FPB FTW! Er...
I almost hesitate to draw attention to this, as
fpb must be
dreadfully chafed already, but this time I think he's really pushing for the stars. He's managed to offend
dreamer_marie, a woman who is known for her even temper, who is (well, was) one of his friends, and who has defended him in the past.
fpb would appear to have made disparaging comments about the Netherlands in the past, but things really get kicked off when he titles a post about a controversy surrounding the Dutch MP, Ayaan Hirsi Ali, with a half-serious, "
It is sometimes hard to believe in God when certain nations are never visited by plague and fire."
dreamer_marie politely requests that he rephrase the sentence, objecting to the idea of directing such maliciousness toward an entire country for something that one segment of government has done, and he replies,
"Rephrase the decision to defame and expel Ayaan Hirsi Ali and I shall rephrase my post." From there, we are off!
fpb posts a
response specific to
dreamer_marie, in which he comes up with a new reason to generalize hatred for policies to hatred for an entire populous: legalized euthanasia! "
If you don't want to be despised, don't be despicable," he advises Marie. In the comments, he
adds,
Too much time has been spent being polite to the Dutch and their fellow mass murderers in Belgium, Norway, Oregon, and soon Spain. To be polite to people who have deliberately committed themselves to the abomination of systematized murder is to do them a disfavour: to preserve them in the delusion that what they are doing is nothing special, that they have not crossed the line between selfishness and atrocity, that what they do is something that can be discussed in a light and polite tone, like a change in accounting practice or administrative law. It is not: it is mass murder.
I hear they also kick puppies and dine nightly upon sauteed baby flesh! Damn the Dutch!
In our third
post,
fpb asks whether he should have been polite to someone who, being a Dutchwoman, might someday have her parents killed. (look towards the bottom)
dreamer_marie shits a brick and reports him for
libel and hatespeech.
fpb finishes off with a gentle squeeze and a bit of a
rant.
Oooh...spooge.
ETA: I hear this already made
wank_report, and I flubbed in posting this the first time (posted it to F_W, wtf?). I apologise ahead of time for any incompetence--I'm a complete neophyte at JF.
