    It's because you're one of the most brazen and despicable hypocrites ever. It's hard to describe what a ridiculous joke you are. You lecture everyone on failing to do enough -- about doing nothing -- even though you are the very embodiment of do-nothingness that can be imagined.

    Wow. Quite a tirade coming from a man that won't even follow his own elucidations and deductions to their ultimate conclusion. As you often like to point out to others... you don't know my life. You don't know what I have or have not done and/or attempted to do. You have branded me a hypocrite and you know nothing about me. It doesn't matter, think what you will. I don't think you are a hypocrite. I was just mistaken about you.

    You beat your chest like some sort of rabid revolutionary but it's all confined to comments you leave here.

    You have been having me followed? Advocating for direct action is beating one's chest? You just watched a few chest beaters be overrun. You are documenting it well enough.

    I didn't see you at any of the protests in Denver or here.

    That's because I wasn't there and you more than likely wouldn't have seen me even if I was.

    I've repeatedly invited you to post whatever protests and events you're organizing -- and promised I would do what I could to promote them -- and you never answer, because you do nothing, while attacking everyone who does things for not doing enough.

    I remember one such "invitation" but you will forgive me if I did not take it seriously given the level of snark and ridicule found in it.

    You're a walking joke and everyone sees it but you. -- GlennGreenwald

    Successfully hurtful, but I am not sure that "everyone" would agree that what I have to say makes me a "walking joke."
