    Can you send me a vial of your semen so I can continue your bloodline after your death? I think the world needs someone like Kalifacation in it at all times.

    Historical materialism is plainly wrong. It's empirically incorrect, and as it's a theory of history, that makes it objectively and totally incorrect. Marx created communism as a prediction, and his prediction has failed to materialize. It was never intended to be an organized ideological movement, and as one it has failed utterly in its pursuit of a classless society. If Marx was correct, then the conditions of 19th century capitalism would have produced an international communist revolution. His understanding of society was far too simple and far too grand to ever possibly work. Classism is an illegitimate worldview that provides answers only retroactively, and even then, only after tailoring the situation to a level that suits those beholden to it. The world, and people, are far too complex to be understood along such disgustingly materialistic lines. I think Marx probably recognized that, but he certainly didn't address it.

    If you could change one thing in the US, what would it be?

    If you could change one thing in the world as a whole, what would it be?

    How do you believe the universe was created?

    There should be a societal/legal mechanism by which I receive free money.
    Force all those yuropoors to recognize the greatness of Uncle Sam, I guess.
    Very suddenly.

    I think the prevelence of your fast food restaurants over here, and the size of your military, attest to that already being the case.

    Whether or not I am an American is beyond your concern.
    In any case, even if I were, that alone would not mean that I am a native speaker of the English language.

    My use of the English language has rarely, if ever, failed to enable me to convey either information or ideas. Beyond that, I have never had a qualified instructor on the subject of the English language (or anybody else outside of this forums for that matter) complain with your consistency about my use of the English language. Indeed, many have complimented me on my skill in the English language and I can assure you that they are likely to be far more qualified in that assessment.
    I am not the best, but I am certainly not as low as you seek to drag me.

    No it's not. And it's not like you're fooling anyone. It's unbelievably easy to see through.
    As a non-Spanish-speaking US citizen, it's very unlikely that you're not a native speaker. Additionally, though you fail to speak naturally, you know how to do so.
    Like this bullshit right here; no native speaker would ever say this. It's just a bunch of inane, pretentious, babble that serves to do nothing but ostracize you from the correct usage of language.
    Probably because you're in high school. Your teachers likely don't care that you abuse the language so badly, since you're clearly trying so hard to look intelligent. I doubt they're so hopelessly misguided as to think that you're actually doing things correctly, though.
    If they compliment you, it's because they're used to seeing the illiterate scribblings of their brain dead pupils. After weeks upon weeks of seeing "Your going too the pool Sally?", "Beyond that, I have never had a qualified instructor on the subject of the English language (or anybody else outside of this forums for that matter) complain with your consistency about my use of the English language," probably looks good. Of course, the depth of their problem is infinitely more shallow than yours.
    You butcher this language in a way that few can. As a teacher, I'd take ten of the illiterate students before I take you, because illiteracy is problem I can reasonably expect to solve. I've said it many times before, but you cannot hope to correct mistakes that you don't recognize, and you fail so completely and utterly to recognize your mistakes because you think that projecting your self-image is dependent upon making them.

    I personally would love an English instructor because I butcher the crud out of the English language. So far no one I have ever asked has helped me in my quest to better my English skills.

    No matter how hard that might be.

    Fine.

    I have no qualms about admitting that your control of the English language is far better than my own, nor that I obviously make many mistakes in my writing.

    If you think it necessary to continue to correct my use of the English language (assuming that you are right in any of the instances that you do so), parhaps I should use this as a learning oppertunity.

    I only ask that you stop poking your nose into areas of my life that in no way concern you and cease to make assumptions for which you have little, if any, proof. Or proof which I know that you illicitly handed out when you had neither the right nor the authority, regardless of whether that proof was real or not.

    Besides that, I have a question for you:
    Why do you care?
    To be clear:
    Why on G-d's green Earth do you care what I do?

    I have a feeling that your answer will run along the lines that you feel obligated to correct others or to point out inadequacies in others to make them seem less than they are (or you are). Or parhaps that you simply feel that (as you are under the impression that I act smarter than I actually am) you must make me feel and remain in whatever station you believe that I belong in your vision of the world.

    I keep my information to myself for several reasons.
    I don't mind people asking, so long as they maintain some semblance of civility and respect.
    I just don't put it out there for people to view on a whim.
    If someone earns the right, then I have no qualms about telling them information.

    I might also mention that I never intended to say much about my personal life as it would likely and has repeatedly been proven to be (for other people) detrimental to their positions on the forums.
    Basically: Some people on this forums complain about ad hominem, but they still use it.

    And for the record, I am not as close-mouthed about it as people make out. Or at least, I didn't used to be.

    Regarding my location:
    Kali had another profile before called Kalaification (which the users of this forums shortened to Kali before or during the time that I was settling in). Kalaification was a moderator of the forums. Under this authority, he searched my IP, presumably to ensure that I was not a multi-accout (though my understanding is that it was not a problem at the time). He, at some point, allegedly gave my location away to member(s) of the forums who asked through the use of PMs due to my refusal to his demands reveil it. He later abruptly and allegely without cause or reason, abandoned his post and departed the forums.
    During his tenure as a moderator, he accused me of committing a multi-account violation and persuaded Stalin to ban me. However, the new user profile in question did not belong to me and the user kindly proved that she was not a multi of me (as far as the internet enables one to). Kali had taken it upon himself to inform me that I was banned, but did not apologize for the action taken when I was unbanned or even inform me that I was unbanned. At the time, I was actually out of town and the entire event started and ended before I even returned. Needless to say that I was very confused when I logged in.
