Last week, I did a similar post to this one, using "Simulator" rather than
"Simulation", but I am withdrawing that award for a number of reasons [1],
and substituting this one. As with the other one, this is a nomination
and I welcome other nominations.

[1] One is that it focuses on a single post rather than a person,
and thus is not burdened with implications that there are other
simulations by the same person during the month. Other reasons
will be given in a subsequent post to this thread.

The post that is being nominated is the following:

Unfortunately, the post I've linked is not self-contained,
so I am replying to it here with some necessary additional information.

This singularly inappropriate rejoinder simulated a low-IQ misunderstanding
of the following one-line comparison of Oxyaena with Trump:

The point I was making here was how utterly ridiculous
Oxyaena's use of the word "comparing" was. The quote
below explains that further.

This silly comment simulated a low-IQ misuse of "calling me a ______",
inasmuch as my only mention of anything connected
to Nazis in the whole thread was at the beginning of the OP:

The Subject line is, of course, reminiscent of the
Rome-Berlin-Tokyo Axis and the "Axis of Evil" which
included North Korea and Iran. The Axis in the
Subject line could be called "The Axis of Pretending
That Truth Is Falsehood, And Falsehood Is Truth."

================ end of reply ====================

Back on the original thread, Oxyaena gave tortuous rationalizations
for why I supposedly associated her with Nazis, but they fell
well short of the criterion for "calling me a Nazi," hence
the evidence for that being a low-IQ simulation remains unscathed.

I don't think she has a low IQ. I think she is taking illegal drugs. She exhibits the extreme excitability, hyperactivity and poor concentration of someone taking Cocaine or Methaphetamines.

Falsehood,
And Falsehood Is Truth."

Bob Casanova in particular has had lots of fun acting the role.
The incident which sparked an orgy of it was initiated by
the following pretense by Oxyaena, repeatedly supported by Bob.

Oxyaena pretended that the following was true:

In short, another demonstration of your
dishonesty, blatant distorting of the facts, and outright slander.
I could sue you for libel, Peter, but unlike you I`m a decent person so
I won't.

https://groups.google.com/d/msg/talk.origins/Xub9hqEyM0A/l7gpBG1zCAAJ


The "demonstration" consisted exclusively of the following statement by
myself:

you *also* showed your ignorance about when life
could reasonably be expected to arise and evolve in our universe.

https://groups.google.com/d/msg/talk.origins/jI6KRtcqX30/0E97QgICBwAJ


That ignorance was exemplified by the following statement, which Oxyaena
kept pretending to be true:

Considering that the universe is only 13.8 billion years old, and the
universe only settled down enough for life to develop some 4.5 Ga, ala
when our Solar System formed, this makes sense.

https://groups.google.com/forum/#!original/talk.origins/jI6KRtcqX30/AFA8Mn3LBQAJ


While the opening clause is as close to the truth as any estimate of
the age of the universe, the rest is, to put it mildly, way lower
than all respectable estimates. I gave a rather lengthy explanation
of that here, where all of the above were analyzed:

Message-ID: <8174902f-492c-4d99...@googlegroups.com>

Jillery actually concurred with the bulk of my analysis, and
Oxyaena went along with that, inasmuch as jillery gave no
clue whatsoever that she was elaaborating on something I had
written. Perhaps she didn't even realize she was doing it.

But both of them stuck tenaciously to the claim
that I had libeled Oxyaena.


Since then, there has been a veritable orgy of pretending that
truth is falsehood, and falsehood truth, most of it going
back to Oxyaena's pretense described above on the "...bacterial
flagellum... thread, and most of the rest to be found in the
"More Dawkins" thread.


All of which goes to demonstrate what a hellhole talk.origins
could become if most participants were as vocally unscrupulous as this
"Axis."
Fortunately, only a very small minority are.

The nomination is put forward by Oxyaena in honor Peter "King of Deceit"
Nyikos, in recognition of his paranoid tendencies and irrational hatred
of a small section of the posters of talk.origins. Here is a LOW-IQ
simulation of him libeling three individuals, imagining that they were
all part of a conspiracy (or "axis", a la Godwin's Law) against him.

That's why I wrote "simulation". Oxyaena is simulating someone with
a very low IQ -- whether intentionally or unintentionally, I do not know.

> I think she is taking illegal drugs. She exhibits the extreme excitability, hyperactivity and poor concentration of someone taking Cocaine or Methaphetamines.

This is possible, but it is also possible that Oxyaena is subject
to extreme mood swings typical of certain forms of bipolar disorder.
The old term for bipolar disorder is "manic-depressive psychosis,"
but I think nowadays it is not classed as a psychosis.

Here is something Oxyaena wrote at one point last week:

I *hate* these flame wars, and
I WANT THEM TO FUCKING STOP. STOP. STOP. Just fucking STOP.
I'd get more enjoyment out of burning myself alive than I would
from you flaming me.

Up to that last sentence she may have been sincerely expressing her momentary
feelings, but that last sentence inadvertently gave her long-term
game away: as you saw on a thread where Oxyaena attacked both of us
AFTER she posted this, the enjoyment she gets out of flaming people
evidently far exceeds the discomfort of being flamed by them.

And so, her comment about wanting the flamewars to stop translates
simply into her wanting me to stop exposing her libels, her cowardice,
her illogic, and her (possibly unintentional) low-IQ simulations.

Peter Nyikos

PS The post by Oxyaena from which I took that quote does seem to suggest
a person out of control in the midst of a drug binge. I'll let
you judge for yourself how little or how much out of touch with
reality Oxyaena seems to be in it:

Wrong, Bob. I almost *never* have such an open-and-shut case for
the two of you pretending that truth is falsehood, and falsehood
truth. Oxyaena reposted the open-and-shut case against herself below,
and now you've done some of my work for my case against you.

More about that if you disagree with what I wrote just now.
For now, I will show how Oxyaena actually *strengthened* my open-and-shut
case against her.
Oxyaena is using "paranoid" in the standard way scoundrels like the three
individuals use it: as a talisman to ward off legitimate criticism.
Back when she went by a different moniker beginning with "Thri" and ending in
"odon," Oxyaena voluminously demonstrated irrational hatred towards me which
I did not reciprocate

> > Here is a LOW-IQ
> >simulation of him libeling three individuals,

The above is, LITERALLY, a simulation, because I am documenting nothing
but the truth about Oxyaena; and I can easily document
the truth of what I said about you, Bob, and about Jillery too.

And so, Oxyaena is simulating a belief that these documented truths
are libels. IOW, pretending that truth is falsehood, and falsehood truth.


> > imagining that they were
> >all part of a conspiracy (or "axis", a la Godwin's Law) against him.

Oxyaena is not only inept at reading my mind here: she is actually
saying something that I refuted in the following post about
the talisman "conspiracy" that Oxyaena is using to ward off the
truth about herself:

You had been telling Vtandofsky what your IMPRESSION was. He was saying,
in effect:

So that's your impression -- so what?

People make far less obvious blunders about you than the one you made just now,
and you very competently nail them for the kind of illogic you have displayed.
I know you don't have a low IQ -- but you sure simulated having one.

Obviously you know next to nothing about *actual* cognitive science.
What you think "simulates" a low IQ is not an actual simulation of
people with low IQs, what instead would be better described with:

a) being literal-minded

b) tired of dealing with your word games

c) tired of your fucking bullshit

d) sick of your ableist crap

"evidently" is based on the mountain of hate you've leveled my
way (and, to a lesser extent, viandofsky's way) not just here
but also in sci.bio.paleontology AFTER you posted the above.


You even took to telling Harshman falsehoods about me behind my back
in a thread you set up in s.b.p.

You are a glutton for punishment. Do you imagine that people
are supposed to roll over and play dead when you tell one falsehood
after another about them?


>
> Can you stop baselessly speculating about me? You know nothing about me,


As your loyal defender Mark Isaak put it, actions speak louder than words.
Your actions in deciding a number of years ago to mercilessly attack
me for unknown reasons, and your numerous libels about me this past year,
and you inept handling of so many scientific issues, tell an awful lot
about you.


> and here you continue your years-long campaign of shitting all over me.

I only started to retaliate in earnest after a year of you puking all
over me, and even after that, you puked all over me far more than I
denounced you for dishonestly doing it. [This denouncing is what you
call "shitting".]

Since libels were counted as "justifiable aggravation." IOW, in
The World According to Oxyaena, Formerly Banned by DIG
when you posted utter bilge under a different moniker.

Correction: you've been gleefully and trollingly taking potshots at the two
of us in other threads. You can dish it out, but you can't take it.

You are so bad at taking it, you are projecting your trollhood onto us.

This will be my last 'contribution' to this thread, since I don't want to get caught up in the irony of contributing to the waste of bandwidth -

Jillery and I were in an exchange regarding an issue salient to the purpose of this news group.

These two threads are total garbage: Not only completely off topic but created with the purpose of _attempting_ to humiliate another member of the group.

At least if these threads were rooted in threads germane to T.O, you might have some justification in claiming those precursors were worthy of some some sort of dubious distinction.

But the precursor to these two threads was itself an off-topic rant started by you that contained nothing but attacks on other members of the group.

The fact that you've now posted three off-topic threads that are obvious attempts to sooth your damaged ego really doesn't paint you in a very positive light.

So, no, I don't think differently of these two threads. They're a complete waste of bandwidth, and if I were a moderator, they would be ferme.

Really? I challenged you to document the truth of what you said about
me at the time you first posted it. As of this posting, you haven't
even replied to my challenge, nevermind documented any truth to your
self-serving Big Lie. And it's almost certain that you never will,
because you lack the personal integrity and honesty to do so. That's
another characteristic you share with your strange bedfellows.

More generally, what you posted is exactly the kind of trivial
pedantic molehill on which you build your Big Lies. Even if you
showed what you claim is an actual lie, a falsehood with intent to
deceive, it doesn't even rise to the level of Truth. It is at most a
difference of opinion on what was the most likely case in the past,
for which the most that can be shown is the best inference based on
current evidence, about which people in good faith can reasonably
disagree.

But NOTA stops you from posting and re-posting your Big Lies into
threads and topics they have nothing to do with, without even once
backing them up. That's how you continue to ejaculate your repetitive
irrelevant spew from your puckered sphincter.

In your haste to post yet another Big Lie, you conveniently forgot to
identify what you think is my blunder. For someone who proves time
and again your inability to read minds, you're very confident in your
interpretation of V's vague challenge. And since it wasn't you who
posted it, but instead was posted by someone who delights in being
deliberately vague, my impression is you're just whistling in the
dark.

This is exactly the kind of trivial pedantic molehill on which you
build your Big Lies. Even if you showed what you claim is an actual
lie, a falsehood with intent to deceive, it doesn't even rise to the
level of Truth. Your version is at most an interpretation of a vague
challenge, and not even the most likely interpretation. My impression
is V isn't capable of the nuanced meaning you describe, but instead
posted his two word phrase as a mindless retort because he had nothing
intelligent to say.

But that won't stop you from posting and re-posting your Big Lie into
threads and topics it has nothing to do with, without even once
backing it up. That's how you continue to ejaculate your repetitive
irrelevant spew from your puckered sphincter.

There is another issue, too. Both Oxyaena and jillery show very poor reading comprehension, as you just proved above. When I talk about someone else, they
mistake it for comments about myself. and call it "projection."

You might want to review past Chez Watts, if only to get a better
sense of what qualifies. Although you nomination certainly is a
head-scratcher, my impression is it's too long to develop the
necessary snap. It's like the difference between a shaggy-dog story
and a pun.

Also, Nyikos the peter has been posting that kind of repetitive spew
for a long time now, so it almost never rates a second glance.

Of course, I could be wrong.

Your "open-and-shut case" is the product of your
imagination, based apparently on misinterpretations of posts
filtered through the paranoia you exhibit when contradicted
and/or challenged, and your accusations, implicit *and*
explicit, of "collusion" among those who contradict and/or
challenge your assertions. Keep that in mind. Also keep in
mind that I disagreed several times with the
characterization of your posts as either "libel" or
"slander", and even had a discussion about it.
