mircea_popescu: "A month later I get a text asking me to invest in her business." right.

mircea_popescu: i tell you, the expectation that people will do what you tell them is widely misplace.
mircea_popescu: "he is guilty, he reprsented his research as relevant!"
mircea_popescu: but i do appreciate the significant increase in discoursive vitriol.
mircea_popescu: thus every man and every interaction requiring something like a permission slip from... well..
mircea_popescu: they would like all men to be rapists and all interaction rape, at least "to some degree"

mircea_popescu: all they do is talk about what they did. that supposedly isn't talking about what they did, so necessarily they gotta be misrepresentin'.
mircea_popescu: as if there exists anyone in the verbiage side of the us who doesn't, as a principal actiuvity, misrepresent their work.
