The Dickinson Press banned me over a month ago. I was commenting on nearly every column because they’re all full of disinformation.
Well, one columnist, Jim
Shaw did a column today on his readers’ comments. And after including the idolatry of his ignorant readers, he moves on to deal with criticism.
Here is a link to the article
https://www.thedickinsonpress.com/opinion/columns/shaw-just-chatting-with-the-readers
Here are the adoring remarks from his readers. We don’t even know whether these are real readers, agents, or bots. It’s impossible to be sure nowadays.
From Roxana: “You’re a courageous warrior for the truth. Thank you for fighting the good fight. You’re a treasure to the community.”
From David: “Love your column, your wit, and all that you do! My mom does as well!”
From Pamela: “I look forward to your columns. You continue to enlighten and engage. Thanks so much, and keep your columns coming!”
From Kent: “Keep up the good fight. We need honest, clear-eyed truth tellers like you now, more than ever.”
He actually pulled up not one, but two of my comments. But he couldn’t even do that honestly. I comment under the name James Hunter and GRC8VKGZK
First, he didn’t post my full first comment.
Second, he left out that I was responding to a woman commenter on his column; I wasn’t even responding to him.
Third, he believes that not owning a television, not listening to the radio, being banned from social media, and not reading newspapers make you “uninformed.”
Fourth, his response is taken from another reader, equally deceived, who responded to my comment.
Fifth, the likes and dislikes are likely engineered by bots. Any conservative comment is massively downvoted, and comments that are Democrat or communist friendly are massively upvoted, without rational explanations for the likes or dislikes.
Linda’s comment, which I responded to, received 32 likes and 12 dislikes. My comment received seven likes and 16 dislikes. The guy who responded to me, saying I’m uninformed, received 11 likes and three dislikes.
Here is the article on which my first comment appeared.

Here was my abbreviated comment Jim Shaw quoted:
“ “Mao and Lenin were talking about love and inspiration…As for me, I’ve never owned a television, don’t listen to the radio, am banned on all social media and don’t read newspapers.”
Here was my entire comment: “ Mao and Lenin were talking about love and inspiration too.
And women were heavily deceived by them too.
Where do you get your propaganda from, I’d like to know.
As for me, I’ve never owned a television, don’t listen to radio, am banned on all major social media, and don’t read newspapers.”
Here is the comment I was responding to, by a woman named Linda Schumacher:
“It was a great day. The thing that is the most clear about that rally was how it scared the Trumpies. The idea that the people might not like the guy is too much for them. The Felon’s approval ratings stand at about 38% meaning he isn’t terribly popular.
As it becomes more clear through unemployment numbers, the inflation rate (both are rising) he is going to be less popular.
But Magats are too dense to get it.”
Here was another reader’s response to my comment, which could have been a bot. Some guy named Randy Walvatne, I’ve commented for two months and had never seen his name before, a sign it’s a possible bot.
“Wow- then you are quite uninformed.”
Next, Jim quotes another of my comments before I was banned entirely, “From GRC8VKGZK (after my column about Donald Trump shamefully eliminating research funding to many colleges, in the name of fighting antisemitism): “J’s (Jews) control the Federal Reserve. That means they have unlimited money and control the media.”
This is his response: Dear GRC8VKGZK, I take it your job with the Anti-Defamation League did not go well.
Now let’s think about this. Why does he take the ADL seriously, when they not only have a history of lying, but they began to defend a convicted child rapist and murderer? And he thinks this is some kind of joke? For those who don’t understand the history of the ADL, Unz Review has a great article, “The ADL in American Society.”
Also, why didn’t he respond to the factual claim that the Jews own the Federal Reserve and control the media?

Mr. Shaw’s response is another demonstration of why the media and influencers often don’t respond to criticism. When they do, it’s very easy to critique and recognize it as fallacious and foolish.
