Kevin Ryan writes book, will blame 19 by name

I ask you to summarize five hours of youtubery and you respond with... more YouTube.

You aren't particularly serious about this are you?

Or of course, perhaps you simply lack the ability of free thought and intelligence required to produce such a summary.

Ooh, ooh, I know - pick me! :rolleyes:
 
I see on Kevin Ryan's website that he has questions about the FBI / CIA being behind the Boston Marathon bombings. He appears to be a serial dot-connector.

Kudos for noticing. I was just having a little fun testing how much ranting would occur without anybody paying attention to the content. Part five was the last one, which "those who listened" would have known. ;)

So you were trying to prove that you're so discredited no one pays attention to your posts any more?
 
There is one and only one reason I don't care what Chandler has to say:
he makes a claim and he castrates and shuts up anyone that DARES to question him.

I don't buy this "I make a claim and you shut up" policy. I don't care if he's writing a book or doing a 5 hour commentary about it. I don't know where he gets the content from unless he's doing a literal biography on the people he blames, but a relatively short summary of the issues would suffice for more general purposes if that's his intended audience. But advice, criticism, and commentary fall outside of his interests, so I ask "so what"? Why should I be bothered to care what he says when as a critic I'm not allowed to be skeptical of what he has to say? Every criticism I've seen him comment on has been treated cynically as far as I can recall, the only exception being opinions that align with what he pushes. After so many years, I'm not into being "lenient" on my low opinion of him, nor do I care if he cares about that.

Funny how willing you are for us to waste hours listening to some video you can't be bothered to spend two minutes summarizing in your own words... :rolleyes:

Oh I am sure he's working on it still. You know, first draft, then second draft, gotta get it consise and correct, convey the message just right. Probably on the 88th draft of it about now.

Either that or he hasn't bothered to watch the five hours worth of blather either and therefore cannot offer a summary, or ,,,, horrors,,, is intellectually incapable of summarizing anything in his own words.

As they sang in Oliver : "Who will buy this crap book I'm writing?/ Who will buy this **** that's my screed?"

Chandler's method of making a point reminds me of staunch partisan politics, it's fundamentally incompatible with skepticism... so excuse me for not giving him any leniency at all... I suppose if you find it funny I'm happy I made that possible... but seriously, people who leave no flexibility for peer commentary are in no position to be chastising people as lacking skepticism, and aren't deserving of the leniency of benefit of the doubt in return. He's removed all such benefit, and he playing in the real world, where professional mistakes have serious liability... particularly in areas of building design that he likes to inject himself into.
