Yeah. If TFK has a strong social media presence we’ll end with a load of traffic. From very eager solicitors.

LONG BORING THEORY ABOUT SIDNEY
I have a fairly elaborate theory about @Sidney in fact. He was massively at war with himself. He projected the thoughts that he had but didn’t like onto @Lebane1917 and called him all the names of the day, effectively calling himself all those names. The more he could see the logic behind Labane’s position the more he was afraid of it so the fiercer his attacks had to become. The alternative was to just reconcile himself with that side of his personality but he refused to do that. His self-image since college as a socialist wouldn’t allow it. That self-image was carved in unyielding stone.
When Brett Kavanaugh got nominated to SCOTUS and Sid realised there was decent evidence that Ford changed some details of her story something cracked. He was too invested and it shattered his psyche and self-image irreparably. Brett Kavanaugh was the straw that broke the camal’s back. He quit TFK and launched the HBV twitter the same day. The demons that his mind had separated and denied from the rest of his psyche took over. He became his own nemesis, a bit like Spiderman turning into venom or something.
Medieval anti-semitism worked something similar. Peasants were told to be ashamed of their own greed. They denied it in themselves, projected it onto Jews instead and then hated the Jews for it.
Sidney has now been consumed by the far-right leanings that he tried to repress in himself. A split personality now consumed by the most evil of those personalities. He will run the HBV twitter account and win hordes of neo-nazi followers. He will use his new fascist fans to attack everything he once cherished. His psyche has been completely destroyed and there is no stopping him. He is in a dissociative state.
The old Sidney, our friend, is gone. His actions will inevitably escalate until he is leading naive young men to burn down halting sites in the middle of the night. He is a monster that must be stopped. The only hope is that old Sidney and new Sidney can somehow be merged or reconciled into some boring Mumsnet FFG voter and there is balance between the light side and dark sides of the force. I only hope he doesn’t burn down my caravan before that happens.
Hi @Sidney .
Definitely something to do with the judicial nomination there was no way back after that

Giving that a like for the effort put into it.
An awful sympathy like there
We need @anon25556527 back.
Close to the truth I think. The Kavanaugh debacle was definitely the final straw, he gambled his entire franchise on that issue only to be thwarted again by reason.
You managed to survive it yourself though, you cagey old codger.

A good Limerick GAA meltdown would have the place hoppin’. Our winter of content is no good for INTERNET forum bidness.
Your decision to go dark in the lead up to the All Ireland ruined the potential expansion of the franchise

It was THE critical moment of the 2018 AI SHC. Only for it there would be harrowing interviews with Graeme Mulcahy popping up now about how he has been living a nightmare since passing the ball to a Galway chap with a couple of minutes to go. On the plus side, TFK would be alive with both delight and self-loathing.

Ah it’s just that you’re so bland @Bandage didn’t notice you were here.
A bit of moderation? The place isn’t the same since @rocko took a back seat and handed the reins to a simpleton.
