You forgot to mention “stinky-footed bumpkins”. Otherwise, as self-commentary, this could scarcely be improved upon.
You need to get with the programme, if you want to join the club. They all think that we know what they didn’t say, through knowing all they did say.
This, by the way, is incorrect: “Your statement is based on the standard orthodox lie that we have ANY of the words they said.” No such connection exists. My statement is based on recognising the presuppositions of such a statement as this: “Yet had not one word to say about their construction”—which include what you call “the standard orthodox lie”.
