LOL The co-opting troll complains that others are trying to co-opt OWS!

Anot only does he include the link to the site he's trying to get people to create free content for so he can profit personally, he's already voted himself 6 points here. There are only 20 comments and at least a quarter of them are his.

To add irony to greed and avarice, he doesn't support OWS and has posted here to that effect.

Will the real Richard Gates please stand up?!! I have seen at least three people here posting with some version of that name. What's up with that?

[-] 0 points by nucleus (3291) 13 years ago

Three? He's got at least eight, just look at the number of votes he gives himself.

[-] 0 points by GypsyKing (8708) 13 years ago

Thanks, total confirmation!

[-] 0 points by richardkentgates (3269) 13 years ago

this only confirms that you talk to yourself.

[-] -1 points by richardkentgates (3269) 13 years ago

no, this is the real richard. you stabbed me in the back. did you think i would forget?

[-] 0 points by GypsyKing (8708) 13 years ago

What the hell are you talking about? Nothing, I mean Nothing you have said here has done anything to convince me of whether you are the "real" Richard Gates, whoever that is, or made one iota of sense at all! And who gives a shit whether you forget me or not? You want my opinion - well I gonna give it to you anyway. You are a certified nutjob! Over and OUT!

[-] 0 points by richardkentgates (3269) 13 years ago

http://richardkentgates.com here is your proof, look for your name. your opinion is worthless. i helped drive traffic to your site, i supported you from the beginning, and you stabbed me in the back. your colors are already in the open.

[-] 1 points by GypsyKing (8708) 13 years ago

This is a total fabrication, providing absolute proof of who you work for. This guy is without a doubt a trolltrolltrolltroll.

[-] 0 points by richardkentgates (3269) 13 years ago

lol, because i own my own website i'm a troll? BIG reach. you're on the payroll dude. you have been stalking me under different names for almost a month.

[-] 1 points by GypsyKing (8708) 13 years ago

Yada, yada, yada, yada.

Occupyers! Read The Politics of Fear",2006 by Manuel G. Gonzales and Richard Delgado. This book was written for this type of movement!

Thanks

You know, richard, I haven't been following very closely, but it does begin to appear that your self promotional efforts have become something of a drag on your own advocacy.

Why is that?

[-] 1 points by Var (195) 13 years ago

Themultitide is run by the 1%.

[-] 1 points by GypsyKing (8708) 13 years ago

Back that up.

[-] 0 points by Var (195) 13 years ago

Just look at the posts.

[-] 0 points by GypsyKing (8708) 13 years ago

I did, and it appears that the oposite is true; that your accusation of THEM being tools of the 1% is a complete lie! Anyone going there can quickly verify that. It is you who are the tool of the 1%!

[-] 0 points by Var (195) 13 years ago

I was thinking specifically of the geek economist, who seems to be spreading Neoliberalist lies.

[-] 1 points by TheBrutalKremlin (3) 13 years ago

This is all one complete MESS and the movement is going to fall apart. You need trustworthy moderators. You need leaders. You need a message.

[-] 0 points by GypsyKing (8708) 13 years ago

TheBrutalKremlin? Man, that's even more obvious than Misguidedyouth!

[-] 0 points by ZenDogTroll (13032) from South Burlington, VT 13 years ago

Done - I'm on the_Multitude - as ZenDog.

I left a hello under the General catagory, with links to my website, in case anyone wants to know who I am or if they happen to like good poetry . .. .

And I left links to what I've posted here too - in case anyone wants to follow what I've been advocating.

The link is here:

Good Move! I'd leave links to mine, if I knew how. I'm terrible with tech. stuff. Anyway, I'll see you there. I have made several posts there already. Thanks for heeding the word. This site is now doing more harm than good.

[-] 1 points by ZenDogTroll (13032) from South Burlington, VT 13 years ago

More harm than good?

How so?

[-] 1 points by GypsyKing (8708) 13 years ago

I think the trolls are getting such a hight profile that it harms our image. When the public wants to learn about OWS - where do they automatically go? The OWS site. What do they encounter there? A bunch of nutcase trolls who they probably think is a representation of who we are. I think hey are using the OWS site as effective propoganda against us.

[-] 1 points by ZenDogTroll (13032) from South Burlington, VT 13 years ago

I don't have a good overall view of it - I think in some individual cases trolls may have incentive to reexamine their own positions. Not sure.

The forum is a bit different from the main page,

http://occupywallst.org

which is where most people will end up initially if they find this site. And anyone who has been online any length of time knows what flame wars are, how they are conducted, so . . . I dunno. I hope the trolls haven't been too successful - it doesn't seem too likely - but I don't have analytical tools that could quantify that with any precision.

And I found your post on Rome - excellent post! But I lost it in the process of attempting to comment on it - the format over there is a bit new to me. I'll find it again though.

Excellent. You are engaged in Historical Pattern Recognition. I'm not surprised that it got deleted from a major news website. It's usually an indication of when something you've said has hit a nerve.

And most definitely, you hit a nerve.

[-] 1 points by GypsyKing (8708) 13 years ago

Thanks for your impressions. I'm sure you're more sophisticated regarding technology that I am. I'm just basing my thoughts on what I have seen here on the forum. Perhaps people are expierenced enough with websites to discern the difference between us and them. I hope so anyway. I am still shifting to T.M. I think it's more condusive to rational thought.

[-] 2 points by ZenDogTroll (13032) from South Burlington, VT 13 years ago

more condusive to rational thought

That point is difficult to argue with. My problem is I find trolls so dayum entertaining . . .

[-] 1 points by GypsyKing (8708) 13 years ago

Than please show them to be the disintegrated, hate-filled, sociopaths that most of them are - to your hearts content! Given that this forum is here, and will apparently remain here, I guess that's filling a necessary (and granted, sometimes hysterically amusing) function.

Aside from the first point I made about the impression it might lead newcomers to, regarding our movement, I'm also afraid it will dicourage our own participation through a sheer sense of nausia, like that from being slimed all day by a bunch of cockroaches. But if you're up to it - have fun!!!

[-] 2 points by ZenDogTroll (13032) from South Burlington, VT 13 years ago

LoL!

In all fairness, they aren't the only ones here.

[-] 1 points by GypsyKing (8708) 13 years ago

No, but seemingly to me at any rate, there are more and more of them in proportion to our own people posting here. I think a lot of us have been gradually seeking out possibly more productive forums. Thanks for the informative dialogue here:)

[-] 1 points by ZenDogTroll (13032) from South Burlington, VT 13 years ago

No sweat. My pleasure.

So thin-skinned, so paranoid, so afraid to debate ideas.

No just tired of feeding economic baby food to the trolls who are too ignorant to digest it. Instead of embracing the lessons of history they choose to believe fantasy books like Atlas Shrugged or the failed economics ideas of Milton Friedman. How many times do we have to tell people to read history? Glenn Beck, now there's a rocket scientist for you.

[+] -5 points by GypsyKing (8708) 13 years ago

What ideas?

[-] -2 points by KirkVanHouten (123) 13 years ago

All of the arguments that the OWS skeptics have been making in this forum. I don't have time to summarize them all for you.

[+] -5 points by GypsyKing (8708) 13 years ago

OWS skeptics? Do you mean OWS people who are skeptics, or people who are skeptics of OWS? Man, you trolls need some time off - you're starting to simply blither!

[-] -1 points by KirkVanHouten (123) 13 years ago

Dismissing everyone who disagrees with you as trolls only shows that you don't have the courage to defend your arguments.

[+] -5 points by GypsyKing (8708) 13 years ago

There has been nothing out of you that could be considered an idea to dismiss. If you presented one then I would be able to dismiss it, being who you obviously are. But it's pretty easy to tell those who have ideas counter to ours from trolls. I respect them, and treat them with the dignity they deserve. You are not one of those people. You are a mere mouth for hire, and I can say right now that they aren't getting their monies worth.

[-] 0 points by KirkVanHouten (123) 13 years ago

If you had bothered to Google my contributions to this forum, you'd see that I've made extended substantive arguments in favor of my ideas and against yours. There are some thoughtful (though wrong) people who support OWS, but you, like most in the movement, are just an entitled crybaby.

[-] -1 points by MisguidedYouth2 (165) 13 years ago

I went there and now my computer has a virus. Stay away. I think multitude is an identity thief posing as an OWS supporter.

[-] -2 points by GypsyKing (8708) 13 years ago

You're not a very clever trool with a sitename like Misguidedyouth. I suggest you find something new and equally obvious.

[-] -2 points by Thatoneguy (75) 13 years ago

My computer's fine after visiting. I sense trollage.
