Who Is IOZ? is really hitting the big-time. We now find ourselves linked by a blogger who is definitely not interested in anal sex, Goldstein!. Hot.
I want to respond, but I have no idea what any of it means. Consider:
But when truths appealing to shared philosophical assumptions have been eradicated (it is not a stretch to say that, for some, this was the primary goal of an ongoing project to deconstruct Enlightenment thinking), and consensus becomes the new ground for determining meaning, it is not surprising that “truthiness” gains currency, and the will to (rhetorical) power takes to place of observed or empirically “provable” truths.Put down the scissors and the absinthe, Tristan Tzara. I've read more coherent instructions on a pack of chopsticks.
Manufactured consent.

There's one question I understand, though. So never let it be said that I ignore my detractors. (Hell, I'm just happy to finally have my own detractor!):
Is there nothing unsavory for which these twits won’t act as intellectual apologists?No.

I am angry at you for making me read that guy. His attempted facetiousness is stylistically indistinguishable from his would-be themes. He reads like a drunk or a high functioning schizophrenic.
It hurts.
IOZ, I know this is gonna hurt, but this bozo is a self-identified libertarian.
Oh, I know. How sharper than a serpent's tooth it is to have a thankless child!
I'm not interested in anal sex. But then again, you're not really my type of blogger, so links were always unlikely.
Oh, IOZ, are you just hoping for one of Jeffro's infamous cockslappings?
And just for fun, here's more signs that make more sense than Goldstein.
Aaron, that's the gayest thing I've ever seen. I am, as George W. Bush said of Gordon Brown, soooo hard and resolved.
Chinglish!

Errr..... Was he being facetious? It's hard to tell. He does a helluva good Lyndon LaRouche, though. But I can never tell if LL is joking, either.

Well, having looked at the site, I guess it isn't much like Lyndon LaRouche after all. Reminds me more of a production from a yahoo named Dan Riehl, which is, ahem, an entertainment of a sort....

Dude,
He called you a progressive. How that must chafe.

ioz is to goldstein what heathens are to christians, what goyim are to jews, what mongrels are to purebloods, what... oh fuck all. when will i learn to give up trying to articulate responses to the insensible?
haha...
there's a lesson here somewhere, there is.
meta meta.
a thousand balkans shall bloom.
brothers, sisters, come together! how will we ever reach a consensus? how will the truth ever shine through?
we're all nuts. thankfully.
Congratulations, IOZ! You've found the blog equivalent of Manos: The Hands of Fate.
Beyond my imagination!
