Rubber-necking some audacious fools in a boiler room in Loudon
Sunday, March 9th, 2008I gather that Larouchies are sourering and re-scourering this blog of mine for various bits of Intelligence, clues of various items into the workings of their enemies, and contrived controversies of a supposed “Get Larouche Task Force”. What else do I make of this comment, on this long past post of mine:
I do believe that Mr. Benton is correct in his statements against Dennis King. The materials in question do seem to originate from him and I honestly believe that his meal ticket does not have any more punches left for him to use. Dennis you should be ashamed and I don’t thing you should be bringing Erika Duggan in to this. Own up and deal with it!
Understand, the edict has been passed down to the LYM to get off the Internet — the explicit finale of what was implicit in the demagouging of various real and imagined concerns over the Internet. Without ever having read “The Devil in Your Laptop” (I would need a physical copy. For reasons clear to you if you’ve followed this, they don’t leave around physical copies of these things anymore. Which makes them an Internet-hating cult that relies on the Internet), I can tell you that it concerns itself with how the British Empire, together with International Jewish Banking interests, have conspired to brainwash the Youth through the Internet, video games, and computer technology.
Thus, “Rubber necking” Larouchies online means that you are “rubber necking” their central committee. Absurd as that sounds.
But this comment is rather audacious — it takes even more galls to get to this line than the lines proferred in the arguments in the “Comments” fight on the wikipedia entry on Kenneth Kronberg. Nick Benton’s phrase does not literally mean what our Larouchian suggests it means, that this “originated with Dennis King”. Benton’s gripe concerns matters of presentation — King originally presented this with a more bombastic headline than was strictly necessary. His original problem was in imagining a “Baby Boomer Purge”. This is a tricky term, because, strictly speaking, Larouche would have preferred Ken Kronberg remain ALIVE. Demoralized and at the breaking point, but a useful scape-goat to the cult’s financial and recruiting troubles, as well always present though likely just out of reach legal problems, which is a better fit then their current square-block in a round hole spot of him as Martyr to the Cause. Dennis King has stylistically changed some things, not least of which the address to his website.
Beyond that, Nick Benton can speak for himself, and has. But at the end of the day, dear larouchie, you must understand that he regards Larouche as even more irrelevant and worthy of less time and space than King does, which is roughly where the “Meal Ticket” line comes in. If the “last punch” of the ticket is being pushed, you realize that is a result of the decline and dwindle of your cult more so than anything else. An ex-member of a cult can decide to what degree to linger over their unpleasant past.
Which brings us back to THIS. Yes. That. An item which ORIGINATED IN THE BOILER ROOM IN LOUDON. Not an order to suicide, but — as the Larouche media mill pumped out in demagouging that tragic story of those two wicked parents who thought it funny to create a fictional boyfriend for their 13 year old daughter’s former friend, only to have him dump her and suggest she kill herself — words have meaning, emotions have meaning…
If you desire me to further decrease my distance to King in that daily memo, I could go ahead and cut and paste this item and post it here? And here’s Nick Benton’s original story for you! What the hey. It predates King’s posting of the document, King not being the official or only purveyor of meaning of the document — Benton’s point — nor originator of said — Larouchie commenter’s stupid bluff. I do not, however, remember whether it was buoyed about on FACTNet before its printing.
