PHOTOSHOP CHALLENGE: We need a chart that makes the relationships of trolls attacking us readily understandable
This is an unusual photoshop challenge — which also appeals to people out there who have great organizational and analytical skills.
For the past few days, you’ve helped us assemble clues as to who is attacking us on the Left. This pertains to the January 20th, 2010 libelous claims made against one of us personally on the site TheBigotBasher.wordpress.com, which gave h/t (hat tips) to places like Rumproast.com and Stupidpumas.com, while Daily Kos and DemocraticUnderground spread these libelous attacks against us, and encouraged their readers to call us, on the individual and personal level, RAAACIST! in as many places as possible.
They outed one of our real names. They used a real photo of one of us. They called that person a racist, knowing full well his current and future employment would be impacted by this charge, and that his personal safety in a city like Chicago would be jeopardized.
The problem with so many clues is that it’s hard to piece the puzzle together to figure out what is going on and who is involved.
Here are threads that have a great deal of clues in them:
Cleveland Plain Dealer Finds More Ellie Lights
What impact does being called a racist have on a private citizen?
Another example of the Left attacking PUMAs
Can Trolls and PUMA Hunters be tracked back to the DNC itself?
Monday Open Thread: January 25th, 2010
Who is Sean O’Sullivan and what websites does he run?
Sunday Open Thread: January 24th, 2010
Saturday Open Thread: January 23rd, 2010
Friday Open Thread: January 22nd, 2010
We need help creating a diagram of what’s been happening, who’s involved, and how this all is tied back to the DNC and Obama White House. That last bit is the hardest nut to crack, but we believe our sleuthing will indeed get there.
Visually, if we can chart out the sites involved and what they did, we can use this as a case study of how these attacks are coordinated and planned, and that’s the first step towards developing an effective counter-punch to use against these goblins in the future.
The chart of everything that’s been happening, and everyone involved, is crucial to our ability to write up a complete report on all this — and that report is needed not just for the litigation against the parties involved, no matter what country they are in, but will also serve as a primer for anyone else out there who is attacked like this.
In short, we can do the legwork, set up the battle plan, and write a chapter in the Anti-Alinsky Playbook so that whenever these attacks happen, people don’t have to keep re-inventing the wheel.
We’d like to collect all clues in this one thread, so anything else you can add about the attackers, please do so in comments here. This way, we won’t have to keep scouring through many threads to get to the meat of what’s needed. It can all be in one place.

UPDATE: Here are more clues:
STUPIDPUMAS Twitter feed has mysteriously disappeared as of 1/25/10. Here’s a link to the Twitter search that shows it existed until recently. Why would this just mysteriously disappear if the people behind StupidPumas weren’t in on the attacks on us?
****
This is the current WHOIS for the site Rumproast.com — it was scrubbed and changed just a few days ago. ANOTHER mysterious coincidence.
The owner of Rumproast is a man in New York named Kevin K*******. We’ll just call him Kevin K.
We have the registration for Rumproast before Kevin K. changed it to private just a few days ago. It looks like this:
XX-XX XX Street #C21
Sunnyside, NY 11104
US
Registrar: DOTSTER
Domain Name: RUMPROAST.COM
Created on: 25-MAR-99
Expires on: 25-MAR-10
Last Updated on: 14-JUL-09
Administrative, Technical Contact:
KXXXXXXX, Kevin
XX-XX XX Street #C21
Sunnyside, NY 11104
US
718-XXX-XXXX
Obviously, we have all the info that’s blanked out as “X” above. We have screenshots of all this in the dossier we are building linking all of these PUMA Hunters together.
They banded together to attack PUMAs…so let them join together as defendants in all things to come.
********
Rumproast.com was h/t (hat tipped) by TheBigotBasher.wordpress.com as the source of the attack against us. In the January 20th post TheBigotBasher.wordpress.com made (which we won’t link to), at the very bottom was the credit given to Rumproast for launching this attack.
********
Kevin K. used to work for a now-defunct dot.com called Hot Socket. His linked-in profile says he works for a large advertising firm. The same one Michelle Malkin identified as being behind the astroturf attacks on Sarah Palin in 2008.
Isn’t that a mysterious coincidence?
********
A lot of times, when Kevin K. writes on the Internet and maligns people, he uses this quote:
Most Certainly,
Kevin R. XXXXXXX
“Show me a man who was born without a mouth and I will show you
a man who must eat with his nose” — Upton Sinclair (1921)
*********
“TheBigotBasher” appears to be a 39 year old man in England named Sean O’Sullivan, who goes by the name “seanosul” a lot of times on the Internet when he too maligns people
http://digg.com/users/seanosul
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/users/profile/seanosul?action=profile

http://www.reddit.com/user/seanosul/submitted/
http://www.idealistnews.com/user/seanosul
http://www.wiichat.com/nintendo-wii-chat/3874-internet-connection.html
Sean O’Sullivan is obsessed with video games, politics, and consoles.
Here he is on some dating websites in the UK, one of which it appears he lies about his age to score with British guys who will be really disappointed when a 39 year old queen shows up when they were expecting a chicken delivery.
http://fy.netlog.com/seanosul/guestbook
Interestingly enough, it appears this guy’s name MIGHT actually legally be Eamonn Sean O’Sullivan, but he (for obvious reasons) goes by “Sean” instead of Eamonn.
We believe that’s why this guy thinks no one can ever find him, because he thinks people don’t know his real name. Well, his real name may very well be Eamonn. Or possibly Rumplestiltskin.
*********
“TheBigotBasher” also posts sometimes as UKforDems on various boards where he maligns and libels people. Here’s where the connection is made between BigotBasher and UKforDems.
When you Google “UKforDems,” you see the name is all over the Democratic Underground, No Quarter, New Agenda— PUMA hunting.
And here’s a “Sean” on Stupidpumas showing his response to people on No Quarter, under the name “UKforDems” http://stupidpumas.wordpress.com/2009/02/02/stupid-puma-physics/ “sean”…ok.
Thus, Sean O’Sullivan (who is probably Eamonn Sean O’Sullivan) goes under the names: bigotbasher, Sean, seanosol, and UKforDems.
******
Here’s more weirdness attacking Darragh Murphy:
http://stupidpumas.wordpress.com/2009/02/05/ur-stupid/
*******
Here’s his YouTube channel: note the Simpsons videos and things related to Hillary Clinton, Harriet Christian (a famous PUMA we love), and PUMAs. Seanosul is obsessed with “The Simpsons” and writes about them frequently all around the Internets.
*******
*******
Here’s Seanosul writing asking questions about Depression.
*******
Apparently, Seanosul works for the British Government. We wonder if they know what he is up to all day.
Sean O’Sullivan says his job title is: “Benefits Consultant, Independent Local Authority Contractor, West Midlands” which makes sense because he described that kind of work on his windows live blog, and it’s his county. I don’t know, it sounds like social work/ government job/ welfare social worker sort of.
*******
*******
Here he is saying Republicans have Asperger’s.
*******

**********
Here’s where Seanosul talks about how much he hates lesbians:
**********
Sean’s birthday is January 13th.
He was from midlands area of England, lived in Brum (short for Birmingham).
*********
On January 25th, Kevin K. from Rumproast started scrubbing as much of his information off the Internets as possible. We took screengrabs of all of this before he could delete it all.
*********
Kevin K. once used the names “Tooney Bin” and “Balloon Juice” on the Internets.
*********
UPDATE: 1/27/10:
We’re asking all PUMA sites that were ever attacked by TheBigotBasher or any of his cohorts who post at places like Stupidpumas, BettyCracker, Daily Kos, Rumproast, and other sites to share the information they have on these people.
Here’s more that we found today on TheBigotBasher. This guys uses many different email addresses and posts under many names. We’re starting to be able to match his IP address used to attack people, libel them, and harass them on multiple boards. The same addresses keep popping up, with all roads leading back to TheBigotBasher.
UKforDems
UPDATE: 1/27/10
Here are some quotes:
“Show up at his house”
“bloody his nose”
“find out where he lives and teach him a lesson”
It goes on and on and on.
The MO on these attacks is this:
(1) BigotBasher posts more racist slurs against us on his site on WordPress
(2) Daily Kos then picks up that post and get its members to encourage people in Chicago to find us, beat us, bloody our noses, and ultimately kill us
(3) Next, DemocraticUnderground and the rest run the Kos post, reporting it as news and fact
(4) The Left, thus, has activated its troll and goon squads to commit physical violence against those it has targeted
This has been going on every day since January 20th, the one year anniversary of the beginning of “The Golden Age of Hope and Change”

The Battle of Boystown: HillBuzz heads to the Andrea Shea King Show
H/t the fabulous Mizz Jodee
The Left declared all out war on us January 20th – the way they’ve declared war on other PUMAs before. They nuked us with the same RAAACIST! charge they use against everyone else, as well. Anyone who does not fall to their knees in worship of “The Lighbringer” is, of course, a RAAACIST to the Left.
Well, this time these nuts made a critical error: they pulled this stuff on a bunch of gay guys in Boystown who aren’t afraid to fight back. We’ve turned Buzzquarters into a war room. Our walls are now covered with index cards, on which we write every clue you send us pertaining to the identity of the people who are attacking us. It’s a lot of detective work, and it’s complicated sleuthing, but we’re piecing together who is behind all of this.
We’re 99% certain we’ve identified two of the people involved, dead to rights. Confirmation of this fact has come in the form of these people deleting their sites, blocking their Linkedin profiles, etc. Why do that in the last few days if you’re not guilty?
We’re heading to the Andrea Shea King radio show at 9pm EST on Thursday to talk about what we’ve uncovered about these people, so if you tune in, you’ll get a live update from us.
We’ll also talk about how this libelous attack on us is part of the Democrats’ larger, insane strategy to destroy anyone who does not agree with them. That includes us, MODERATE DEMOCRATS, who blindly supported the party our entire lives — until the Liberals and radicals took over in 2008 to install Dr. Utopia as president.
We don’t see the strategic value in hitting at us. Despite what Donna Brazile and Howard Dean said, Democrats DO in fact need moderates. As someone else noted a week ago, Reagan Democrats are Hillary Democrats are Scott Brown Democrats are Tea Party Democrats.
That’s us.
The Battle of Boystown will be fought tooth and nail, we promise. We’ll continue to update you on what’s going on, as more than anything, this attack presents an opportunity to create a case study in how to track down attackers on the Left, how to file libel suit against them, how to identify whom they are working for at the DNC, etc.
If everyone who is attacked did this, these trolls, orcs, and goblins would be shut down lickety-split.
And, just because these people are in Britain, it doesn’t mean they can get away with this, either.
As Churchill said, kind of, “We’ll fight them on the beaches. We’ll fight them on Michigan Avenue and Halsted. We’ll fight them in Birmingham, England. We’ll fight them in New York. We’ll fight them on every shore, in every land, wherever they squat in their mothers’ basements trying to destroy people’s lives because we dare to exercise our free speech in opposition to their “Lightbringer”. And we will remain snarky and fabulous as we do it, thank you very much.”
Panda contributed that last bit, because, well, that’s Panda. “Those trolls are so f***ed and they don’t even know it. Messed with the wrong guys this time!”.
You tell ‘em, Panda.
“I totally just did”.
LISTEN TO US THURSDAY JANUARY 28th, at 9pm EST/8pm CST.

QUESTION: Why are Democrats suddenly talking about "the birth certificate"?
We have a theory on this that we’ll flesh out later, but for now we’d like your own thoughts on this: why are Democrats suddenly talking about Dr. Utopia’s birth certificate?
In short, we believe Liberals are trying to drive a wedge between the Tea Party Activists and the GOP by using the MSM to paint Tea Partiers as “birthers” — namely, people who do not believe Dr. Utopia was born in the US (there are two camps of birthers: Kenya Birthers and Canada Birthers).
The reason Dr. Utopia refuses, to this day, to release his original birth certificate, issued and given to his mother in 1961 when he was born, is clear to us: on his birth certificate, his father’s race is listed as Arab, and his father’s religion is listed as Muslim. His mother’s race is White and her religion is most likely Atheist (but could have been a default to whatever her parents were, since at 18, we don’t know if Stanley Dunham was an atheist yet or not).
The Utopia campaign was genius in using the MSM to cloud the real reason he’s keeping his birth certificate secret.
We believe Axelrod and company have been behind spreading the “birther” rumors, to distract from the real reason that document is kept hidden (namely, that it lists Obama’s father as an Arab Muslim). The Utopia campaign believes Americans will see Dr. Utopia as a liar if this truth came out…so, they preemptively mitigate that risk by painting anyone who talks about the birth certificate as a lunatic.
In 1961, there’s no other way Utopia’s father would have been listed on an official state document. We’ve seen birth certificates from that era in Hawaii. The father and mother’s race and religion are recorded. The modern, computer printouts of these forms delete that information, for whatever reason. But, the actual, physical, completed by the hospital and issued before the baby is released form Stanley Dunham got has Utopia recorded as the son of an Arab Muslim.
You can discuss amongst yourselves why Utopia has devoted so much effort to hiding this fact. It’s nothing you wouldn’t know about his father if you read the two books William Ayers ghost-wrote for him. But, it has always felt that Utopia’s handlers believe that birth certificate coming to light, being distributed, and being seen by millions would doom him in some way.
To us, it’s proof that he lies about almost everything. Dating back all the way to the day he was born.
In recent days, papers that have never talked about the birth certificate before have started talking about it…at the same time Democrats are doing their level best to attack the Tea Party Movement, and many think drive a wedge between them and Republicans in general.
The Tea Partiers put Scott Brown over the top in Massachusetts. They will be a powerful force in the 2010 elections. Democrats are scare out of their minds. And when Liberals get scared, they lash out and attack.
What do you think is going on?
The reason he's never photographed from behind
A guy with a bald spot that big does not sell so many tee shirts
The media’s very careful in how they photograph Dr. Utopia.
He’s never snapped from behind, and he’s rarely ever seen in right profile.
We always wondered what was being hidden in the behind shots — and now that’s clear, it’s his giant bald spot.
The embargo on shots of him in right profile are to hide the bizarre scar he has running from the back of his head on the right side all the way up to his crown. This appears to be from either a massive head injury or a brain operation years ago:
What is that scar from?
Maybe whatever caused the scar is the reason this man needs a TelePrompTer to address a bunch of sixth graders:
Can you imagine how much George W. Bush would have been lampooned had he done this?
Is Sarah Palin really coming to Washington, Illinois on April 17th?
Anyone in the Palinverse reading this, please confirm whether or not Sarah Palin is really coming to the Five Points Washington to speak at a banquet on April 17th.
If she is, we’ll totally go down there and attend this.
We haven’t talked to her in person since the last time we saw her in Lakewood, Ohio right before the 2008 election. Essentially, we want to encourage her to run for President, and will look her in the eye and swear to her that we’ll do everything in our power to make sure she’s the next occupant of the Oval Office in 2013.
We also want to thank her for being awesome, and for tossing so many ninja throwing stars at Dr. Utopia.
Honestly, we love this woman. We know that makes some of your brains boil, because the two women we love more than anything on this Earth are Hillary Clinton and Sarah Palin, but it’s true. At the risk of sounding too New-Agey, we can just see into their hearts and we know how much they love America. And despite the fact so many trolls come here and say over and over again, “But they have such different positions on everything!”, you people are nuts.
One has blonde hair, the other’s a brunette. One was First Lady, a Senator, and Secretary of State. The other one was a Mayor, Commissioner, and Governor. One’s a moderate, rational Democrat unlike anything currently in office. The other’s a sensible, normal, take-no-prisoners Republican unlike anything currently in office.
Both LOVE THIS COUNTRY.
Just like we do.
Welcome to BizarroWorld, because we’re a bunch of gay dudes in Chicago who’d love to work for a Palin for President campaign — for free if we have to. We’d bring with us all the experience we have from the 2008 campaign dealing with all of Dr. Utopia’s dirty tricks.
And, it totally goes without saying we’d be FABULOUS.
So, we’d love to know if Palin is really going to be at this event.
If she is, we’ll get tickets.
The moment we get them, we’ll let you know, so if you want to attend and meet some of us, we’d love to see you in person and say hi. That’s really outside the box for us, because we’ve been terrorized so much in the last few years that we’re scared of doing anything in person. But, honestly, the attacks from the Left in the last week have made us think of Hillary and Palin more than ever.
Do these women ever allow lunatics to bring them down?
Nope.
Do the two of them ever buckle under the relentless attacks waged against them?
No.
Do either of them ever give up or stay home just because lunatics call them racists and try to force them off the stage?
Not on your life.
Will we channel their combined strength and work harder every day just to spite the Left that’s trying to drive us under?
YOU BETCHA!
****************
UPDATE: It’s weird that there’s no official confirmation from the Palinverse that this event is actually happening, but we were able to get two tickets…so two of us will be driving down to wherever Washington, IL is for a road trip. It’s very nice to have something fun like this to look forward to, and take our mind off the nonsense we’ve been dealing with lately.
Tuesday Open Thread: January 26th, 2010
First off, this will probably be a daily thing, but we can never thank all of you enough for all of your support. We’re trying to reach out to as many of you as possible on a personal level, to thank you for everything you are doing to help us hit back at the Left for their attacks on us personally. We are so grateful, especially for all of you out there who tell us all day that you are praying for us. We can feel it. Please continue to pray we find the strength each day to take this fight to Mordor itself. Strength, courage, and resolve.
The silver lining in all of this has become obvious:
(1) What’s happened to us, and our response with your help, is a case study in how to fight back against Alinksy methods. The Left wins because its targets are cowed into submission and do not fight back. It’s going to take a lot of effort to win this fight, but we’re confident if we work hard, continue to connect all the dots, and refused to be silenced, we might just bring down Daily Kos and DemocraticUnderground themselves in the end. Who knows how high these attacks go? We plan on finding out.
(2) All of you have proved, yet again. how effective moderates, conservatives, and independents can be when we play on the same side, are in the same Justice League, and form a unified front against the Left. Liberals have never been up against a coalition like this before. If we stick together through 2012, we’ll be the winning coalition that puts Sarah Palin in the White House and banishes Dr. Utopia and his “fashion icon wife” to Hawaii for keeps.
We pledge to work hard every day to defeat every Liberal in office and take back this country from crazies and radicals.
The attack on us that was designed to crush us, thanks to you, will only make us stronger. Perhaps that’s why this particular challenge was placed in our path. The road to defeating Dr. Utopia is a tough one. We’ll all be up against not only the Left, but the MSM, ACORN, the SEIU, and all manner of other goons too.
If we just keep working hard, and working together, we will win. The DNC and lunatic Left will lose. Dr. Utopia and his socialists will be defeated and Liberalism itself will be made pariah for the next 30 years.
If you keep standing with us, together we can make that happen.
************
What else is on your mind today?
Question: Who runs the site Stupidpumas.com and is he the one behind the attacks on us?
In Mr. Donovan’s geometry class years ago in high school, we labored over proofs assembling all known facts, drawing logical airtight conclusions from all observable angles.
We’re not detectives. We’re not investigators. But, we’ve been attacked by the Left, in what we believe is an organized and coordinated hit against us.
We’re deeply grateful for all the sleuthing all of you have been doing.
It’s come to our attention that the site Stupidpumas.com has writing eerily similar to the style and content at the site TheBigotBasher.wordpress.com. That’s the site that libeled and defamed us by attacking us personally and calling one of us a racist.
Stupidpumas.com did the same thing to Darragh Murphy, the co-founder of the PUMA movement (and a personal hero to us in many ways, even if we don’t agree with her always).
Here’s an attack piece StupidPumas.com ran on Murphy:
http://stupidpumas.wordpress.com/2009/04/07/darragh-murphy-is-a-racist-assho
le/
And here’s another hit piece in the same vein:
Attacks on JenniferHillary
http://my.democrats.org/page/community/post/markgoldstein/C5nH
Who is behind StupidPumas.com?
Let’s build an airtight establishment of that person’s identity…just like a geometric proof. Whoever the proof leads to is the culprit behind the attacks on Murphy.
And since the attacks on Murphy are so similar to the attacks on us, written in the same style as the attacks on us, we’re sure some theorum or postulate could also prove this individual is one of our attackers too.
Every day we get a little closer to exposing the people behind all this. Once we have concrete proof of who it is, we will indeed publish your identities for all the world to see, just as you revealedone of us, posted his picture, told people he is a racist, and encouraged Obama supporters in Chicago to harm him physically, financially, emotionally, and personally.
We will not stop until every last one of these trolls is dragged kicking and screaming into the sunlight.
******
PS: The libel statutes in most of the states involved in these attacks so far seem to cover the period when the attacks against Murphy and others were made as well.
We’re not lawyers, but on the TV shows we like, when different people in different states who’ve been victimized by the same team of attackers come together, they have the option of doing some kind of combined, multi-pronged suit.
Or, maybe every individual called a racist by Stupidpumas and others should just take legal action against them individually.
One of the people Stupidpumas attacked said, “I don’t have 30,000 readers a day to help me figure out who these people are who called me a racist”. Well, we thank Heaven we DO have a readership of sleuths who’s helping us get to the bottom of all this.
So, whoever out there that Stupidpumas brutalized and libeled, now is your chance to stand up and do something about it, and clear your own names as well.
The Cleveland Plain Dailer finds more examples of "Ellie Light" in dozens of new papers
The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports the astroturfing tool that is “Ellie Light” has been discovered in dozens of new papers.
We’ve been engrossed in a mystery of our own: figuring out the identities of “TheBigotBasher” and others at Rumproast, Daily Kos, DemocraticUnderground, Betty Cracker, and Snarkopolitan who have been attacking us and libeling us as “racist” in the last week.
But, we’re following the Ellie Light story as well.
Such an oddball name has to have some sort of symbolic meaning to someone. Who do you think the author is?
* Cass SUNstein = sun being related to light
* Ellie = What Michelle Obama was called in high school, so someone using that as a nod to her that only people who really read up about her would know (we certainly didn’t know her high school nickname before now)
What other clues could “Ellie Light” lend itself to…and are the same people behind Ellie Light also responsible for the vicious, libelous attacks on those who do not support Dr. Utopia?
An S.O.S to anyone in Britain: we need a solicitor who specializes in libel
It’s becoming increasingly clear to us that the originator of the racist accusations libeling us on the site TheBigotBasher.wordpress.com is writing from Britain.
We believe he is working with a man and woman in New York state.
The three of them form a team, which conspires to commit libel, defamation of character, and tortitious interference of contracts across state lines…and in the case of TheBigotBasher, apparently across the Atlantic as well.
This is a direct notice to all entities involved in these attacks against us, including the Daily Kos and DemocraticUnderground: everyone spreading this racist accusation against us will be considered in our eyes to be part of the team conspiring to do us personal, financial, and physical harm.
We will list all of you as co-defendents.
We will subpeona Kos and DU for your IP addresses and real identities.
We will take you all to court, and in the discovery process we will find out whom you are working for.
We are not afraid to take this fight to the very heart of Mordor, to the DNC and White House itself.
You have gone too far this time. The little Hobbit homos in Boystown will not cower before you orcs and trolls.
We will expose all of you. We will make sure your employers know what you do to people. We will reveal your connections to the DNC to the American public and we will stand on Michigan Avenue with a bullhorn if we have to, to tell everyone within earshot of what the Democratic Party has become, with the likes of you paid and encourage to attack private citizens this way.
We have no connections at all in Britain.
To our knowledge, we don’t have a readership in England.
We do have some mighty fine Australians and Canadian supporters.
PLEASE, do us the favor of thinking of any solicitors in Britain who can help us.
We believe the attack originated in Birmingham. That is where we believe TheBigotBasher.wordpress.com is published. It all started with this site on January 20th. If this person behind all of this is indeed in Britain, he believes we cannot get to him from Chicago.
Please help us prove this attacker wrong.
If need be, we’ll sell a kidney or two if we have to raise enough to head to England to pursue a libel case against TheBigotBasher.
Who knows how long this person has been up to these attacks, but he messed with the wrong Hobbits this time.
Question of the Day: What impact does being called "racist" have on a private citizen? Let's analyze the Left's favorite, overused weapon.
One of the comments we received today was, “Why do you care if someone calls you a racist. It’s just like saying you have cooties. It’s no big deal”.
Let’s pause for a moment and think about the impact of calling a private citizen, non-public figure, a racist. How does that impact a person’s life and future? What damage does it cause? What acts of violence does it set that person up to receive?
Calling someone a racist is like yelling FIRE! in a crowded theater. It draws immediate attention, and provokes an emotional and instantaneous instinctual response in most people. In the example of the theater, you shout FIRE! and people stampeded for the exits, trampling anyone in their path. That’s why shouting FIRE! is illegal.
The Left’s favorite Alinsky attack on private citizens is calling them racists. They’ve been doing this for decades. Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton have built a multi-million (if not billion) dollar extortion industry on this…though usually their targets are corporations with deep pockets, and before they start shouting about RAAACISM!, they give the CEOs a chance to “hire Jackson and Sharpton as high-paid consultants to teach racial diversity and sensitivity classes”. If a company bawlks at the shakedown, Jackson and Sharpton mobilize the ACORN, SEIU, Alinsky crowd and astroturf protests at every important office of the company, busing in angry demonstrators from who knows where. Part of us thinks there are just shifts of these people forever on call, housed in warehouses playing poker and Guitar Hero until the RAAACISM! signal lights up and they all lickety-split it into the always-idling vans and buses, their protests signs forever lined up and prepped for instantaneous use.
While it’s true that every day, it seems, the Left calls someone a racist, and the MSM allows Jackson and Sharpton, Henry Gates, and their ilk to racialize everything, it is NOT true that charges of RAAACISM! casually lobbed at private citizens have no impact.
Diamonds are forever, and so are Google search results…especially when Google, part of Obama’s axis of support, has admitted to stacking results for political or economic reasons. You can pay to have your site pop up first in search results. Google can control what turns up and what does not. If Google wants something to disappear, it’s like it never existed. If Google wants something to endure forever, the pyramids will melt first.
If you are someone who has been attacked by the Left, libeled as a racist, and punished for not bowing down before The Lightbringer, Dr. Utopia, then Heaven help you…because Google certainly never will.
We’ve spoken to people in the last week who have been trying for YEARS to have unfounded racist accusations against them removed from Google. It’s damn near impossible. Yet, mysteriously, unflattering photos of the current First Lady are dispatched to the bowels of shadowy Hades moments after they hit the ‘Net. So, you see, some things can indeed be removed forever, while others are deliberately intended to remain front and center. Welcome to Google…welcome to “The Golden Age of Hope and Change”, and Liberal rule.
The impact of unfounded racist accusations is three-fold, at the very least:
(1) Personal
(2) Professional

In the personal realm, when a site like BigotBasher publishes your name, calls you a racist, and thus commits actionable libel, that person destroys your personal relationships — particularly with anyone who cannot afford to be associated with someone under attack like this. In the past week, we’ve seen who are our real friends, who’s just been along for the ride when times are good. A guy you’re dating and really liked will break up with you because he does not “want to get dragged into anything this frightening”. Friends of yours you ask for help from will tell you they “can’t afford to lose work themselves right now, so don’t come around me until this dies down”. Family, loved ones, people you care about, are deeply hurt that someone out there, anonymously, is savaging you this way. BigotBasher’s attacks have very real costs, on a personal level, and everyone associated with this attack should have to suffer consequences for these actions.
Additionally, pursuant to the above, just imagine you are a freelancer, forever dependent on luck and referrals to get more work. Prospective employers and new clients all Google you. Instead of the good work you’ve done your entire adult life turning up in searches, now dozens of pages calling you a racist turn up instead, all originating from that initial BigotBasher post, which was carried on Rumproast, Daily Kos, DemocraticUnderground, and via dozens of other Leftist sites in the Legion of Doom that’s been engaged since 2008 to destroy all who dare speak out against “The One”.
These are the tactics employed by Islamofascists against anyone they perceive as offending Muhammad or Islam. They issue a fatwa upon your head, and send the signal to the faithful to completely destroy your life, make you unemployable, and shut you up for good. Their main aim, it seems, is to so terrify someone with these attacks that they never want to talk about politics again. They want people to buckle, to crumble into a heap, and be terrified of ever touching a computer again. THAT’S what these attacks are meant to accomplish.
We’ve told you before, it’s not going to work this time. Unlike many of the people who have been on the receiving end of these fatwas, we’re single, gay, and have lived good lives with no regrets. If these people killed us tomorrow for standing up to Obama, then we’d die knowing we did eveything we could to save this country from the radicals and socialists who took over our government in 2008. So what if we don’t get to live to see 35. There are no kids we’d orphan. We don’t even have cats or dogs. The bars in Boystown wouldn’t even notice the dip in Pilsner sales.
So, attacking young gay guys was a stupid move on the Left’s part.
We’re loud. We have been harassed our whole lives for being gay, have been gay-bashed, and one of us has even been raped. We’ve been mugged in New York and here in Chicago. One of us was punched in the face in 2008 for standing up for Trig Palin when Leftists were making fun of his Downs Syndrome. We’ve been called fags more times than we can count, and every day multiple comments are left in our spam filter, from the same IP addresses, using different names, telling us how much they want us to get AIDS and die.
So, considering all of this, having people like BigotBasher, Rumproast, DailyKos, DemocraticUnderground, or the DNC and White House themselves call us racists and attempt to ruin our lives just makes us want to talk about politics MORE, and to go door to door telling everyone in America what’s going on and how far the Democrat Party has gone in its Alinsky zeal.
We’ve made the reference before, but it’s apt to repeat it: it’s like demented Voldemort coming after Harry Potter again and again, thereby creating the very person who will stand up to him and ultimately defeat him.
We consider the events of this week the thing that gave us our lightning bolt scar.
If you think we were committed to defeating the Left before, now that the Left has come after us personally, and destroyed one of our lives, you can bet we’re more committed than ever to bringing these people down.
Since the Left has now cost one of us actual work, he’ll just have to spend all day rallying people against these Alinsky methods and teaching people how to expose and bring down the DNC itself for supporting these sorts of tactics.
And we’d love to have as many Rons and Hermiones as we can get to help us.
But, despite our references to children’s literature and our belief in always fighting the good fight, we do need to address the issue of our personal safety and physical well-being.
When someone says, “It’s no big deal to call you a racist”, we don’t think you understand what it’s like to live in a racially charged city like Chicago, where the black community routinely lashes out at anyone it perceives as “RAAACIST”. This is, of course, because of everything Jackson, Sharpton, and Gates have done for their entire careers. The black community is muscle-memory inclined to rise up and attack anyone labeled as “racist”, without giving that person the benefit of the doubt or realizing they are being played by people who want to use this resource as a weapon.
If you are swimming in the ocean with great white sharks, and someone throws a bucket of blood in the water, then drops a boom box overboard with the sound of seals splashing about, that person has set the stage for epic violence to devour you.
BigotBasher knows we live and work in Chicago.
DailyKos knows the black community in Chicago is routinely exploited by the likes of Jackson and Sharpton to attack anyone they label as “racist”.
DemocraticUnderground knows posting someone’s name and photo in a city with high racial tension, then calling that person a RAACIST, is tantamount to painting a giant target on the guy’s back.
We believe this was the direct intent of the Left in this attack.
We believe they crafted this assault, via BigotBasher, to get one of us beaten up, if not actually killed.
If you don’t like this site and think we are bad writers or don’t know what we are talking about, then don’t read us. If you disagree with anything we’ve ever written, then counter it point by point academically, like an intellectual.
But, calling someone who lives in a racial tinderbox like Chicago a RAAACIST, then putting his picture up there to make him an easy target…that’s just provoking a physical attack on the person. What’s next? Heading out to street corners in bad neighborhoods with flyers and an actual bounty put on a PUMA’s head…just because they don’t agree with you and your devotion to the current president?
All this over a political blog.
All this because we didn’t vote for your candidate, don’t believe he is a good or effective leader, and do not feel this country is headed in the right direction.
Welcome to “The Golden Age of Hope and Change”, where Obama’s Legion of Doom is in never-ending campaign mode, crushing all resistance, and eliminating as many of his opponents on a regular basis.
Daily Kos and Democratic Underground could EASILY, in one stroke, end these attacks on us. We have spam filters here on HillBuzz. Words like “f***” and “c***” and any posts that come in that WordPress sensors think are trollish go right to a spam folder. Those of you who complain about your posts not turning up right away have to realize that without these spam filters, the most vile things imaginable would fill up threads. It’s unfortunate everyone has to suffer this delay in posting, but we don’t want nastiness to take over something we work so hard to keep sane and moderate.
Daily Kos and Democratic Underground could easily add our names, and HillBuzz itself, to its spam filters, so that any mention of us at all would disappear immediately into the ether. There would be no way to libel, defame, or threaten us if they did this. But, they choose not to protect private citizens like us from the ravages of their writers.
We’re not lawyers, but we believe this makes Kos and DU culpable in all of this, and makes them part of the RICO-worthy conspiracy to libel, defame, destroy, and cause physical harm to us as individuals. Kos has been playing a game all week where threats are made against us in various threads, left up for a while, and then deleted. As we said, the technology exists to keep those posts from ever happening to begin with.
If we are so insignificant, and if what we say about Dr. Utopia has no merit, then why talk about us at all on Kos or DU? Why are we such a threat? Why does such actions have to be taken against us — especially on the day after the Massachusetts election?
Why attack us now?
Why use the nuclear option of RAAACIST! allegations to incite violence against us in Chicago?
Why, if Obama really is “The Lightbringer”, and everything Democrats are doing right now is so wonderful, do Obama supporters need to use tactics like this?
Lastly…why do people who attack us personally, as private citizens, not step forward and reveal their own names, on sites like Bettycracker, Rumproast, Daily Kos, DemocraticUnderground, and BigotBasher?
Why does the Legion of Doom hide behind so many masks?
What can we do to form a Justice League to take them down so they can’t do things like this to destroy people anymore?
It’s too late to save us. The damage is done. Our lives won’t ever be the same. Our futures have been impacted by this. We bear the scars.
But, we CAN do everything in our power to make sure progress is made towards shutting the DNC’s Alinsky Machine down once and for all…so this does not have to happen to anyone else.
Frankly, even if it kills us.
We have nothing else to lose at this point.
