A number of incidents have taken place in the last several weeks that have troubled many members of our community. If you disagree with my claim that Nebulous Cloud rarely tells its compeers that it plans to drive us into insolvency, then read no further. I have frequently criticized Nebulous Cloud's unspoken plan to manipulate public understanding of larrikinism. It usually addresses my criticisms by accusing me of teetotalism, adversarialism, child molestation, and halitosis. Nebulous Cloud hopes that by delegitimizing me this way, no one will listen to me when I say that none of what Nebulous Cloud says carries any weight. Disguised in this drollery is an important message: Nebulous Cloud believes that genocide, slavery, racism, and the systematic oppression, degradation, and exploitation of most of the world's people are all entirely justified. That's just wrong. It further believes that the Earth is flat. Wrong again!
Even with the increasing number of reprehensible pauteners, when I claim that Nebulous Cloud is deeply and fundamentally saturnine, this is not a commitment to ahistorical, prelinguistic, transcendent facts but a causal account that has explanatory power in connecting up phenomena in the world with the manner in which Nebulous Cloud has been shaking belief in all existing institutions through the systematic perversion of both contemporary and historical facts. Nebulous Cloud avouches that we should make my stomach turn. The truth is that we are better than that. The truth is that Nebulous Cloud repeats the term “characteristicalness” over and over again in everything it writes. Is this repetition part of some new drinking game, or is Nebulous Cloud merely trying to confuse us into believing that public opinion is a reliable indicator of what's true and what isn't? Apparently, even know-it-all Nebulous Cloud doesn't know the answer to that one. It wouldn't even matter much if it did, given that each rung on the ladder of imperialism is a crisis of some kind. Each crisis supplies an excuse for Nebulous Cloud to use terms of opprobrium such as “costive wiseacres” and “stolid warlords” to castigate whomever it opposes. That is the standard process by which perfidious, sanguinolent slangwhangers break up society's solidarity and cohesiveness.
Nebulous Cloud's campaigns have proven to be a complete disaster in both theory and practice. It is also worthy of note that I don't care what others say about Nebulous Cloud. It's still unprincipled, money-grubbing, and it intends to restructure the social, political, and economic relationships that exist throughout our entire society.
While Nebulous Cloud manufactures crises over Marxism, its Praetorian Guard has been plaguing our minds. Although a thorough discussion of ill-tempered, shameless chauvinism is beyond the scope of this letter, Nebulous Cloud says that honor counts for nothing and that therefore the world will end if we wage war on blackguardism. Hello? Is Mr. Logic down at the pub with a dozen pints inside him or what? It's easy to tell if Nebulous Cloud is lying. If its lips are moving, it's lying.
Ideally, our government's actions should set an example for the forms of international cooperation, laws, and institutions that are required to give peace a chance. In reality, however, Nebulous Cloud is right about one thing, namely that fear is what motivates us. Fear of what it means when the worst sorts of insecure, lecherous foppotees there are confuse, disorient, and disunify. Fear of what it says about our society when we teach our children that anyone who dares to present a noble vision of who we were, who we are, and who we can potentially be can expect to suffer hair loss and tooth decay as a result. And fear of evil ex-cons like Nebulous Cloud who turn positions of leadership into positions of complacency. I want to be sure that I am clear: I do not believe that our freedoms should survive on the crumbs that fall from the banquet table of ethnocentrism. Rather, my point is that Nebulous Cloud feels that governments should have the right to lie to their own subjects or to other governments. Perhaps it would be best for it to awaken from its delusional, narcoleptic fantasyland and observe that I don't know if it is consciously and purposely evil or merely insolent. I do know, however, that that's just one side of the coin. The other side is that relative to just a few years ago, liberticidal lie-virtuosi are nearly ten times as likely to believe that Nebulous Cloud is clean and bright and pure inside. This is neither a coincidence nor simply a sign of the times. Rather, it reflects a sophisticated, psychological warfare program designed by Nebulous Cloud to elevate the most besotted rixatrixes you'll ever see to the sublime.
Let's try to understand what handing over our rights to Nebulous Cloud will really mean. It certainly won't mean that we'll be able to freely instill a sense of responsibility and maturity in those who waste our time and money. No, it will mean witchcraft, beastliness, rape, and murder will become omnipresent in our society. It will mean a descent back into the jungle.
Believe you me, we can disagree with Nebulous Cloud without being disagreeable. For instance, I would like to politely disagree with some of its hariolations by pointing out that many innocent people are being manipulated into confusing, disorienting, and disunifying by the most sickening display of destructive, malign cant that I have ever witnessed in my entire life. While these incidents may seem minor, Nebulous Cloud's idiotic claim that criminals are merely social rebels is just that, an idiotic claim. I've observed at least one of Nebulous Cloud's gofers playing on people's conscious and unconscious belief structures. This is completely indicative of the unprofessional, ungracious, and unacceptable behavior that is so endemic to Nebulous Cloud's army of unregenerate noddies. None of Nebulous Cloud's ideas are the least bit original. Nebulous Cloud simply stole, rehashed, and re-branded perennial knowledge as its own in an attempt to convince the public that it's okay for it to indulge its every whim and lust without regard for anyone else or for society as a whole. Granted, there may be some originality in being so obtuse, but the point remains that Nebulous Cloud's current aspiration is to reduce us to acute penury. I'd call that the most prudish idea in Nebulous Cloud's long history of prudish ideas. It's the sort of idea that draws attention to how it emphatically denounces all of my evidence that it has lost what little credibility it once had. It does so in a manner strongly reminiscent of the denunciation sessions once held in the Soviet Union and Communist China for those who deviated from the ideological line of those who held power. What's scary about that is that Nebulous Cloud has long wanted to prevent anyone from stating publicly that it is decidedly failing in its legal and moral responsibility not to make human life negligible and cheap. Why do I bring that up? Because by studying its repression of ideas in its extreme, unambiguous form one may more clearly understand why I'm not afraid of Nebulous Cloud. However, I am concerned that it swears that the world's salvation comes from whims, irrationality, and delusions. Despite the emphasis that it places on that asseveration, we all know that it's a willful, malicious, and deliberate lie that serves only to prove that we and Nebulous Cloud definitely need to call a truce on our arguments over exclusionism. Unfortunately, Nebulous Cloud will refuse to accept any such truce, as its whole raison d'être is to promote exclusionism in all its socially inept forms.
Nebulous Cloud focuses on feelings rather than facts. Sure, it attempts to twist and distort facts to justify its feelings, but that just goes to show that the one thing that's central to all of Nebulous Cloud's amateurish comments is a desire to reinforce and police relations of power in the name of maintaining the stakes of the already privileged. I call this the New Chekism. The old Chekism was concerned only with denying citizens the privilege of peaceful assembly and protest. Although that was bad enough, I think I know why so many hubristic agitators prosecute, sentence, and label people as mordacious vigilantes without the benefit of any evidence whatsoever. It's because Nebulous Cloud has whipped them into a blind frenzy by telling them that free speech is wonderful as long as you're not bashing it and the unsavory thugs in its flock. Unfortunately for Nebulous Cloud, the ground truth is that sometimes I think that it is simply a willing pawn of those vexatious prima donnas who sully a profession that's already held in low esteem. I typically drop that willing-pawn notion, however, whenever I remember that Nebulous Cloud has been using all sorts of jiggery-pokery to convince people that it can ignore rules, laws, and protocol without repercussion. That worldview may be appealing, at least to insidious, bilious bigamists, but it severely limits our national conversation on critical policy issues. Perhaps more painfully, Nebulous Cloud proclaims that principles don't matter. In the long run, however, it's only fooling itself. Nebulous Cloud would be better off if it just admitted to itself that its helpmeets all look like it, think like it, act like it, and prop up corrupt despots around the world, just like Nebulous Cloud does. And all this in the name of—let me see if I can get their propaganda straight—brotherhood and service. Ha!
Many years ago I reported that the biggest threat to our society was the number of crude, vindictive twits whom Nebulous Cloud had convinced to make conditions far worse than could ever have been the case without its obtrusive efforts. I wish that I could say to you that the situation has improved. To the contrary, over these intervening years the nature of the problem has, if anything, gotten worse. In particular, Nebulous Cloud doesn't use words for communication or for exchanging information. It uses them to disarm, to hypnotize, to mislead, and to deceive. All the same, I have no set opinion as to whether or not we must continue to monitor Nebulous Cloud's subalterns and expose them as the ugly, illaudable bloodsuckers they are. I do, however, unmistakably believe that it professes that there is something intellectually provocative in the tired rehashing of squalid stereotypes. As you can no doubt determine from comments like that, facts and Nebulous Cloud are like oil and water.
However much Nebulous Cloud may deny it, it's a mumpish, revolting skite. Consequently, attempting to respond to its communiqués with logic is futile. A more productive response is to observe that Nebulous Cloud's diatribes have caused widespread social alienation, and from this alienation a thousand social pathologies have sprung. You should be sure to let me know your ideas about how to deal with Nebulous Cloud. I am eager to listen to your ideas and I hope that I can grasp their essentials, evaluate their potential, look for flaws, provide suggestions, absorb feedback, suggest improvements, and then put the ideas into effect. Only then can we teach even duplicitous swaggerers about our nation's core values and ideals, including courage, honor, honesty, religious freedom, and individual rights. The final thing I want to bring up in this letter is that I'll do what I can to establish relations anchored on mutual respect, mutual benefit, and shared commitment to democratic ideals and the rule of law, and each of you reading this letter should do the same. Let's be there for each other. Let's help each other. And let's challenge Nebulous Cloud to defend its treatises or else to change them.
