The Revenge of Abbeysbooks

{cross-posted from FSZ}

This is a cross-post from MyLeftWing. Basically AbbeysBooks warned a UGOG a few years back to disassociate himself from those operatives. MaryScott O'Connor made an appearance. She basically showed how clueless she is, that she is easily manipulated by those fake lefties sending her cash or otherwise kissing her mental illness booboos.

By the way, MSOC has deleted a diary in which she said she'd never accept money from political candidates. My theory on her is that she is making money off of her website. Whether she is a chump getting bird feed from the likes of pro-military whench Curmudgette or from prolific KosKop, KarmaFish and the few other irrelevant writers such as cleverguy82 and devilishadvocate, she has pretty much sealed her fate as being a Markos Alberto Moulitsas Zuniga guarddog. She banned Francis Holland. Scum like Mudge and fishstench are the worst of KosKops. They run someone's reputation into the ground, then they act all innocent saying they didn't want anyone banned.

More after the break. Get yourself a soda. This is gonna be a good one. {also, make sure to check out Francis' Truth About Kos website where yours truly shows once again how guerilla blogging is really done, unlike this fake shit pumped out by MattyJack and the other looooosers.}

:: ::

So MattyJack is acting out a fight with fellow operative Laurel S, who only Lord Byron believes is a female, and only because he has some serious issues with vaginas. [/digression]

It's this simple. I kicked KarmaFish's butt in debate. I troll busted his sorry 15,000 post ass in broad daylight. He admitted to going to MyLeftWingNut to "fight" with Francis Holland. Cue up what a fool believes by the Doobies.

And here we have MattyJack trying to rewrite history. He takes down the UGOG files, he puts them back up. He repeats the cycle. I, on the otherhand, never waver from outing cointelpro-like scum on the internet. MattyJack was talking trash about how many lurkers this place was getting. Uhm, it was because of me. I made a diary at DailyKos sticking up for Dave and Francis. There were a quick 200 of the cheesiest fake lefty responses one could imagine. In my defense, I always knew Daily Kos sucked. You chumps with your soap blox and Kos-centric dribble ought to be embarrassed.

Anyway, Francis' blog got a lot of new readers. I'm sure this place did too. But before MattyJack gets too excited, the truth is out there that he had zero to do with the outing of the UGOGs. The truth is out there that this guy is in all probability some kind of plant. Hey, when the #2 or three poster is Curmudgette her smelly self, you know this place is ultimately a joke.

Without further ado....

The Revenge of AbbeysBooks

Revenge is sweet. I hope MSOC doesn't mind a bit of "I told you so" from the lovely and talented Abbeysbooks.

Here's the link {below Dr. Evil} where Abbeysbooks explained in 2007 how she got run off of DailyKos for no good reason. Yeah, at this point we all know that the DailyKos sucks and is full of rightwing Democrats, middle of the road, selfish haters. But for those who ignore the UGOG files, you do so at your own peril. They prove how the internet is rigged. The two most arguably successful, rightwing, cash cows masquerading as progressives have been DKos and the Democratic Underground, and now we have the proof due to David Weintraub's trollbusting that they have been rigged! Sure that link is to an FSZ domain. Don't let that fool you. Dave got banned from FSZ after exposing the UGOGs, and this link was taken down by Jack for a chunk of time, when he claimed that FingerFlaw, Bottles/condoleaser, and Michael Bouldin are regular guys. Yeah, and Manny is just being Manny? Er, maybe a bad example. But you know what I friggen mean.

Abbeysbooks' Revenge



Sometimes, It Feels Good to Respond to Douchebaggery

Abbeysbooks:
All I could do was laugh and laugh as I imagined blue vertigo, majorflaw,dadanation, andgarden, truth of angels, DMiller and all the rest of that cabal who stalk you to troll rate and get you banned


MSOC:
dadanation is a great friend of mine. NOT at ALL one of the haters. Don't know where you got the opposite idea, but just to clarify -- SO not the case.


Abbeysbooks to Shriver:
It would be advisable for you to stay away from that group of trolls or you will sink with them. Many others are now on to them. And waiting.


Check out the UGOG files. Dadanation shows up in the first week or two.

FingerFlaw is the one who definitely needs to be investigated. He has acted precisely how one would expect a cointelpro agent to act like if they were dominating major forums. Fifth column.

Meet the real David Weintraub!

Abbeysbooks' Revenge Fleshed Out

I am trying to piece together her story. She may have made a few politically incorrect statements on rare occasions, but that is no excuse for how she was selected for banishment by Michael Fingerit. It is not outlandish to think that Fingerit {MajorFlaw} is the proverbial paid fake, perhaps even some form of modern day cointelpro. If he wants to sue me for libel, he can go right ahead. We'll see how the jurors feel about the UGOG files. It'd be one thing if he was an unemployed crack head living off of a trust fust. This guy is an attorney and political consultant. In fact, the Daily Kos is dominated by such folks.

It's getting late here. I have already posted The Revenge of Abbeysbooks at MyLeftWing and FSZ. That showed how Abbeysbooks had confronted Dadanation {Michael Shriver} as being a KosKop at MLW. It showed how Maryscott O'Connor told Abbeysbook to stifle herself. O'Connor is well known for a bunch of things. For one, she loves to share her psychological problems with the world in the form of rants. She's also known for putting limits on Kos bashing and for being the catalyst behind the formation of Peeder's PFF website after unfairly tossing the amazing Kos critic Francis Holland from her pseudo leftwing forum. MSOC owes apologies to both of them. She is busy kissing Obama's ass, so don't expect her to even try to figure out the UGOG/KosKops or how Kos' CIA timeline doesn't add up. Perhaps her frontpagers give her some greenery as incentive to turn the other way.

I am not a trusted user at DKos. I am unable to see the hidden comments. But I can see many of the troll ratings given to Abbeysbooks. She fingered Fingerit as the kingpin well before DFQ came on the scene. She even warned Shriver to steer clear of the KosKops, for people were onto their antics. She wasn't some run of the mill username. She'd been at DKos since 2005 and contributed over 7000 posts before becoming a target for the scumbag, fake lefties.

and those of us who see do not revere or admire them them. They run the most disgusting puppy mills, and shoot the ones they cannot sell. Their children are poorly educated so they can control them and their daughters are basically sold in marriage to consolidate land holdings, the way rulers used to do. A lot of them are winos with big red bulbous noses.
They are often sexually perverted but I am not going to go into stories here.
They know how to present an image and when the community is threatened as in this school shooting they know how to manage the media.
They won't drive but they hire drivers to take them to construction sites. They don't have electricity but they use our laundromat. They don't cook with gas and electricity but they eat junk food at McDonald's and the local greasy spoon.
And of course some of them are wonderful.



Someone named CarolinaDreamer used this above one as an example to explain why Abbeysbooks needed to be banned. But she left out the part about that some of them are wonderful.

Oswald was also a dyslexic and read extremely difficult texts and wrote laboriously but I think brilliantly.
You have directional confusion, which is often mistaken for dyslexia. A true brain damaged dyslexic is rare. 5% of the population and 4 out of 5 are boys. There don't seem to be any in Japan according to the last piece of research I read on this subject.
Also Leonardo is a famous exception. And IMHO I think it is an evolution of the brain that gets messed up by our culture. Because dyslexics are certainly super aware of visual images and score higher on that subtest of the WISC or WAIS. Just lower on the verbal subtests. This is one way you diagnose them, this discrepancy of score.
But your heading this is bullshit and the mistakes in your writing either indicate that you don't know, don't care, or do not have the frustration tolerance to correct it.
And mine is a made up case. And yes the person in my made up case cannot tell right from left. But a dyslexic will give directions and never tell you they get it mixed up.

which is really no different from what was said above by someone else. I just am in closer proximity to them than others posting here as they drive by my front door in their carriages every day. Five groups a day is not unusual. They wash their clothes where I do, eat where I do, buy groceries where I do and go to the same social worker's office as I do to get aid. They are my neighbors.
And everyone in my neon red town talks about the discrepancy of the way they live and advocate and their use of modern conveniences when it suits them, which is most of the time. They just don't own them. They will ride in a car and pay people to drive them, as they can't own or drive a car themselves and jobs in Springfield are 35 miles away.
And all of us dog rescue people loathe their treatment of dogs, their puppy mills, their caging the breeders in small cages, and their shooting of the ones they can't sell. And buying poor old pregnant bitches cheap at auction to sell the puppies. These auctions are desperately sad and the bidders are almost all Mennonites and Amish. My director was kicked out of the one at Cabool because she saved (bought) about $8000 worth of pregnant dogs to worm, vaccinate, and neuter and get adopted to keep them out of the puppy mills.
And for this I get troll rated into hidden comments so any criticism of these people described in the diary as
strong, as humble, as psychologically or spiritually enlightened

is eliminated from the thread.
The Soviets used to airbrush out of group pictures those who fell in disfavor with Stalin's party line who were eliminated into death or a labor camp. Here at kos your words are eliminated. Gone just like smoke into the atmosphere.
Sorry I didn't keep the other one but I will keep this one and the thread. Since when is telling the truth about some people in a religious sect bigoted? And they are known locally for their love of homemade wine. So they drink. So what. So they get drunk. So what. They are just like everyone else.

by his drinking and the brain damage that comes with 20 years or more of alcohol abuse.
Dyslexics can be everything wonderful that you say and they can also be slow learners and poor readers. They can be taught to read and even enjoy the newspaper. I worked with a 22 year old farmer from rural Delaware once who just wanted to be able to read the newspaper and he came to our clinic for about 2 years. Clinical experience and success will trump the book reading about this any day.
Others were marginal. Most are not dyslexic but mask the syndrome because they were taught to read before they were ready to read. Which means their visual discrimination was poor and their auditory discrimination necessary for word attack skillls was not developed. Start them right and you prevent the problem before it happens.
see elephant see _ which two words are the same
were where where - which word is different
was saw saw - which two are the same
want went want - which word is different
The above goes from easy to difficult. If they can't see the difference in went and want quickly without effort, then they are not ready.
Say see seen seen - which words sound exactly the same or which word sounds different. And so on and so one.
You make them up and improvise but if you have got to submit lesson plans 30 days in advance you are probably going to forget to put these little ditties in as they aren't in the reading book.
I knew a first grade teacher who when she passed out paper said how many do I need for this row? Or she would count out three and ask, how many more do I need for this row. And so on.

A big reason why I'm not supplying DKos links is because I don't want to direct traffic to that bullshit, fascist website. Let them and their addicts stew in their irrelevant blatherings. The main thing is that Abbeysbooks confronted these assholes and two years later has finally been proven correct. One dude who stood up for at the end was Jon Meltzer. One of his last posts, I don't believe he was banned, had him confronting Fingerit. You see, it is fairly obvious to anyone with the time and mouse skills to see how shady FKos has been and who the culprits were. This is what Jon said to Fingerit many months after Abbeysbooks had been unfairly banned.

and it doesn't bode well for your little theory. I decided since you made the claim that you are being hounded by a few individuals, you must know what you are talking about. But I decided to give you the information you needed to verify it.
I went through all of the comments you have ever had troll rated. You have had, since the time you started posting here, 77 comments have had at least one troll rating. There have been 91 unique UIDs that gave them to you. Many of those individuals are well known to HATE the ratings system, but you managed to cross even their lines. Many I never heard of before.
I get tired of the arguments you are making here because they are patently bullshit. There have been a few users that rated you more than others, but you call them out and have a personal vendetta against them, so I am not surprised by that. The distribution of your ratings has been fairly evenly spread out among those 91 individuals.
91 separate individuals in 77 comments. Your "only 10 mean people hypothesis" is wrong, wrong, wrong.
I have never given you a rating, by the way, but you certainly have managed to piss off a lot of people.

Ok, this next one probably deserved the troll rating. The point of the Reveng of AbbbeysBooks is that she has shown how once one becomes a target of the KosKops, extraordinary efforts including "troll rating on sight" and inside connections with upper level Kos adminins will always lead to the victim's removal from the forum. In short, the Daily Kos is a fascist entity. Abbeysbooks never deserved to be banned. Tens of thousands of people have been unfairly banned by DKos.And that's why I think it is some form of intel, for such a strategy has caused the website's popularity to utterly crash. So what is the rationale behind the Daily Kos, if they aren't into being one of the top websites? Disinformation? Divide and conquer? To be a honey pot?

I feel that Clinton was very attracted to Chelsea. She has the kind of mouth he is attracted to if you look at all his women. It is very natural for every father to appreciate and be attracted by his teenaged daughtr, or maybe even son. It is just not all right to act on it. I believe he substituted Monica for his desire for Chelsea which was unconscious to Clinton. I think Bush is not attracted to his daughters and so they have acted out in undesirable ways to get his attention.
The problem comes when fathers cannot acknowledge the sexual attraction. They repress it and this is when you get daughters being beaten for having boyfriends, staying our past curfew,etc. The beating is sexual sadistic perversion for a natural open sexual feeling for the child.
This needs to be communicated to parents.



I see BlackMax likes to give out a lot of ratings. His background is available through his profile. He admits to being pro-military and other bullshit.

Hmmm. It turns out he used to be a staunch Republican. It also turns out that Markos Moulitsas Zuniga is a big supporter of the CIA. Will wonders ever cease?

Just because the massacre involved Americans does not change anything. They are dead. Just as Iraqis are dead. Just as Cindy's son is dead. This boy Cho was growig up in a time of government sanctioned violence. Our government is setting an example that young emotional people are likely to follow. Cho will not be the last. And there will be worse to come. When you mourn them you are really mourning the loss of innocence in this country.
The feeling of safety and peace, tranquility, purpose that one gts walking through a college campus is a lovely thing. I am sure large city universities now have lots of security in place. I will miss being able to walk into a campus, go to a film club showing, enter the library without showing ID and justifying why I am there. I don't expect that freedom to continue for me.

of this massacre. We are now living in a milieu where the media talks about dead Iraqis without a blink of sympathy. It is part of the Zeitgeist now and we are breathing it. How much worse for a young student, Asian, whose parents work in a dry cleaning establishment and have sent a daughter to Princeton and a son to VT. Not too shabby.
To a young person with emotional problems the present day carnage we are causing in the middle east does not set an example we would want our young people to emulate. Now does it?
If they want to get at the bottom of these killings, let them really examine the true issues. They won't.
Why is it permitted for Bush to kill 650K Iraqis, many women and children, and an entire country not string him up lynching style. Because it is governenment doing it, it is accepted. If we do not object we condone it.
This is Edwards strength, his lawyer training. If you don't object, you accept. Very simple. You must object.
This boy was projecting his rage in the way he sees the superiors in goverment projecting theirs. Only they do not do it themselves (except Cheney)they force others to do it. The behavior of our troops in many cases is the same as Cho's behavior. Only theirs is sanctioned, it is official, so there is no punishment. Except when an example must be made to appease those who object.

I've read quite a bit about Weimar and Nazi Germany and I've never seen the claim that people were murdered in their homes, canned and sold for meat. If you want to make such a claim I suggest that you find a legitimate link for it. Isherwood was telling a story, perhaps using a metaphor and you tend to believe things too easily.
by MajorFlaw on Sun Sep 30, 2007 at 10:54:44 PM PDT


You are confused (0+ / 0-)
I did not say people were murdered in their homes. What I said was:
there were really hideous crimes. People murdering people in their apartments and then canning them and selling the meat.
To be more detailed a particular serial killer lured mostly young girls in his apartment, murdered them, canned them and sold them as meat. The people were starving at that time, no one had money or food, and inflation was outrageous.
When Isherwood writes of visiting his old landlady and telling what was left of the block after the war, that is not fiction. His retelling of newspaper articles was not fiction. Berlin Storiesis a mixture. Just because he uses the name stories in the title does not mean all of it is fiction. That would be rather a fundamentalist literary interpretation, don't you think?

we are not talking about his landlady here we are talking about whether your comment:
People murdering people in their apartments and then canning them and selling the meat.

Is based on fact. For one thing you provide no link to demonstrate that this happened even once. Then you magnify that error by exaggerating it, turning one presumably nutso serial killer into "people". The "meat processing and sale" claim is the part I really would like you to document. This could be a teachable moment.

There was a screenshot in one of the above comments showing how Trashablanca had been the lone person of four troll rating Abbeysbooks. Abbey has explained how these people would even speak out loud about their KosKop maneuvers. It's true. They did it to me, wondering aloud when the admin wiould be hammer banning me. This is the photobucket address for the screenshot.

Fingerit/Cointelpro {pt. 1}

The astroturfers are scrambling to make this whole thing seem like personal vendettas between anonymous usernames. Perhaps if one were to just go with Fingerit's attacks on Dave with his Lessons of Long Island diary, this ruse could continue. There one can see how Fingerit supported rightwingers like Hannity and Bill O'Reilly. They can see how the top Kos administrators punished Dave and gave this MajorFlaw of a human their support. Maybe even though Fingerit was clearly sidetracking the essence of Dave's essay, it could be seen as some kind of immature give and take.

I've been very curious what started the animosity between Dave and MajorFlaw/Ugog. I figured it out yesterday. The origination of the bad blood confirms that Fingerit supports rightwing hate radio and wanted to knock the effective activist down.


Bookstore Event Cancelled, Wingnut Urges Listeners to Harass Me

{diary and thread excerpts}

Mark Levin's (buddy of Rush, sidekick of Hannity) book signing scheduled for December 1st in Ridgewood has been cancelled. Levin then spent 45 minutes engaging in a verbal tirade and urging his listeners to go harass me, rhetoric which is inviting not only very serious legal action tens of times more serious than what has already occurred but possible legitimate polic action as well. This cancellation came after one of Levin's wingnuts "Pete From Long Island" posted for several hours on Levin's website that I should be "coldcocked" but only after the "cameras are taken out first." But instead of denouncing Pete from Long Island, Levin makes Pete from LI his 2nd phone caller of the show.

Levin then argues that my "entire biography" should be posted online, including my address, phone number, places of work, etc... Although worded coyly, Levin is basically urging his listeners to go out there and act like brownshirts. You can hear the disturbing audio here. Basically, the audio is full of name calling and incitement. It's very low, even for a dirtbag like Levin....

what inspired people to plan to go to Bookends Saturday? Was it me? No. There were calls across the internet for action prior to yesterday by many people whom I do not know. What motivated people was righteous outrage at Levin, Boyce, and Hannity for trying to have someone arrested because they didn't like my politics and were afraid of a question they thought I was going to ask. Regardless of politics, this touched a raw nerve in people and rightly so. There's no defense for Boyce, Levin, and Hannity and they know it and their lawyers know it.

Third, there's a fine but firm line between a public forum and a private business. A private business that invites people to its store for a big event is not the same as some New York City law firm that has an employee doing legal related work. The law firm isn't inviting anyone to its place just as Levin isn't inviting anyone to go stand outside his studio while he's broadcasting. Nobody on this site has advocated going to any bookowner's house, Levin's house, Hannity's house, Levin's business office, Hannity's business office, Boyce's residence, etc... For Levin to advocate that his Insanitized skinhead and neo nazi thugs should somehow harass me at truly private places such as a workplace that is not a public forum or my home which is not open to public events is way beyond the pale....

That's called an ad hominem attack with nothing of substance to back it up.

He IS a victim in that regard, and I believe he will have his day in court.

You chose to show up at a Hannity event and while there, stalked him with contextually trollish and obnoxious questions. They went overboard by calling the gendarmerie--which gave you the incident you wanted. Since then you have trashed any shot at a civil lawsuit by opening your big fucking mouth (legal term of art) all over the internets.

I am going by myself and perhaps a few other people will either accompany me directly or be there at my request. I'm not going as part of any known group so if other groups show up, they show up on their own volition.

You accused him of an unethical and criminal act. His actions do not meet either definition. Attending a public event in a place of business that has been advertised can not be considered stalking. Was the guy from Webb's campaign who Allen called "macaca" a stalker?

Furthermore, since when is "your big fucking mouth" a legal term of art?

Finally, he didn't cry "rape" and you know it. He used an inappropriate analogy, but spare me the PC gotcha. No reasonable person would conclude that he really intended to compare his experience to the trauma and dehumanization of being raped.

It'd be nice if the other guy, now being given the proof that I had nothing to do with that guy in the car or the guy filming the video, to do the same.

interestingly, it's the guy in the car who it could be argued tangently who caused a disturbance but you don't hear a peep from Hannity or Levin.

So why are they attacking the guy who didn't create any disturbance whatsoever and not saying a word about the wearechange guy?

visit this site, their many followers and aides do and they know who you are, that you post diaries on this site and are very vocal about your political leanings, so they have a face to attack so to speak. That other guy is nothing to them unless he posts about the occurance and might actually have a following, like you have now.

I agree with you, I am tired of bowing down to the wingnuts and turning the other check everytime I am called a traitor. I feel that some on the left absolutely need to get down in the mud with the wingnuts. This is not a level playing field so why should we try our hardest to make it so? Often times the results of this pandering to the wingnuts makes us look soft-i.e soft on terror(and I know our fight is with obl, not terror). Let them throw the first punch, but respond with force. But I am a dem from the south, so fightin is in my blood.

Second, I've only sued someone once before and trust me, you couldn't have more compelling facts and evidence than what I had/have. (Not discussing this so don't ask.)

Third, I know the elements of false imprisonment in the state of NY and they match up like a tee to what Boyce did.

And guess what? Their lawyers know it too which is why they are losing their minds over me. Why would he spend 40 minutes of his nationally syndicated show yesterday on me otherwise?

is exactly proportional to the amount of ego you have invested in this argument, and that is clearly not small given the sheer amount of energy you've devoted to fomenting angst, insult and pointless argument in this and other threads.

You're the one looking for "victories". I am merely rejoicing in the enactment of very real justice. There is a difference - something you have yet to learn; which is a great deal of the problem, but it's YOUR problem. "The abyss also looks into you", to quote a phrase.

So you can take this and turn it into a personal vendetta, or you can actually take a step back and consider what you yourself are doing wrong. I don't really care which. One will eventually get you autobanned, and the other won't.

Not only did he prove that such people have been manipulating the Daily Kos, he showed how such activities were being encouraged and sanctioned by upper level administrators including Markos Moulitsas Zuniga.

Dave put his heart and soul into being a blogger. He desired for on-line activism to equate into gains in real life democratic processes. He was not obsessed. He had stumbled onto insidious activities preventing such lofty goals. That is why he had been attacked so viciously.

Dave eventually ventured over to the Democratic Underground. Unfortunately, he had no idea at the time that he was stepping into the same exact hornets' nest that exists at Daily Kos. Correct that, he probably had an inkling, as MajorFlaw {Michael Fingerit} had admitted to being a DU moderator in the UGOG files.

I wish I had gotten to known Dave a lot earlier than I did. Perhaps myself and others could have shown him support which perhaps could have lessened the strain he must have been going through. No one likes to be labelled as obsessed or as a kooky conspiracy theorist. No one likes to have their words and works twisted around. No one likes to get into rigged debates where the other side is full of cheaters.

Here is the link to Dave's journals at DU. He went there with an open mind. Folks are encouraged to read through his threads pertaining to Daily Kos and see how inorganic and seemingly scripted the herd attacks went after him. There was no interacting with his evidence. There was no fairness. The other side were on forum steroids, while Dave was being his good old, innocent self. How was he to know that the same exact fascism taking place at DKos goes on at DU?


Here are the nuts and bolts which prove a direct connection between the fake progressives in control of DKos having the same such control at DU.


From the UGOG files:







From a DKos thread:









To repeat, Michael Fingerit never expected to be outed for being MajorFlaw. Dave simply took things he revealed about himself at the UGOG domain and did research in real life. Fingerit admitted to a case he worked on. With that info, Dave solved his real name. While Jack's Smirking Revenge of the Free Speech Zone blog would like us to believe that Fingerit and others are regular people not deserving of having their true identities revealed, nothing could be further from the truth. What political consultant would be spending such an inordinate amount of time on the net perverting freedom of speech and association at major "progressive" blogs, if such activities were simply a hobby? There is no way, in my humble opinion, that the UGOG/KosKops were regular people. They appear to be in all likelihood paid to post and corrupt democratic processes on the internet.


Fingerit never imagined himself being outed. This explains why he blabbed so much. It is one thing for an anonymous username to be discredited. But if he'd known that his internet activities could be proven to be composed of astroturf, no way would he have given anyone the tools to determine his true identity.


MajorFlaw made a big mistake in not making his UGOG website inaccessible to the public. He made a big mistake in antagonising thoughtful individuals who would sleuth their way to figuring out his true internet motives. From the quote above, it can be now be seen that he outright lied.

There is zero proof that he was ever banned from Democratic Underground, nor that the webmaster Skinner ever posted anything about him. That doesn't mean everything he wrote were lies and misdirection. That is the key to understanding disinformation. Not all of it will be untruthful. He certainly was a powerful influence at DU. He still well very may be. The reason why he didn't provide links to his alleged banning one month before an election integrity activist named TIA was shown the door is because it never happened that way. Fingerit wanted folks at DKos to believe he was a big player at DU. I do believe he was being honest when he said he had the influence to prevent people from being banned. That implies that he had the power to have adversaries banned regardless of any rules being broken. Here is the proof that he lied about his banishment from DU one month before TIA was.


This may wind up getting locked







Here is the proof that MajorFlaw was a DU moderator in April, 2005, well after the time TIA had been shown the door. While TIA posts have henceforth been allowed through his friends, the bottom line is that TruthIsAll was never reinstated by DU.





I had been successful at DU as Prepostericity in exposing the true nature of Speedway Bomber Brett Kimberlin and the lies Larisa Alexandrovna had told about him being an exonerated, ex-political prisoner. I also was successful in pointing out the truth about the Michael Connell being threatened by Karl Rove hoax. That has been covered at my humble forum/blog in the astroturfing section.


When I was attacked by the UGOG/KosKops at DKos for posting such factual information that had been censored at DU, I had trouble understanding why MajorFlaw and his astroturfing network would go out of their way to support prolific conspiracy theorists. DKos is known for having established rules against such topics. Folks have probably seen it written there time and time again, that extraordinary claims demand extraordinary evidence. So why would MajorFlaw be supporting hoaxsters?


We now have the answer. MajorFlaw {Fingerit} can now be directly linked to fake, election integrity activists.


According to Wilms at DU {emphasis his},

More credit where it's due...

It has been brought to my attention that erstwhile DUer, MajorFlaw, was very helpful in the preparation of the "DRE Reliability..." paper, for which he deserves our full appreciation.





Even in Fingerit's own words at DailyKos, he admitted to his participation in the "election integrity" movement.







I now notice that an image from that thread is no longer available. Could Michael Fingerit have been photographed? I may have a copy of that somewhere. Perhaps I can try to track it down. Probably doesn't matter. But if it did include a photo of him, this shows that this insidious individual is fearful of being exposed. How else to explain the inorganic ganging up on Dave on his threads at DU?


The paper put forth that Wilms said Fingerit helped draft was produced by VoteTrustUSA. That was an EI offshoot of the Verified Voting Foundation established by Andy Stephenson. Alexandrovna was close to Andy. John Gideon, the BradBlog's #1 blogger after Brad, also worked for that group. We now know that Brad Friedman is the frontman for confidence man Brett Kimberlin and his Velvet Revolution. We now know that the Clint Curtis and Spoonamore stories have zero credibility. We also know that a wealthy New Ager heiress named Lori Grace has provided funds to Velvet Revolution.

The bad guys are afraid of all these connections being made. I am not saying that Brad Friedman or even Larisa and Brett are paid disinformation. MajorFlaw, on the other hand, based on the sophisticated nature of the UGOG files, appears to definitely be some form of fifth column.

This is all similar to the proven facts established about Markos Moulitsas Zuniga connecting him to the CIA, Ronald Reagan, attacks on Caroline Kennedy and other Democrats, and with his ties to payola-type schemes. Proving someone is an intel supported troll is very hard to do, if not impossible. At a minimum, however, we can see how successful institutions such as Daily Kos, Velvet Revolution, Black Box Voting, Democratic Underground, and many others have been cash cows. What we don't see any evidence of is that any of them have done any good for true progressives. As for this branch of the "election integrity" movement, the only evidence there is besides the money making capabilities has been of their consistent providing of convolution and strawmen hoaxes, which have served to make election fraud appear to be a non-factor or consisting of too many strawmen to be considered as probable.

I believe the 2000 and 2004 elections were stolen by George Bush Jr.. I also believe that election integrity topics which have deserved greater attention have had to take a back seat to outrageous and easily debunked conspiracy theories. This crowd has provided a lot of convolution and not much election integrity ideas. Whether the objectives have been to raise funds through good-hearted yet gullible wealthy donors or to promote strawmen disinfo or both is besides the point. Whether someone is willing disinfo, a confidence man, or a useful idiot, he or she is contributing to the perversion of democratic processes on the internet. And such activities have had bad consequences in real life.

Where would it be most easiest for modern day cointelpro to operate than on the internet? How has what Fingerit and Markos Zuniga done on the internet been anything other than the perverting of high ideals of freedom of speech and association among true peaceniks and progressives?
