As a christian.

He didn't do any of those things. He made it so folks smarter than you could actually research them.

Guy killed himself because Feds were out to get him for exposing massive corruption in Academia. I'm surprised Christians aren't more engaged in his story.

Alan Sokal already did that 20 years earlier.

Peter Boghossian, Helen Pluckrose, and James Lindsay continued the tradition. They are all still alive.

Alan Sokal is also still alive.

Man, you really struggle with this formulating a comprehensive thought thing. Spit it out, Porky.

He's definitely in a bad place then, you aren't allowed to do that first part.

[magnetaress]

Are you even so sure he killed himself?


Anyway. He exposed lies. Butt I can't tell you why or what his real ends where. What are you trying to say? He was a real hero who sacrificed his life for me?

I'm not so sure. He killed himself because of a crucial flaw in his own understanding of the world. He thought he could be a hero and win against the evil. Perhaps by himself. Why though? Did he want fame? Did he want to go to G-d and tell G-d look how good he was? Did he want to avenge and vindicate a fallen comrad.

All rolling stones says he was a victim and mental illness is bad and blames the system. It doesn't even say that what he did was actually right. Probably because of liability.

No. Similar reveal as to what happened to Edward Snowden. Elites don't want regular folks such as you to understand things. This is as old as time. You are acting as a post-reformation Christian that the information you have was always accessible to the rank and file. It wasn't.

My claim is Aaron didn't sacrifice himself in a Jesus-like way, rather he sacrificed himself for his ideal of 'Information wants to be Free' which is actually most likely a secular value, not sure. We are in the age of information and use that information he exposed, free access to Academic papers which were previously costly to obtain.

Whether that is good or not I don't know other than some guy I will never meet performed actions that made me smarter by giving me access to information elites historically kept to themselves.

My claim is these humans weren't suicidal they were put in a suicidal environment so a story could be told about their demise that incriminated them rather than exonerated them.

Remind you of anyone?

I already have lifetime access to Jstor for free though. I'm the village idiot who bamboozled his way through the Mensa tests by hook or by crook, for we possess the assistance of courageous pride and humble crook alike.

Mr. Trump is hardly what I would call a "genius" or a great liberator of information. (Which, again, I'm finishing a thought for you on.....)
