Imaginary ‘Rights’ You Don’t Have, You Sad and Disgusting Troll, Bill Schmalfeldt

Bill Schmalfeldt: Somewhere, a carnival is missing its sideshow freak

“Schmalfeldt is forever burning bridges behind him as he careens from disaster to disaster caused by his antisocial personality. He never accepts responsibility for his failures, always externalizing blame onto his scapegoated enemies.”
— Robert Stacy McCain, Feb. 20

“The State of Maryland has answered you, Mr. Schmalfeldt. It has told you: No, John Hoge does not have to answer your questions or read your statements, however you choose to deliver them. Not in tweets, nor in any other way. Maryland has answered your questions, sir. It has gathered up your statements. The authority you like to claim — in imperatives to others — has now been turned on you.”
— Becca Lower, “Bill Schmalfeldt, You Must”

Life is not fair. Some people have necks and some people don’t and — rather than seeking gainful employment as a carnival sideshow attraction — The Amazing Neckless Troll Man seems to be under the impression that his problems are our fault. He is wrong, as usual.

Saturday, while I was busy working on a 2,000-word article about Edward Snowden for ViralRead, Bill Schmalfeldt showed up in the comments of two Friday posts — “Peace Order Against Bill Schmalfeldt: A Defeat for the ‘Troll Rights’ Movement” and “Hoge’s Victory Lap” — in an apparent effort to win in the court of public opinion what he could not win in the Circuit Court of Carroll County, Maryland: The right to use the Internet to harass people he hates.

If all of Schmalfeldt’s comments have not yet been deleted, they will be, and I offer apologies to all our commenters who now, because of the disappearance of Schmalfeldt’s comments, may appear to have been arguing with someone who is not actually there. And, let’s face it: Bill Schmalfeldt hasn’t been “all there” in a long, long time.

Attempting to convince a madman that he is out of his mind is a hopeless task, and it’s best not to encourage Schmalfeldt in the delusion that he has anything to say that any sane person is obligated to notice, much less bothering to refute the kook. Nevertheless, here’s part of the “argument” Schmalfeldt made in one of his comments:

It’s actually quite humorous, the responses I’ve gotten. And quite revealing about your nature and your temperament. . . . You’ve been told I’m crazed and evil, therefore I am crazed and evil and that’s the end of the discussion. I deserve to be defamed and mocked with dishonestly cropped pictures.

“Dishonestly cropped pictures.” The loss of self-awareness indicated by that complaint speaks diagnostic volumes about the nature of Schmalfeldt’s derangement. Perhaps it is unnecessary to remind readers of what Bill Schmalfeldt once did with a photo of Sarah Palin:

Schmalfeldt created that Photoshop of Palin bleeding with a stake through her forehead to illustrate a post he wrote under his “Bill Matthews” alias at the Examiner. We need not rehearse here all the hateful acts of self-destructive madness Bill Schmalfeldt has engaged in during his sad descent into gibbering lunacy. It will perhaps be sufficient for anyone new to this psychiatric case-study to know that Schmalfeldt was banned from Daily Kos because of his writings about anal sex.

Go read it for yourself. I double-dog dare you.

Having lost the privilege of posting his demented ravings at Daily Kos, and having been similarly banished from contributing to the Examiner because of his habitual dishonesty, now this monstrous pervert wants to hijack the comments at this blog to claim victimhood.

Well, no. And there’s this: “Stalkers have no right to directly address you after they have been warned to cease and desist.”

All that is necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing about trolls like Bill Schmalfeldt.

The myth of “troll rights” is a persistent and dangerous delusion. You can write what you will on your own blog, Mr. Schmalfeldt, but the fact that no decent, honest or intelligent person cares to read your blog is not my problem. Likewise, the fact that the only use you seem to find for your Twitter account is to harass people you hate — not my problem.

Schmalfeldt’s problem can be described in two words: Bill Schmalfeldt.

Good luck fixing that problem, sir. It seems to be beyond repair.

  1. Schmalfeldt isn’t the problem. He’s a symptom – much like festering boils are a symptom of smallpox.

    The disease is leftism, which grants its sufferers an imagined moral authority to do any evil so long as they can justify it ideological through some sick and twist rationale.

    Schmalfeldt is just the end stage of that disease. Is he so different from Al Gore or Anthony Weiner or Barack Obama? They may not annoy you personally, their cases took somewhat different courses – BUT they have been in positions to do you far more direct damage than the pathetic freak Schmalfeldt ever could.

  2. The TRUE end stage of that disease is where civilization collapses under the weight of so many useless, unproductive turds.

  3. Damn, do you know how many tribal head hunters would LOVE to have that big ol’ melon as a trophy? #JustSaying

  4. But how long would it take to shrink that big ol’ noggin? Thing would be curing in the shed for years – and its already ugly enough to scare young children.

  5. Bill Schmalfeldt has the right to remain silent; he simply lacks the presence of mind to know when to do so. His lack of self control and common sense does not create an obligation on the part of this or any other website to provide him a forum.

    So why did he post here?

    It might have something to do with the fact that Stacy has more than 100X the traffic as the Cabin Boy. He probably had more eyeballs on his comments in the short time those they were up than he will have on his own site for the rest of this year.

  6. Yes, of course. That’s exactly what “troll rights” is about:

    “Oh, look: Someone I don’t like has spent years building an Internet platform that gets thousands of viewers daily. Here, let me jump into the comments of that space and derogate the character of the person providing this online space.”

    What part of “fuck you” is so hard for these people to understand?

    Lots of commenters here disagree with this, that or the other thing I might write, but there are some things I don’t have to accept, and the rantings of Bill Schmalfeldt are one of those things.

  7. I’m sure he’ll be claiming that picture is dishonestly photoshopped or something because he just volunteered to be injected with 200 pounds of velveeta for purely altruistic purposes and was posing innocently for his wife.

  8. Gibbering, capering, taunting,
    from the top of the courtly walls
    the troll forgets we only watch
    to see him when he falls

    –everyone who clicks “like” on a troll comment

  9. Reminds me of a bit from Shrek 2: “Donkey, you have the right to remain silent. What you lack is the capacity.”

  10. Felt Schmall tweeted me after I tweeted Mr. Hoge’s victory post. He has tweeted me before as Breitbartunmasked, so I tweeted him back and told him not to contact me again.

  11. You mean he wasn’t trying for Larry Flint?! Yes, yes, I know; that’s going a bit far. Sorry!

  12. I wonder: just what would our friends on the left have said had you posted a picture of President Obama with a stake in his head?

  13. does he not realize that people know how to take screen shots and save them? his blinders must be very big, and very tight.

  14. Pathetic freaks collecting Disability for being morbidly obese are the foot soldiers in the Obama army.

  15. It’s your blog, but I would have left them up, at least on those two posts, as a monument to the crazy. Because nothing says “I’m the innocent one here” quite like going on somebody else’s blog and picking fights not only with the owner, but with just about every commenter.

  16. That’s sweet old Uncle Bill, who’s just so happy to see you. Especially since you just opened up the to-go container and showed him the piping-hot breaded fried newborn.

  17. Having said that, having the deleted posts show as deleted works as far as showing the extent of the problem.

  18. I hear they’re doing wonderful things with electroshock therapy these days.

    They’d have to be careful with Bill, though. A few volts too much, and everyone on the ward comes around, asking who’s cooking bacon.

  19. Not if you’re a follower of notorious black magician Aleister Crowley, then it’s:

    There is no law beyond Do what thou wilt.
    Love is the law, love under will.
    …
    I am alone. There is no God where I am
