First and foremost, I find it strange that anyone would feel the need to operate under so many different names.

It's not strange, ask Patrick.

I don't understand. What does Patrick have to do with your use of aliases? How is Patrick more qualified than you to answer why you operate under multiple screen names?

Are you Patrick? (Eerie music playing in background).

That would be quite a plot twist!

Why should we tolerate bigotry and racism from the right with no recourse all directed at the electorate and the President.

We should not.

and yet it goes unpunished day in day out

hence my attitude towards said racists , bigots, white supremacists and 1%ers.

I disagree, I'd rather have the people that you label racists, bigots and others respecting the constitution and the rule of law amongst myself than people who are not classified as such but think they can trample all over the constitution and define what speech or point of views is tolerated and what is not and think the way people feel or think about something should be enforced by the mob and unconstitutional laws. You have the freedom of association who you surround yourself with, no need to terrorize people you don't like.

I put KarlScum on ignore this morning before I saw this discussion. I could not take his drivel any more.

Ignore really works.

Imagine the perception the new finder of patnet gets when they see underwaterdude and Roberto in their silly feud and KarlScum with his manic ranting.

HAHAHA i thought you said "what would be the fun in that?"

btw, CarlRoveIsCcum has no other aliases at this site, according to patrick's super complex algorithm. what happened to innocent until proven guilty?

let me get this straight, all you people ignoring KarlRoveIsScum are talking about him/her? Someone's got a crush!

Mark D says

It's pretty obvious that it's all the same person. He just knows how to use https://www.anonymizer.com/ and other similiar type of things.

Style of writing tells all.
It's relative easy to defeat the IP Address checker installed here which detects aliases..

Although I would actually defend Politicofact's right to use multiple aliases. As long as he does not camouflage his IP address so all can be recognized as coming from one person on this site.

Depending on the subject matter, and mood of the poster, multiple aliases can be a plus!

in fact, I'm musing over re-inventing a "King Crab" version of myself....

One of his multiple personalities, claimed he was a Lawyer.
I'd hate to have him defending me in a court of law.
He's snap and go off on the prosecution and have me thrown under the hoscow.

I'm ignoring the scumster. I deal with mental illness during the day so it would be like going to work if I were to play with him.

I do suspect that he is the poster who "dislikes" my every post, which is extremely childish. But if his comments are reflective of his level of emotional maturity, his propensity to hit "dislike" is his method of striking out when he has nothing to contribute.

Each time he reinvents himself (which seems to happen as often as he changes his underwear - monthly), I have to re-ignore him. Sometimes I play - and I know that I shouldn't, but it's like a train wreck where you cannot look away - but "ignore" is a lot easier.

But I'd rather sit at the grown-up table, where the discussions are reciprocal and people know how to spell.

I know many of you have Karl on "ignore," but if you were able to see his responses to these criticisms, I think you would find that he's handled them with surprising grace.

Karl.... Stay away from the dark side!

Dude you make ME look a senior editor at Random House.

Implement the use of the 'comma', and you got the job!

I get surprised by the amount of deletions that go on here. Its scary to think people want to streamline edit reality so what they say and what they present seems completely free from censure.

Has Karl been nuked?

donjumpsuit says

I blocked him this weekend. Couldn't do it anymore.

Can't say I'll miss his hysterics. Still now he'll have more time to take his meds.

You must have missed his responses to me. Not gracious at all, in fact I'd characterize them as childish tantrums.

He REALLY didn't care to be presented with facts, especially when they were so easy to find and directly undermined his hysterical rants.

Scum has deleted several posts of mine for no other reason than he didn't agree with the point of view expressed in them. In general I think he has delusions of grandeur mixed with limited communication skills.

APOCALYPSEFUCK is Shostakovich says

There are moments when this guy covers the index page. How's an artist like moi to cope?

Some say, if you can't beat um, join um!

But I wouldn't parse my lips in his direction to acknowledge him if I was bit and turned from the bite of a crazed neo-nazi, and his was the last scrap of edible subhuman flesh on this planet to feed my ravenous hunger.

The same day Margret Thatcher dies, KarlRoveIsScum gets nuked.
Coincidence? I think not!

More like delusions of adequacy.

donjumpsuit says

Personally, I came to this site for Patrick and folks opinions about the Real Estate Market.

Sans RobetoAribas (also ignored) who seems to feel like Phoenix is the center of the universe, I feel the discourse about Real Estate is fun, informative, and interesting.

I don't mind a opinionated views on GMO's and opening the occasional discussion about the specifics, but I work in that field as a Scientist. (like elliemae works in the crazy people field)

I don't really need to open this site on a Sunday Morning and find 4 (FOUR) replicate threads on the deadly dangers of GMO's and how they are ruining the world. The same threads that pop up every day for the past 3 weeks.

I also came to PatNet to hear opinions on the RE market. I am also a scientist and enjoy a spirited but informed debate. Its a great learning opportunity. I cannot however abide hysterical silliness when it comes to such an important topic as the safety of our food supply. Scaring people without just cause is dangerous. For a person who was so vocally opposed to Karl Rove and his modus operandi KRIS certainly emulated his master.

Oh you do just fine on your own.

Quigley says

Am I the only one who grows tired of this guy and his raging misinformed, yet egocentric and disingenuous posts?

The fact that you have 6 likes on this thread already shows the answer is a resounding no.

leo707 says

The thing that bothers me about KarlRoveIsScum is his/her strong reaction to anyone who disagrees, and an immediate reliance on insults. I believe this behavior to be almost entirely unproductive.

Perfectly summed up.

Call it Crazy says

It's been going on a while with this guy. He starts to rack up "ignores" then goes and creates another screen name. This is his fourth one in 5 months.

Why Patrick hasn't blocked his I.P. yet or allowed him to re-register with another screen name makes me wonder...

Which usernames?

I recently looked at the aliases for the KarlRoveIsScum account and found none. Now the account has been deleted.

On the other hand, the conviction could be overturned due to his incompetence.

Yep, that would do it.

Are you saying that Karl was Thatcher? The cross-dressing wouldn't surprise me, but Thatcher was articulated no matter what you think of her politics.

I put him on ignore a while ago, or wouldn't be able to tolerate PATNET. Reminded me of the crazy, shouting lunatics on Berkeley street corners that would never shut up. When the loudest screamer wins, everybody loses.
