Re: Steve Jobs Dead.

psychologist call it Deflection

Emotional Deflection:

Deflection is ignoring or turning away either an internal or external emotional trigger in order to prevent full recognition or awareness of associated material...e.g., painful memories.Characterized in Gestalt Psychology either by blocking the trigger itself or by turning oneself away and going off on a tangent.
Persons often deflect from their feelings and impulses by endless talking...by laughing instead of taking themselves seriously...or by always focusing on the needs of the other.
Other examples of deflection include:

• Changing the subject repeatedly when a particular issue is raised (ChuckC)
• Appearing not to hear or see something
• Misunderstanding or redefining what has been said or done (Florida,Reso,Highsteppa, ClintLove)

Re: Steve Jobs Dead.

did you find yourself Chuck on the list?

You are

Changing the subject repeatedly when a particular issue is raised

You are talking about getting me banned and not talking about the issue of JObs legacy as a slave driver. This isn't abut me. It is about Jobs being dead and being a slave driver in his time on earth

Re: Steve Jobs Dead.

so now I'm a radical baptist because I informed you that High Priest Jobs is really a slave driver?

Re: Steve Jobs Dead.

Re: Steve Jobs Dead.

^^Don't Kamal's super powers work over international borders ?? Cos the internet does.


I'm not arguing the subject matter in Rm's post because we all know they are purely to do what he has done here, troll!! He makes grandiose statements with the slightest element of truth to allow if to gain the maximum attention. Yes RM we do know it is really all about you We also know the truth is a very distant acquaintance of yours !!

I don't like him here, but I do understand why he hasn't been banned. Strangely enough he is a perfect example of why the right of freedom of speech is a total crock In this case he uses it to say whatever bullshit, defamatory garbage he can think of to get attention. And that is just what it is, attention seeking and unfortunately it works. It is probably the only thing he is actually good at. Overcompensation much . ?? Unfortunately being a pathetic, boring , obnoxious, little attention seeking twat isn't necessarily enough to get banned.

However, doing what he did by misrepresenting the site and leaving it open to claims of fraud etc. most definitely is!!

Btw I think pms can sometimes be very helpful in releasing tensions without disturbing the rest of the community. Just sayin

Re: Steve Jobs Dead.

well i guess the media is making jobs out to be alot nicer then i thought....i dont really know much about him or his history but just watched an old movie from 1999 on tbs called pirates of silicon valley...and they sure make jobs out to be a slave driver and jerk who degrades and puts down his staff, makes them work 90+hours a week and shows him never in his young daughters life....its a movie so who knows what is truth or not.. but regardless RM choice of words was still very inappropriate.

Re: Steve Jobs Dead.

^^ I saw an interview with his biographer who has known him for the last thirty years and,as is usually the case, Steve Jobs was a combination of all those things. We need to be big enough to see the complete picture.

Just for the record I am the last person who is going to say don't speak ill of the dead! If they deserve it , speak away. But credit where credit due as well !!

i bet he's riding around in that big ol' truck with the stars and bars in the front and the missus in the passenger seat. just out there conquering everything he sees.

also RIP Jobs. I will never own an Apple product, nor do I desire to. But the man stood for the ideals i believe in. He created and produced great things...he was not a destroyer of value.
