BrianKrebs@kennzaney1 I especially liked: "He turns being artless into an art form; he is a Picasso of pettiness; a Shakespeare of shit. His faults are fractal: even his flaws have flaws, and so on ad infinitum"
Daniel@briankrebs @kennzaney1 yes I liked that part, too. All in all the description seems accurate.
Ryan Fisher"There is never any under-layer of irony, complexity, nuance or depth. It’s all surface. .. We see it as having no inner world, no soul."
This is the description that resonates with my perception of him and drives the existential dread of what to do if he gains any power ever again. He is just a personal-power seeking P-zombie. Completely unaware, un-self-aware.
Book@wryanfisher @briankrebs @kennzaney1 Good point, well made. Now imagine someone else with the same scruples but with a mind to use them effectively.
Fuck.
@briankrebs @kennzaney1 The two things I most noted from that piece were:
1) It was written in a hurry; a stream of consciousness. Well-written, sure, but could have been *extra*.
2) The prick was holding back.
Gord@briankrebs @kennzaney1 If that isn't in his NYT obit, then they're doing a disservice to the English language.
