The Magic Mirror
It is not the message I hate, it is the humiliating put-down, the condescending sneer, the patronizing tone.

...for all the light-hearted misdirection, there is a solid core of fascism, racism, psychosis and misogyny here which will not be denied, and which occasionally erupts into a display of good old-fashioned hatred.
.
His foul stench is even rejected by those horsemen he wishes to follow, who embarassed, make every attempt to avoid him. For the partisans among us, he is a godsend, because he immediately discredits whichever side he picks, and invariably he always picks the Right side.
.
Fortunately, he posts frequently and ineptly on scientific subjects, which allows the rest of us to properly evaluate him and characterize him as the Johannes Lite he actually is.
.
The quintessential high school master debater, always there, always right, always prepared, always around, always talking to himself. He prowls through the boards like a patrolling reef shark, a belligerent barracuda, constantly on the lookout for any deviation from orthodoxy, always ready to crush any dissent, demolish any deviation from political correctness, expose any weakness or devour any apostasy, either perceived, defined or imagined.
The message you hate delivered with
humiliating put downs and a sneer,
Will not desist for you I fear.
Until you, your words, learn to restrain
Hate and sneers there will remain.
I may rest here on the wall,
but of your faults I see all.
A friend I can be if you choose,
but closely at me you must observe.
