The apocheir critic

[jbor]

Fair enough, too, but mud sticks, even when it's as slimy and disreputable
as millison-mud. And maus lumping me in the same boat as millison was and is
almost as gross an insult as all the ("uses the rhetoric of")
Holocaust-denial, pedophilia, neo-Nazism stuff that millison has spewed out
over the years. I can certainly ignore "sybil" and the two trolls, and
*your* snipes too, and would love to be able to engage with Thomas's
excellent stuff on the first bit of V. But I can see by his upcoming post
that hypocrite maus's *only* real purpose and context in ever corresponding
to the list is injecting venom and trading personal insults as well, which,
in my book, is attention-seeking behaviour at its most juvenile.

I actually thought that what Ken McVay had to say was quite interesting,
relevant and confirming. Thanks to whoever it was who suggested contacting
him on behalf of the list.
