I know whenever I get angry at/about Robert that it's unwarranted and I should be content with the knowledge that he's suffering just by virtue of being Robert Chipman.
But I'm frankly torn. On one hand, I feel like I need to keep up on this thread because people like
@Positron are bearing this horrible burden of having to daily summarize his activities and we can't let them suffer alone. He's so prolific and so much of what he says is outrageous that it takes a village to properly address it.
Also, his fondness for blocking people who dare to question him means that the bile he spews goes unchallenged on his home turf (Twitter) so we need to provide a counter balance by refuting him here, even if the balance is just cosmic.
But it seems as if two or three times a week he manages to bounce on my nerves and get me MOTI. I realize that I constitutes a loss on my part, that I'm the "N*zi CHUD mayo ghoul obsolete" etc. that makes Robert lose sleep by simply existing and should just be the best N*zi CHUD I can be.
I guess what I'm saying is, do any of you have this experience, and how do you deal with it? Do people like
@Positron ever feel like their burden is too much or are they having fun and what he says doesn't get to them at a personal level?
Am I making myself a worse person by participating in the thread? Am I giving Robert what he wants by observing him? Do his views represent a large enough segment of society that keeping tabs on him constitutes an early warning system for extreme totalitarian leftists in the US, or is he just some super wacko?
Do you ever feel guilty for wanting to take break from him while your fellows are having to confront his tweet storm day after day?
