To absolutely no one's surprise, Canada's Pathologicalest Blogger rings in the new year pretty much the same way she ushered out the old -- with wankery bullshit. Atta girl, Kate -- that's why your fans love you.
You have found a successful formula for providing relentless criticism of the powers that be, while denying them any means of retaliation besides reason and logic. Since they seldom have much of an argument, they are reduced to trollery.
They can't try to use their media control to do a smear campaign, since they can't be associated with the supposed profanity that can be found here. That "cesspool" designation is mostly a fabrication by those who would like you to shut up, but it actually sticks to them more since because of it they therefore cannot be seen here. So using their friends in MSM is out, and they are reduced to using the second stringers. The BTs bemoaning the lack of civility, and telling their readers not to come here, hilariously ironic for the "free speech" warriors.
They also cannot use force, since they can't tie anyone here to a real world identity and pass it to the goons. Though they often try, with blowhards showing up claiming that using real names is somehow better. Usually it is framed as more "manly".
Then there is the never ending stream of concern trolls. That is about the best they can do. That and the insult/annoyance trolls. Seldom do we see anyone come and give even an attempt at a defense of the right wing view, let alone make a convincing argument. Wayne and roblaw are the only ones I can think of that try at all.
Thanks to everyone at CC HQ for all the effort you put in here. Your work is appreciated by many. Certainly by me.
