[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I find it amusing that you’re more upset about the PP than the fact that these neo-Nazis have co-opted the phrase. I suppose it doesn’t actually bother you that much. [/quote]

Are they really coopting it if you’re the only one who thinks that? Or are you in effect coopting it for them?[/quote]

And reveling in your ignorance is a real hallmark of your classical education? Wouldn’t the right response be “wow if that’s true that would really suck and maybe I should look into it and determine if this is an issue”. Instead you just dismiss it. Clearly if it was true you don’t really care. [/quote]

What’s true? What exactly are you trying to claim? Because Milo blathered something about Gibbon, we all have to cancel the term “classical education”?[/quote]

I’m not the PP. I just think it’s amusing that it doesn’t seem to bother you in the least that “Milo” and his goons could have co-opted the phrase. You don’t even want to bother examining it, which is supposedly a hallmark of the education you claim to favor.  It suggests that even it was true it doesn’t make you that uncomfortable to be associated with it.

You are trying too hard. The word "fetch" comes to mind.[/quote]

You’re not trying hard enough. Ask the tiki torch people how it’s going. [/quote]

I have no idea who the "tiki torch people" are.[/quote]
