No, Voltimand, you placed my reasoning against socialism as somehow still inside the fold, and based on “envy and resentment.” Go back and read what you wrote.

“Fred, I think you haven’t quite divested yourself of the massive amount of self-deception socialists dress themselves in.”

You just toss something like this out there, and I have no idea as to why you say that about me. Your denial rings hollow and you have the nerve to be flip when I call your attention to it. I can assure you that if the roles were reversed you would not stand for it. But I would never go to that level anyway, so it’s a moot point.

Point out to me how I am currently a cryptic socialist. Put up, or stop the cryptic sniping. And using Girard as a template to cram down on me, however elegant you think you are being, is still an ad hominem attack.

Grow up.
