There is a triggered bitter old man who is emitting angry clown-farts all over this thread. It's quite humorous.
humorous?

i don`t see you laughing.

maybe because schadenfreude is a trait you exhibit while being unaware you possess the attributes that engender such an poisonous affliction.

One place where I am admittedly not an expert is psychotherapy.
you can view my above sentence regarding your condition as the first lesson/treatment in your on-going recovery

You word salad is getting smaller mate, running out of vegetables?

in a way you`re right but terms like narcissist are a few treatments down the line.

Prof.@verreauxi needs to be slowly coaxed into the shallow end as his ego is so fragile the shock could be lavatorial.
 
Had never heard of this guy, until the recent court case, but have been reading up on him.

Has a massive YouTube channel, but seems like he was putting it across to his subscribers that he was gonna ’have his day in court‘ against the BBC and others, implying he was taking them to court, all while he’d been charged with over a dozen stalking-type offences.

He canvassed for funds for his court case, getting hundreds of thousands of quids, then ended up defending himself, not taking the stand, trousering the money, but will now have to wait to spend it, after getting a 5 year custodial sentence.

Another one for the trolling, culture war obsessed, grifter pile.

Very grim, guess he calculated he was in deep anyhow so a custodial for a non violent offence (i think) so he'll do 2 years tops. All that crowd funding could be quite the little earner. Its a comment on the entire system that hes lied his way into a prison cell and its paid off better than if he'd remained free and working.

Wow, quite a read. Good to see trolls and cons getting their comeuppance.
 
modern science, medicine, technology etc is still in its infancy

to say you are an "expert" is like a 5yr old who has just learned to write claiming to be a proficient author.

discoveries in science/technology are immediately pounced on by Corporations for commercialism - note- electric lightbulbs, water powered cars etc

your field of "expertise" is for sale, manipulated and silenced. science has been prostituted.

we live in the Industrial/Engineering age but for all intents and purposes we are still hunter gatherers. we`ve barely moved on and have little more to show for it than 60 inch wall mounted tellys.
your modern science still hasn`t figured out how or why the Pyramids were built.

you haven`t got a clue as to any expertise i may or may not have. you are ignorant.
I'm still laughing at the daft comment that we are for all intents and purposes hunter gatherers.
I can't think of the last time I went out foraging or hunting Woolly Mammoths with the lads.
The advancements in medical science and computing technology alone has been completely transformative from my grandparents generation to now and as such we live very different lives.
@verreauxi is in your head

Yeah, the grift works well enough, with enough people willing to put their hand in their pockets. The fella seems genuinely disturbed and obsessive, and got himself into trouble he could have easily avoided. He’ll probably have groups who’ve been hanging on his every word, who’ll be happy to give him their hard earned once he’s out.

There's something in this, its becoming more apparent that a lot of people feel lost, and are snared by easy answers and hate that lines up with their respective certain views. Its for another thread. I'll add, 'blame culture' to that equation. Grim.

Haha...There has been so much projectile vomiting when those six neurons get to firing that I couldn't keep up with all his posts. I missed the "we are still hunter-gatherers" bit, which is an old trope of internet logic-bros who have read a bastardized version of human evolution by a non-expert, and then think we should all be consuming only wild boar and tubers.
