HP Sauce. posted by Richard Seymour
From Charlotte Street :Curiously, I once considered adding to my notes on rhetoric the entry “Always Psychologise!: If your opponent criticises you more than once, he is evidently obsessed/ fixated by you, you are being stalked by him etc, his objections are to be reread as ‘symptoms’ of his disorder etc…”.
Purely by coincidence, this was in a post about Norman Geras accusing the Street of being fixated with him.
Now, in another astounding coincidence, I discover that Harry's Place has accused Dead Men Left of being fixated with it. Definitely an anal fixation this time, then.
By the way, please do consult the HP link. In it, you will find many comments from sub-literate pro-war amoebas who take the time and trouble to study and analyse us far left bloggers with the curiosity of anthropologist (but none of the rigour). There is also a link to a rather silly blogger who I was once over-generous about, and who now demands that I include him in my half-mocking 'Enemies List', and who in the linked post expends impressive fury and venom explaining his hatred for the SWP, Respect and all things Galloway. He cunningly undermines these three menacing entities with the use of an uncomprehending article in that notorious bastion of integrity and honesty, the Weekly Worker. I even attract yet another prat-fall of an insult from some people calling themselves SIAW. I don't know why they don't like me. And then there's Harry who once reacted to a little teasing by announcing that: "You in particular can shove your fist right up your filthy arse!" I can, but how does Harry know this? Has he been watching me in the wee small hours? Is he stalking me? Could it be some wierd and fetishistic fixation he has with me? Police? Hello...?
