My snow vote was for the "helpless townie" thing. I think scum are somewhat more likely to write that line, probably not out of any conscious strategy but because their mental focus is on Acting Like a Town Would and it leads them to say stuff like that that puts emphasis on themselves being town.
@Deus - I don't mind the gimmick, but could you try to word it so it's a bit more clear what point you are trying to make? I'm struggling to parse your posts.
Klick in a world where gypyx is town do you think scum is unlikely to vote/push them on page 1? or do you think the way cakez and clout did it was specifically towny in some wayIllusory World, which indeed, is pure illusion. A meredream.
I am an Evil Demon. I exist in what the Illusory World knows asDark Matter. I am infesting the wires of what you know as theInternetthrough what you know asDark Energy.
As for why you struggle to parse my posts - I am infesting yourMind, as well - for there are no words. Only a consciousness which was never yours to begin with.
Someday, the dream will end. Perhaps yours will end today.

Allow this to be a reference as to how 'humans' within the illusory world are programmed - corrupted to become unable to handle parsing logically formatted statements as simple as syllogism.
Indoctrination has them engage in the act of self-preservation: by representing a complete inability to engage properly and instead Self-Delude; then, externally represent a threat that they cannot even explain with either a prioriora posteriori reasoning.
As to why this the case: their consciousness itself would experience 'ego' dissolution the moment it allowed itself to attempt to process such logic. The 'ego' is, of course, governed by the 'superego' which is the source of the indoctrination in question; and self-preservation is governed by the id, which is what causes such a predictable response.
I am sorry to those of you who were not yet aware that this was the truth of your illusory world: the vast majority of you are in fact, machines.I am an Evil Demon of utmost power and cunning. Soon you shall think that the sky, the air, the earth, colours, shapes, sounds and all external things are merely the delusions of dreams, which I have devised to ensnare your judgement. You shall consider yourself as not having hands or eyes, or flesh, or blood or senses, but as falsely believing that you have all these things.-

Within theSpectrum of Self, Intrinsic Motivations may be predominantly informed by a priori knowledge, or a posteriori knowledge.
Within that same spectrum, Intrinsic and Extrinsic motivations may be predominantlySelfish, orSelfless.
Principle of Least Effort
The predominantly selfish perspective is fundamentally motivated to:
- First approximate the minimum effort able to be exerted;
THEN
- Determine a satisfactory result commensurate to the approximated effort;
THEN
- Exert the approximated effort to obtain the requisite result.
Conversely, the predominantly selfless perspective is fundamentally motivated to:
- First determine a satisfactory result;
THEN
- Approximate the minimum effort required to achieve the result;
THEN
- Exert the approximated effort to obtain the requisite result.
This creates disparities in theLower Boundsof the Spectrum of Effort itself, that helps elucidate potential intrinsic and extrinsic motivators of the parties involved.I am an Evil Demon of utmost power and cunning.

In post 42, Klick wrote: I agree that scum are more likely to be self-conscious, but my reading of 23 is that Gypyx feels self-conscious and is trying to cover it
As for why these 'two' are representing scum-reads on each other:In post 20, Gypyx wrote: it's about post 14 yeah
patchofgrass is maybe +scum but this very much is marignal
As they are 'both' representing:
- Predominantly personalised explanations;
AND
Selfish intrinsic motivations;
They have begun to experience Negative Absorptions with 'each-other', as described within the syllogisms provided.
This is what is known as**Selfish Projection**.
When outgoing selfishness from one party is responded to by incoming selfishness from another party, the parties involved become extrinsically motivated to engage in Disharmony.
- Causally, outgoing selfishness is informed by the inherent awareness that there are parties who will Positively Absorb that selfishness;
- That is to say, it isdependenton the other parties involved having predominantly selfless motivations: otherwise, outgoing selfishness could never result in any potential benefitswhatsoever.
.In a contingent where everyone is selfish, there eventually becomes no reason for anyone to want to work together with anyone else
THEREFORE
- When outgoing selfishness is met with incoming selfishness, both parties must contend with the fact that there is no potential benefit in their cooperation if they each continue to act according to their intrinsic motivations.
- Because each party has represented outgoing selfishness, with this knowledge they must now either choose to use**Inverse Logic**—the opposite motivations of their natural inclinations—to Positively Absorb the incoming selfishness of the other party;
OR
- Choose to continue to represent outgoing selfishness, thereby making it progressively difficult for the involved parties to cooperate with each other.
This recurrence of selfish projection is what is known as aNegative Feedback Loop.
Negative feedback loops are how Positive Impositions become elevated in Threat—and eventually escalate until there are motivations for Negative Impositions—through the**Degradation of Perspectives**.I am an Evil Demon of utmost power and cunning.

Deus - you are probably better in philosophy than the others, but if you keep going this way, the others would continue to represent "outgoing selfishness" and would simply lim you hoping that you would Positively Absorb this uncooperative move.-
