SLASHER "Ellynne G." wrote
OK, so I'm getting the digest now and the 'write' section of my e-mail
doesn't like it. I'll get the hang of it sooner or later.
This is a lie. She is going to use the SLASHER counter attack to try and take down my close text analysis of Leylan. Ellynne G. is a CONSCIOUS PROGRAMMER, these people are highly intelligent, and they know what they are doing.
Leylan's character: I think he represents the full tragedy of what the
Federation can do to the good
There is a half truth here. Leylan is a product of the Federation. However the Federation is run by psychopaths. Leylan is a camouflaged psychopath.
- or potentially good - people under its
control.
This is a fudge. Leylan is a conscious psychopath. He knows what he is doing.
He _knows_ what's right
Very unlikely. Psychopaths cannot tell right from wrong.
and he's willing to make some gestures
towards it,
Only as camouflage.
but with a great sense of futility.
BOLLOCKS.
He gives Jenna some protection when he tells Raiker to be discreet.
This is a total distortion. Leylan is telling Raiker that he can fuck Jenna, but that he must be discreet about it. He don't want to be *seen* to know.
I
gather Raiker wasn't big on _asking_ or, at any rate, listening when he was told no.
To a great degree Raiker is Leylan's sockpuppet.
But stop him entirely?
He is not stopping him at all. He is giving him the all clear.
This is the way the system works.
That's true, but not in the sense that Ellyne means.
This is what men like Raiker expect. What use is it to fight it?
That's true as well, but not in the sense that "Ellynne G." means.
He gives Raiker authority when they're under attack.
That's true.
Perhaps he was caving into fear or just desperate for a plan.
BOLLOCKS.
I _don't_ think he'd
thought it through to the logical end.
BOLLOCKS. Leylan is a very deep thinker, "Ellynne G."
I did think he accepted responsibility for the consequences.
That's true. That's Raiker's job.
But that was part of the same
attitude. It's not the full scale, heated outrage we might expect from someone who had no reason to expect a sane officer would do this (or who knows that no sane officer serving under him would think he could do this and get away with it).
He had a good idea what Raiker was going to do. Raiker isn't insane as such, he is a psychopath. These people are calculating. Please do not mix up psychopath with psychotic.
It's more the resignation of a man who knows he should have seen it because it was what Raiker would do
He had seen it.
- and who knows
the only option to hold Raiker responsible is to admit his own complicity and be punished right along with him.
BOLLOCKS. Leylan is playing a power game with Raiker.
Then, when the chance comes to send the merry trio over, I think he OKs it partly because it's the only way he can avoid executing them (and this
is the _captain_).
There is a partial truth there. He doesn't want to publicly execute them but part of sending them over to the ship is to kill them. That's why he sends Raiker after them with a gun. Raiker is going to kill them and Leylan knows it.
At the end, I think he was planning to take as much of the blame as he
could to help spare the younger officer.
BOLLOCKS. Artix is being used as a screen for Leylan. Leylan is only interested in protecting himself.
Arguing that he did his best
and lost (all true)
No. All false. "Ellynne G." is lying to you. She is a CONSCIOUS PROGRAMMER. THESE PEOPLE ARE HIGHLY DANGEROUS. PLEASE LEAVE THE LYST NOW.
doesn't cross his mind, not as a potentially winning
argument.
That's true.
So, I see him as a potentially good man who may not like the evils he
sees but considers himself powerless to oppose them in more than very small ways.
Leylan is an evil man. He is the cause of evil.
He may not like the status quo or the corruption but he sees
himself as powerless to do anything about it
Leylan is evil.
- an attitude so strong it
persists even when he has a position of power where he _could_ do
something.
BOLLOCKS. LEYLAN IS EVIL.
PLEASE LEAVE THIS LYST NOW. WHY DO YOU THINK ALL THESE PEOPLE WRITING ARE SLASHERS? THEY ARE TRYING TO MAINTAIN THE CONDITIONING. THEY ARE NOW USING STRONG AND HIGHLY EFFECTIVE CONDITIONING TECHNIQUES TO KEEP YOU HERE. THEY REALISE THAT SOME OF YOU ARE STILL HERE BECAUSE YOU ARE WATCHING WHAT I AM DOING. THAT IS ONE OF THE REASONS WHY "ELYNNE" HAS ATTACKED MY "SPACE FALL" CHARACTER ANALYSIS. IT IS TO DRAW ME INTO DEFENDING IT. THEY ARE NOW TRYING TO USE ME TO CONDITION YOU. SOON I WILL HAVE TO LEAVE THIS LYST. IF YOU ARE STILL ON HERE BECAUSE OF ME, THAT IS VERY FOOLISH. PLEASE LEAVE NOW. IF YOU WANT TO SPEAK TO ME DO IT OFFLYST, DO NOT REMAIN HERE. GO NOW.
