Everything is discussed openly in /gsg/ and every /gsg/ user claims the right to have an opinion on any and all questions. One is Catholic, the other Protestant, one a shitposter, the other a serious poster, a blobber, a socialist, a democrat, a fascist. There is nothing dishonorable about choosing one side or the other of a question. Discussions happen in public and where matters are unclear or confused one settles it by argument and counter argument. But there is one problem that is not discussed publicly, one that it is delicate even to mention: the Grandi question. It is taboo in our thread.

Grandi is immunized against all dangers: one may call him a redditor, SJW, leftist, kike, it all runs off him like water off a raincoat. But call him Grandi and you will be astonished at how he recoils, how injured he is, how he suddenly shrinks back: “I’ve been found out.”

One cannot defend himself against Grandi. He attacks with lightning speed from his position of safety and uses his abilities to crush any attempt at defense.

Quickly he turns the attacker’s charges back on him and the attacker becomes the liar, the steamgroup, discord. Nothing could be more mistaken than to defend oneself. That is just what Grandi wants. He can invent a new lie every day for the enemy to respond to, and the result is that the enemy spends so much time defending himself that he has no time to do what Grandi really fears: to attack. The accused has become the accuser, and loudly he shoves the accuser into the dock. So it always was in the past when a person or a movement fought Grandi. That is what would happen to us as well were we not fully aware of his nature, and if we lacked the courage to draw the following radical conclusions:

1. One cannot fight Grandi by positive means. He is a negative, and this negative must be erased from the thread or he will forever corrupt it.
2. One cannot discuss the HPM question with Grandifa.
3. One cannot allow Grandifa the same means one would give an honest opponent, for he is no honorable opponent. He will use generosity and nobility only to trap his enemy.
4. Grandi has nothing to say about grand strategy questions. He is a foreigner, an alien, who only enjoys the rights of a guest, rights that he always abuses.
5. The so-called historical plauisbility of HPM is no plausibility at all, rather an encouragement to betrayal. Therefore, they have no claim to protection from the thread.
6. Grandi is not smarter than we are, rather only cleverer and craftier. His mod cannot be changed by the thread — he follows entirely different moral principles than we do. It can only be broken through t. /gsg/ posting.
7. Grandifa cannot insult us. Grandif slanders are but badges of honor for an opponent of Grandi.
8. The more a /gsg/ user or a /gsg/ thread opposes Grandi, the more valuable it is. If someone is attacked by Grandifa, that is a sure sign of his virtue. He who is not persecuted by Grandifa, or who is praised by them, is useless and dangerous.
9. Grandi evaluates grand strategy questions from the Grandi standpoint. As a result, the opposite of what he says must be true.
10. One must either affirm or reject HPM. He who defends Grandi harms his own general. One can only be a Grandifa or a Grandi opponent. Opposing Grandi is a matter of personal hygiene.
These principles give the anti-Grandi movement a chance of success. Only such a movement will be taken seriously by Grandi, only such a movement will be feared by him.

The fact that he shouts and complains about such a movement therefore is only a sign that it is right. We are therefore delighted that we are constantly attacked in the HPM changelogs. They may shout about shitposting. We answer with familiar words: “shitposting? Never! It is social hygiene. We take these redditors out of circulation just as a doctor does to a bacterium.
