The Atheism+ shills are still bombarding the web on any white space that’s available and still conning gullible web-zines and newspapers for free advertorials on the new, improved brand of snake oil. Building a bogus presence that is somehow representative of the greater community out of snappy soundbites and flatulent wind.
Whilst the chumps at these journals may fall for the hogwash by abdicating editorial responsibility, and the laziness of not creating genuine content instead of relying on cheap filler, the unfortunate and very visible reality is that the greater community is now far more capable of spotting cheap confidence tricksters and is refusing to buy into it at all. And the really grim reminders of reality are found in the oddest of places, such as UrbanDictionary…
On September 3rd, someone posted an entry, rather accurate if snide, of Atheism+. It took the subnormals at Atheism+ over a month to notice and react in the all to familiar manner –
VOTE DOWN this hateful URBAN DICTIONARY entry

Self-explanatory. Go get ’em. ‘Cause that’s non-“non-existent” misogyny.

Better still, put up a REAL definition!
And further on, there is the same old and tired call to arms –

Definitely vote down. We need wide spread vote-down activism on this.
Which was followed by the again old and tired Twitter and blog bombing. And the results a month later? They speak for themselves –
.
It can be seen that the baboonketeers did indeed post their own version of a definition based on BlogHog’s euphoric proclamations of victory prior to mania and depression swapping places and her skulking off in a pity flounce. But the results do indeed speak for themselves – especially how closely the down votes for the original entry mirror the up votes for the ideologically correct version. Further instructions from the Atheism+ forums also need to be noted –

Worth mentioning that it looks like voting can be done daily. Probably how it has so many votes to begin with.
.
So even with the cheating, as was readily seen in Stefanny Zwan’s Let’s Lynch Vacula petition, the end result, also like Zwan’s petition, is pretty fucking dismal – so feeble they can’t even meaningfully impact UrbanDictionary’s voting system…
What is evident is that despite the huffing and puffing and stamping of Birkenstocked feet, Atheism+ shows itself for what it is – a pale shadow of the campus identity politic ghettos of decades past. All noise, zero substance. The graphic I made, half in jest, is yet again proving itself to be a clearer snapshot than the nonsense spewing from the various baboon boards of freefromthoughtblogs, Skepchick and Atheism+ itself. It’s all a charade to mislead the stupid. Thankfully, it seems to be dwindling more and more by the day.
There is a curious side note to all of this. The author of the original, and accurate, definition above – one Oolon_Colluphid. Attentive readers will recognise that nick – it is the same wannabe toilet slave that yaps around the heels of the more noxious of the FfTB entities, and can frequently be found poisoning other blogs with his own special brand of baboon propaganda and disinformation. One should not assume the Oolon was the author – far too much clarity for a start. Rather it was someone’s idea of making a funny, and I think most appropriate.
Oolon is also the same slug that has recently been sighted trying to ingratiate himself with the Slimepit as some kind of voice of reason and moderation between the ‘pit and the A+ professional victim brigade (in between reporting back to his FfTB masters) – with very little success. See Oolon in his true form below – obsequiously grovelling on the A+ forum denying any connection with the UD definition bearing his name –
Hello, I’m oolon
by oolon » Wed Oct 31, 2012 6:47 pm
Been lurking a little, thought I’d better say hello. I’m a cis white male from the UK, I live in Longparish, UK, near Andover.
I’ve just posted a Halloween story from my childhood, all true, http://www.oolon.co.uk/?p=56 . I would put on the ‘promote your blog’ section but I’d barely call it a blog, I work in IT so writing anything other than dry technical specifications does not come easily to me!
Disclosure, I am a little argumentative, in fact I had second thoughts about joining here since it is meant to be a safe space. So if I’m being annoying on a thread just tell me to shut up and I’ll go away, honest
![]()
On that subject a clarification… I saw there has been a little discussion on the Slymepit and elsewhere that I may be this oolon
-> http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.p … ism%20Plus
I’m not, any more than I was this oolon
-> http://freethoughtblogs.com/greta/2012/ … ying-cunt/oolon is a common nym, so I’ll only own up to comments that link to oolon.co.uk. Until the trolls copy that too
Err and yeah – I do post on the Slymepit sometimes – not to hate on anyone, not even the Slymepitters.
Nauseating innit? Here’s an amusing little cartoon snippet of how I view this Oolon thing –
November 6, 2012 at 10:15 pm
Hehe I thought this side of the argument ascribed to the ‘Don’t feed the trolls’ mantra while my glorious masters at FtBs think tackling trolls is a pretty good idea… Especially when they spew crap like Felchy here. Naughty franc!
Anyway, couple of things… “trying to ingratiate himself with the Slimepit” … So by being what the pitters describe as a ‘tedious troll’ and ‘slimy turd’ I am ingratiating myself with the Slimepit! Yeah I suppose given franc’s social skills this is probably an easy mistake to make so I’ll give you that.
I see myself as a ‘Voice of Reason’…. Well more reasonable than franc, but that really is not hard. I would think my ‘sig’ on the Slymepit would give away most of my intention in posting there, which I stole from the pit’s headline a while back… ‘Oolon on the Slymepit: “Not Hating You – Just Laughing At You”‘
… I think it was mean’t to be applied the other way around to FtBs. Thing is not all FtB’ers are humourless ‘feminazis’ or ‘drones’ etc. like some on the Pit like to assert 😉
November 6, 2012 at 10:27 pm
Who’s feeding trolls? Just highlighting how you lick toilets clean for your masters.
November 6, 2012 at 11:28 pm
I’d hate to look like the Voice of Reason or anything but surely my well documented Toilet Duck addiction is irrelevant to any validity or otherwise in points I may make in the atheist-sceptic community?
I’m sure you’ll correct me if I’m wrong, but wouldn’t that qualify as an ‘ad hominem’? I thought a sceptic of your long standing and reputation would avoid logical fallacies… Especially when any such slip from Rebecca Watson or any other bete noire of yours gets slated for a similar offence. What is sauce for the Hoggle is also sauce for the Oolon 😀
November 6, 2012 at 11:51 pm
Goto => * – lather, rinse, repeat.
November 6, 2012 at 11:56 pm
Not an ad hominem at all. For it to be an ad hominem, the insult must come in place of an argument. Franc has plenty of arguments.
The insults are free. Think of them as decoration if you want.
November 7, 2012 at 12:41 am
More like anchovies on a pizza. Not the main meal, but a delicious shiver or a wrinkle of disgust. Depends on the palate.
November 6, 2012 at 11:56 pm
You can’t wait until your own brand of bullshit is on the brink of obsolescence before attempting to build bridges with the “other”. That is to compound cowardice with tyranny.
They called you a troll? oh, the horror… I BET you can still post, though 😀
Better than you deserve, by half.
November 7, 2012 at 1:56 am
>>>>”Thing is not all FtB’ers are humourless ‘feminazis’ or ‘drones’ etc. like some on the Pit like to assert”
Assuming that’s true, the moment they dare to challenge established dogma, even slightly, they’ll end up like Thunderf00t.
November 7, 2012 at 12:01 am
Oolon is an interesting one. He’s usually got his mangina hat on, but he also got himself banned from Pissy Myers’ blog for not being radfem enough.
November 7, 2012 at 4:41 am
Well PZ likes his toilet slaves like me to be frothing at the mouth more, its to do with the extra-strong Domestos cleaner he uses – guaranteed to scour away 99% of Hoggle-shit. Unfortunately I have ideological objections to the environmental impact of using such strong methods. Also it irritates the back of my throat, as I say above Toilet Duck is much better.
November 7, 2012 at 2:07 am
Hahahahahaha!
That is absolutely PERFECT!
I’ve loved that toon since I first saw it over 50 years ago and it so perfectly describes that waste of carbon atoms oolon that it almost seems meant for him.
He is clearly a provocateur for PZussy’s cult and he does his slimy work quite well.
I’ve watched as he slithers into site after site and takes up different positions in any discussion then changes those positions to keep derailing the main post. I’ve seen him change sides with such blistering speed one is left with the realization that at no time has this horrible scum ever desired to do anything more than scream “LOOK AT ME!!!!”
He’s worse than old, greasy gum stuck to the bottom of your shoe: no matter how many time you show him clearly lying and changing his position, he’ll scream “Where?” and change YET AGAIN. You try to get away from such disgusting filth, but like the gum, he just stretches out of shape and some of his filth stays, no matter how vigorously you try to scrap the shit off.
Pretty much like any “modern” feminist I’ve met, actually.
And I prepare for the typical oolon onslaught, as you so accurately described it:
Goto => lather, rinse, repeat.
November 7, 2012 at 4:30 am
I’ve missed you Strakh, why are you not over at the Slymepit or leaving your little droppings all over FtBs? I thought you were maybe just a Thunderf00t poster, but I’m glad to see you get about a bit more 🙂
November 7, 2012 at 5:22 am
Fuck you, you disgusting shit.
I dismissed you for the pure sycophantic shit you are long ago.
You really are exactly what Franc has called you.
Now, you fucking vile piece of vomit:
Goto => lather, rinse, repeat.
November 7, 2012 at 5:47 am
This is why I’ve missed you so much, you say the nicest things! You’d fit in just fine over at the A+ forum, I’ll blow you a big kiss when I see you. Love Oolon x.
November 7, 2012 at 7:08 am
I think Ooooooooolon is one of the few things on this planet that googles itself more than Benson.
November 7, 2012 at 7:46 am
Google myself? What does that even mean!
November 7, 2012 at 8:46 am

Wow. Ooolon’s link is more honest than you’d expect.

I was excited to cast the 5000th vote (up) for the first definition at Urban Dictionary! Hoping to get lucky and cast the 5000th vote (down) for the second definition, also.
November 21, 2012 at 6:35 am
The gap contains to widen:
are frauds: 5880 (+585) up, 1619(+62) down
are fluffy bunnies: 1477(+62) up, 5347(+564) down
Looks like there are only 62 sycophants or less for the A+ still bothering.
