to gain attention for yourself, or to take a shot at me, rather than any geniune attempt to defend Ger Bee.
and I had no intention of taking
another ID just to post, but in this thread … ?

We have some seriously mentally ill people poisoning minds …
I agree. You really should stop such behavior.
…. when one kills a Troll
No one killed any of the trolls mentioned. They all committed suicide.
why have a resurrection ceremony on the
eve of their anniversary
That's why the original observation was so interesting, 6 people "killed themselves" within weeks of their anniversaries.
… the original poster should be in a
padded cell,
That particular personal attack is totally out of character, and really spoils your Ger Bee impersonation.
at least I wake up with a hangover which clears with a
brisk walk and some fresh air.
Ah, you admit to a drinking problem. That explains your hostility, your grammar, and the weakness of your arguments. It also explains why your self image is so poor that you would do this pathetic Ger Bee impersonation.

An interesting note I have noticed some people repeatedly become

but I have not been able to find enough data for a study as to
causes.
Ray, this "seven days" fellow who did such a bad Ger Bee imitation in this thread put me onto a new line of thought.

Maybe the yearly ritual is not an "outburst" per se, but an attempted suicide (which worked, in the 6 cases I noted).

There are documented links between suicides and birthdays.

The fellow in the Nikon (coolpix) forum who photographed women on beaches with his twist on telephoto adapter? He had a 990 I think and when the 5000 came out it only went to 115mm (as I recell) he freaked out ranting about the need for more mm. It didn't take long to figure out his fetish. This went on for a month or two.

Most of his work was on his web site but occasionally he'd post a beach shot. Technically legal but very intrusive. Anyway when folks started teasing him about his "hobby" he started going wild and getting verbally abusive.

Finally he posted an innocuously titled message with a link which was to a VERY pornographic site. I came in early to work that day and caught it before Phil pulled it (and him). Holy cow! Michael, or something like that.

Bob's not like Ger, Dan, Steve (SG10). His Liquid_Alimpus and
Orimpus accounts, and every single one of the posts he made under
those names were deleted.
Not sure if you meant every single one of the posts he made under
those two names above, or all names, were deleted. Because here's
one under his Iracariaus name:

Yeah, that's a mild one. Most of Bob's "Iracariaus" posts are still
there. Only the last few were deleted, the ones about the torture,
mutilation, and sexual abuse of people's loved ones.

All the "Liquid_Alimpus" and "Orimpus" posts were deleted (along
with the accounts), probably because at that point Bob was posting
nothing but the graphic abuse stuff.

Salvage troll posts! When you see a thread started by a troll, post
something useful to it. It will drive the trolls up the wall. ;)
