hey, college boy.. no basic English classes at your University?
being enrolled in a school is not a qualifier as being a smart person.
or a mature person.
being gay, especially radically gay, is not a license to out anyone, nor does it entitle you any more than anyone else to use insulting language to belittle others.

in article after article, you prove beyond a doubt that the two aspects of self you most push forward are the ones you most suck at.
there's a simple cure for this-- honest self introspection, which should naturally yield enough respect for others to set you on the road to true freedom.
but until you take those critical first steps you'll continue to be trapped in a very closed mind with not many toys in there to play with.

You got me I don't have that good English skills..... that is why I am in science where it focuses more on your ability to use critical thinking skills as opposed to the humanities where you need language skills.

It is so humorous that you call me out as some sort of fool when you are really the true fool in this situation. Your comment implies I don't have honest self introspection. Now I am going to break kayfabe here which I try not to do, but we may not actually disagree on that much.

When I write some of these articles I am obviously engaging in a satire of liberal buzz feed like articles. All the people I expose except Major Trite seem to be in on the joke. I am a leftist person, but I disagree with the approach to homosexuality by most leftist organisations and believe it to actually be homophobic in many way. I am even open though not totally have bought into arguments that Donald Trump is more gay friendly than Hillary Clinton.

I am a queer atheist college student studying Computer Science, Math, and Business. I have never been really given anything it has always been through hardwork. I don't by into the idea that we need to be protected from bigotry and that safe spaces are a good idea. I live in a society that i view just wants to promote reactionary views on both sides instead of investigating the truth.

My newspaper I write is both a satire of the opposing and a realization of my ideals. I read Gnilraps article and I think to my self that his article is wrong now let me do a little research to confirm he is wrong okay well now that I have confirmed and contradicted my previous information lets publish and dramatize it.

I hope we can come to an understanding in the future and I hope we can continue a dialogue.

"Now I am going to break kayfabe here"
I'm not going to agree or disagree, approve or disapprove of you as a person, inasmuch as you've shared much beyond my critical remarks.

You've developed a character here in game who is abrasive and confrontational. Your writing, aside from skills less than at middle school level, attacks and digs at your chosen opposition, and lacks many definitive characteristics of satire.
This is what you present, who you are here in game, and as one who has been on the pointy end of your poison pen I will not be poked without pushing back.

You don't have to rub it in that my writing skills are not that great, but middle school level is a bit of an exaggeration to be honest.

You are a grump soul that can't have fun. I don't know if you are butt hurt that you can't figure out the joke or if you are so butt hurt that you can't have fun. IT IS A GAME AFTER ALL.

I will continue to troll you because you are easy to troll.

No, middle school level is appropriate. Your writing is simplistic. Your grasp of sentence punctuation and grammar is weak.

Please take my advice in the spirit of good intentions. I like to think I'm smart too. The last time I was tested I had an IQ of 148 (Yes, IQ is a flawed test etc...). That doesn't make me qualified to rain on other people's parade and make an argument from authority on anything. Intelligent people have a tendency to over analyse situations and have difficulty backing themselves. That's because you know what you don't know, and you know enough to know you don't (can't!) know everything. Know what I mean?

As far as writing goes, you need to learn. Many years ago I completed an Engineeing degree under the same assumptions you seek to have. It's all technical and calculations. I don't have to write anything, etc. Let me say this plainly. You are dead wrong. Technical people work in teams, and interface with non-technical people all the time. You need to be able to persuade other people of the merits of your design/calculation/thingamajig/idea. If you can't, your idea is probably not going to be selected. How do you persuade? By writing, mostly. Language skills are the key to everything, professionally. Embrace them.

Making an attack on Gnilraps because you're a undergrad student with a minor in business? Get real. Maths isn't difficult - eRepublik needs high school level at best. How do you know he hasn't run his own RL business for thirty years? Yet you haven't even graduated yet! Stop judging other people prematurely and self-projecting your own insecurities.

Fair points, but I would disagree that I write at a middle school level unless your standards for middle school are a bit higher. You do make the some fallacies involving my attitude towards writing: Just because I acknowledge my writing skills are poor does not mean that I don't and haven't tried to get better at writing; I am delusional in thinking that writing has no value to the parts of my degree that are in Science and Math.

I will just have you know that I just quit my job, because I am going into business with an investor who wants to get into the smart technology market and has brought me on as his main programmer. That required a good amount of negotiation and language skills.

On the Gnilraps issue there is a difference between real life experience/ good at "maths" and what I am talking about. You can do calculations and understand arithmetic/algebra but that does not mean you have incite into mathematical concepts. You may have run a business and have insights into human behavior, but that does not mean you have an understanding of economics. Some ideas are counter intuitive and usually take a mind trained in the discipline of thinking that way about a problem. Gnilraps did not display an understanding of economics so I simply pointed it out. Any person who has an understanding in these things will probably agree that I applied good practices in creating the economical argument. You can read my article to see the merits for yourself.

I am disappointed in you Ilene Dover for feeding this BS that I make arguments from authority. I have always made it a point that people should make arguments based on the merits. I only reference my undergrad just as proof that I have been exposed to these ideas.

American newspapers are written at eighth grade level-- pandering to the lowest common intellect denominator.
that's a set standard.
if you can't write as well as what you find in your morning newspaper, your skills are below that standard.

beyond this, though, your demonstrated arrogance and willful ignorance are beyond my tolerance capabilities.
be who you are, and be how you are, and more power to ya. someday this refusal to advance yourself will come to bite you in the ass. and you're welcome to that, too.
