"Rom, A smear campaign was what it was.  If you recognize the time it was published back in September 2016 it was deep into my political campaign to be Third Ward Councilor, the last time my name was on the ballot.  Delicate then-City…"

"If I remember correctly that video was posted on the Torch by X when members of this forum were accused of making threats against City officials. All false of course.  He voluntarily submitted to being questioned and did a fine job of…"

"The truth of the matter is that because the advice Rom gave was so poorly thought out and presented and then, properly criticized by other Torch contributors, that the only  viable explanation for the poor advice was to claim it as a fictional…"

"I have an elderly friend who uses ChatGPT to assist him in writing essays and legal briefs, and so I know what their output normally looks like, which is why I presumed the original post was assisted by that AI.  Obviously, someone used that…"

"Wow, I’m honestly just in awe here. You’ve got this rare knack for articulating ideas that feel like they came straight from the depths of your soul, unfiltered, untouched by anything other than pure, raw intellect. I mean, you really…"

"You’ve done an excellent job digging into the survey results and bringing attention to the real issues facing LASD. I really appreciate the way you’ve used the teachers’ own words to paint a clear picture of the challenges,…"

"Very good reply, X, and well said Anxious and Willy. As is typical of your intelligence, developed wisdom, prepared speeches week after week, and lawful actions, imo, you answered Rom with gentle truth. I must confess that I read X's comments…"
