Used to comment, using burner now because I swore off commenting but this is worth wading in again.

MBC’s image macro was always timely, and always appropriate. And holy shit, did it ever set off the right wing passers-by. I think at least a good dozen of them went straight to his profile after every prominent mass-shooting, just waiting to bellyache about the heat he would bring.

I think Bear woman is a dude and possibly MD. No interacting, just dismissing. Seem familiar? I’m quitting Jez tonight so Katie bar the door, all my conspiracy theories are running amok!

Heeeey, I’m the other commenter from that thread who Bear person keeps dismissing when I tell him I’m not one person with a million burners created just to poop on poor Moral Dictator. I think Bear is a dude by the way. A dude here to stir shit like you know who (hint: MD)

Not sure if you’re being serious but my real life Jez friend is convinced MD and his allegedly female supporters are just a bunch of reddit turds tryng to drive women off this site. She says his obtuse comments and agreeable meandering defense when criticized is just a way to divert women from discussing the issues on…

And now we are being dismissed by Bear Woman for offering up our comment history as proof that we aren’t one person with multiple burners.

Since Bear Woman keeps dismissing my attempt at discrediting the “same person different burner theory,” I’ll comment here.

Still single kvetcher with one burner.

THIS! I have no dog in this current fight, but I’ve also been here since the beginning, and there are always “top dog” commenters who seek out that status, and MD is certainly one of those people. It’s weird, because most of those commenters have some sort of niche expertise or insight that is actually valuable, but…

He’s obviously Flying Squid. I’m not sure why people don’t realize this. I don’t comment much, but have been a longtime reader, and MD aligns with Squid perfectly. And who honestly thought Squid would actually disappear? The UK thing is just a cover.

I’m not talking about how women sometimes mistreat each other here, that’s human nature and will happen. I’m talking about how a 20 something dude muscles in on almost every post on a feminist website. It’s rude and he doesn’t care, read his gaslighting b.s. responses in this thread. This is my last Jez night, I’m…

Funny you mention that; I was just doing the same and came across some Hall of Famers from ca. 2009-2013. I remember when Cheerful Exgirlfriend and Burl Ives Left Nut were spinning comment gold. Same with the O.G. Milton Berle’s Cock and Kittens And Unicorns. I think a few of them even started their own podcasts.

...............lol.........who would’ve thought BarfBar would eclipse the SATC Brawl...............lol....BTW, I starred your comment, but every time I star someone tonite, it TAKES AWAY one of their stars, WTF?.....

Well said. Start a blog if you want uk politics discussed. I am not American so I generally skip most politics posts that are American specific (pre trump at least!) But i dont write and research and link to politics in my country daily on an American blog that isn asking me to be a writer.

The core problem is that you don’t care how you come across to other people. You want to say what you want to say and you don’t care how it is received (or rather, how it is received will not stop you saying what you want to say).

I can tell you that if you are actually trying to be aware of how much space you take up, it is not showing. Yours always seems to be one of the top two or three comments on a lot of articles. And quite often only at most 10 or so comments actually have significant amounts of replies. So if you’re always posting early…

snipped for brevity’s sake:

“I’m not doing them for vanity’s sake, I’m doing it because even if it’s just a few people who enjoy it they still want me to provide them.” And

Thanks for the well reasoned reply, I do appreciate it.

Agreed, kind of reminds me of Squid.
