Excavating Pure Evil — Failed New York Actor Carl Salonen Revealed as 'Tintin' at Sadly No!??

Take a few minutes to listen to this PJTV segment. Dr. Helen Smith interviews Barbara Oakley and Amy Alkon. The former has a new book out called Cold-Blooded Kindness: Neuroquirks of a Codependent Killer, or Just Give Me a Shot at Loving You, Dear, and Other Reflections on Helping That Hurts. And she's also the editor of Pathological Altruism, the thesis of which forms the basis for much of the discussion. Also interviewed is Amy Alkon. She's an author and a blogger at The Advice Goddess.

Especially interesting is the discussion, about a third of the way through, of Sadly No!'s attack on Alkon, which included a campaign of fake book reviews at her Amazon book page, as well as earlier allegations that she's a transsexual (Tintin at Sadly No! slurs her as Amy Arnold Alkon). This apparently became quite involved, and included a defacement of Alkon's Wikipedia entry (obviously by the "Sadly Nauts" but denied by Tintin). At the clip, the PJTV techs display a picture from Sadly No!'s post, "The “Lady” Doth Protest Too Much, Methinks." It's interesting that Alkon herself claims to be an independent, and thinks that "both sides do this." But there are key differences, as she notes in a blog post:

These are leftists, all these losers, and while I'm neither left nor right (I'm fiscally conservative and socially libertarian), it's my experience that people on the right will tell me they think I'm an idiot right to my face or openly, on a blog (because I was against the Iraq war, for example), while the left has resorted to denigrating me by trying to hurt my livelihood. And they do it anonymously.

And then, there's the manner in which they do it, by using transsexuality in hopes of derogating me. Who has a harder time in this world than somebody who's born one sex and feels very strongly they're another? They're using this to put me down? Ugly. And they're the left?
Alkon identifies Tintin as a "a 52-year-old unsuccessful actor in New York City named Carl Salonen ..." (And she slams the folks at Sadly No! as a bunch of "sick fuck adult losers.")

Interestingly, notice how Barbara Oakley doesn't hesitate to place these fuckers in the historic pantheon of history's most diabolical killers.

In any case, I'm glad I took the time to watch this clip, because boy was this like a treasure trove of information on the true lies of the progressive left, and especially the progressive thugs at Sadly No!

I'm not done with this. Because some claim that Sadly No! is a European blog --- no doubt to avoid lawsuits --- it's possible that Tintin's entire enterprise is based on lies and deceit. But I need more information. (And maybe I'm slow on the uptake here, but there's no way a Belgian blogger would have that degree of U.S. knowledge and American parochialism, so again, this PJTV clip has been quite a revelation.)
