MMP's memory lapses are something I'm sure we're all familiar with by
now. But let us remember what else I just ably demonstrated: that back
in 2021 (when he was still hoping to recruit me as an ally) he
considered Possibilities one of "the best examples of poetry" on AAPC.

This deserves an underscore as an example of Michael Pendragon's biased

Indeed. I'm not sure if you remember that statement of his that I called
a statement of his editorial philosophy:

can't write." </q>

That also fully describes his critical philosophy. No more need be said,
but it can't be said often enough.

In the statement you are quoting, I was describing your behavior and
practices -- not mine.

As I told you at the time, that was also an example of projection on
your part; that you were in fact both slurping and publishing your
allies, and calling your perceived adversaries illiterates. As this
thread shows, you're still doing both.

IKYABWAI is neither an argument nor a rebuttal.

Nor does this thread show that I am doing anything of the sort.  FYI: I
have no "allies" here.  They've all left Usenet AAPC,

Good riddance.

Lying Michael

That's a given.

There was a reason why PJR referred to you and your allies as "Team
Dunce."

>
The same reason, I suspect, that you refer to Will and his alleged
allies as "Team Donkey". You do like to copy that old troll, Piggy Ross.

>

You view AAPC as "teams," and will support your untalented
teammates, while attacking your betters.

"Attacking your betters" sounds like you're copying Piggy Ross again.

That's Michael Pendragon, always the Peter Keating styled second hander.

Now, that's not true, Lying Michael.

No, Lying Michael, that is not true, either.

Why does Michael Pendragon lie and misrepresent so much?
