Default Jonathan Ball, nomination for Order of the Holey Sockpuppet ( Is Benfez Jonathan Ball?)

Hello, k00kologists -- may I direct your attention to the following
crossposted newsgroups, where you will see for yourselves a rather sad
state of affairs. :-( ...To wit, a Usenet self-mutilation of sorts:
k00ky posters inventing sockpuppet personas so they can beat
themselves up with their other sockpuppet personas. Among other
things.

I think you may find some fresh meat here -- (pun intended, hee hee
hee...) Google Jonathan OR Jon Ball for starters...

The Gonad, or Jonathan Ball, or Benfez, or any of probably
more than a dozen other characters, is being played by the
most dishonest of "ARAs". He has several tasks to work on,
one of which is to portray himself (very poorly) as an "AR"
opponent in order to make "AR" opponents appear to be
dishonest, childish, stupid, and completely inconsiderate of
humans and other animals. One of his main tasks is to prevent
people from appreciating the fact that raising animals for food
provides them with life..."ARAs" have for too long enjoyed
promoting the idea that the animals are simply "killed", and that's
the way they want it to remain.

Apart from his laughable attempts to invent sock
puppets, only to beat up on them and then claim a
hollow victory, Jonathan often changes his name
in an effort to hide his thoughts and behaviour from
his very young son who might one day look through
Google archives when he grows up. When warned
that his son will one day get to know his true father,
he responded, yet again under a different name;
;

"Predictions:

1. There will be no Google as we know it.
2. I will have gone through a few dozen e-mail
addresses by then. There are other people
with my name who post to usenet.
3. It will never occur to him to look to see if I
ever posted to Usenet. He won't care."

It's clear that he wants to conceal his true self from
his own son, yet over the years he has hypocritically
attacked Karen Winter for concealing her true self
from her son, and claims that he is morally obligated
to convey her posts to him, thereby revealing her true
character;

"This much is clear: you are terribly afraid of your
son's reaction if he sees your words. It is YOUR
words you don't want your son to see, not anything
I might say about them."
Jonathan Ball http://tinyurl.com/36h6l

"You are withholding important information from
your son. That is immoral. It is not immoral for
me to convey what I know to your son."
Jonathan Ball http://tinyurl.com/2ygbn

Jonathan is one screwed up little hypocrite who
1) can't defeat real opponents
2) uses his opponent's identities to forge damaging
posts to undermine them
3) uses multiple names and email addresses to hide
his true self from his son while attacking others
who try to conceal their posts from their son.

He's completely and utterly unethical.

That's interesting. So the Gonad is ashamed--not
proud--of his childish, dishonest, inconsiderate, stupid
self. Hmmm....I had thought he was proud of it because
his father was that way before him, and taught him to
be that way as he will teach his own son to be that way.
Actually, I still believe that's the way it is, and the Gonad
is lying as always when he pretends not to be proud of
his disgusting behavior....in fact I believe there is some
chance he gets paid something by "ARAs" for the
characters that he plays.

We certainly agree on that completely. Humorous
in a pathetic sort of way that the most unethical scum
in the ngs, feels that he is a great authority on ethical
behavior and people should respect that authority. LOL!

Similarly, dh_ld claims great authority on the metaphysical/spiritual
aspects of domestic animals' well-being and "experience" to make nonsensical
claims about the "benefits" of domestic animals being abused by farming
techniques while expecting people should respect his propaganda, even though
he can provide NO support for his claims when challenged!

Explain why a breeder cow living in open pasture, doesn't
benefit more than a battery hen.

Explain just how you measure, in an objective sense, any "benefit" that
you claim.

Some benefits the cow's environment has over that of the hen:

1. fresh air
2. freedom of greater body motion
3. freedom to wander and change location
4. experience of raising young
5. greater visual experiences
6. longer life
7. opportunity to enjoy satisfaction of more desires

Can you think of any more? No, you can't. In fact, your job now
will be to show why those benefits are not benefits.

Ha ha ha ha ha! Bossy the cow doesn't look back as she's about to be
slaughtered and think, "Well, at least I got to give birth to some
calves, so life wasn't so bad."

You stupid ****, ****wit.

<yawn> None of those matter if the cow never exists in the first place.

"getting to experience life" is not a benefit at all.
