PSA regarding Andrew Marston part 2

Jul 06, 2012 01:04

It's been pointed out to me that not everyone knows all of Andrew Marston's screen names. Well, here are the ones he's used so far on my site.

The main one is yamamanama

as in http://yamamanama.livejournal.com

but he has also posted as

http://openid.aol.com/lilacanddatura
http://openid.aol.com/andthestarsshine
http://openid.aol.com/phoenixwing667
http://openid.aol.com/darkprophet667

and

Why has he used six separate ID's to post on my site? Because I have banned each of them in turn, usually when he started being either obscenely insulting or actually threatening to the other people posting on my site.

One can generally recognize Yama's posts because of his style and his obsessions.

His style is indescribable. It can best be described as a mode of argumentation in which he will attempt to associate a person or idea with whom he disagrees with some sort of other person, idea or thing he personally dislikes (the latter can be anything from Naziism to a particular style of music or food), regardless of whether there is any direct logical connection between the first entity and the second. He will then spew out a sort of word salad, sometimes interspersed with strange warnings or threats, often with extensive use of pronouns instead of nouns, sometimes to the point of incomprehensibility.

His obsessions are his own. He seems to be an upper-middle class white, possibly part- (some kind of) South or Southeast Asian 20-something man who was raised in a rich neigbhorhood in Massachusetts, son of a fairly well-to-do lawyer, who decided after 9-11 to become either a Shi'ite Muslim Terrorist sympathizer or an actual Shi'ite Muslim Terrorist. He lacks the balls to actually strap on a suicide vest, and instead prefers to harass anyone who opposes the Terrorists, especially if they are female.

This gets into his other big obsession. He apparently regards himself as some sort of Noble Heroic Savior of the World's Oppressed, especially if said Oppressed are (or he thinks they are) attractive young women, particularly of Third World descent and most particularly of East to Southeast Asian descent. This sounds nicer than it works out in practice, because if one fits this category and one fails to enthusiastically agree with Andrew, he will decide that one is the scum of the Earth and begin simultaneously insulting and stalking one.

He sometimes boasts of obscure connections with jihadists -- I have no idea if he's lying about this, though one would think that any Terrorist organization which trusted Andrew with anything important would have to be Too Stupid To Live -- and he may have some sort of connection with hackers, beause he or some of his friends constantly attempt all sorts of online exploits against people whom he has decided to dislike for some reason or other.

He has absolutely no scruples against doing anything to those whom he dislikes: he has a weird black-and-white view of life in which he is the Designated Hero and everyone who disagrees with him on anything, even the most stupidly trivial things, is a Complete Monster. He gets angry and sometimes incoherent if this is pointed out to him.

I don't think he has a lot of real-life friends. He certainly seems to spend a lot of time and effort on his strange online jihad. Or crusade, or whatever the heck he imagines himself to be doing.

Anyway, I very much warn you not to let him on your blogs under any aliases, and most especially don't let him know anything personal about you. He has no compunction about using it -- I don't think he has a very clear idea how normal life and society works, so he has very few inhibitions against hurting people, other than his own physical cowardice. I think he's some kind of sociopath: I'm just not sure what kind.

This is as much thinking as I want to do tonight about this creep. Goodnight, and be careful. If he does something illegal to you, I recommend reporting him either to the FBI's Cyber Crimes unit or to the Massachusetts State Police's equivalent division.
