Robert Scoble is a Jerk
Robert Scoble Attacks Igor The Troll
Why is Robert Scoble aka @Scobleizer is so negative towards me? It is because I questioned hi professionalism and chose to criticize him in my post! China earthquake Twitter Robert Scoble I based my criticism of Robert Scoble reporting Chinese earthquake on criticism by Danny Sullivan of Search Engine Land. He is an ex BBC journalist who said, “Integrity must be preserved by verifying source of story!” I totally agre with Danny. We must verify all data as to not to create Bias and undue panic when reporting news!
So, Robert Scoble chose to attack me instead of living up to his bad impetuous judgment! Robert Scoble does not like criticism! Ego Hurts!
Robert Scoble Attacks Igor The Troll again
This was during the Israeli Gaza war. Robert Scoble Flammed me against Loren Feldman another Social Media Jew, causing me to lose my Twitter account. Robert Scoble is Hamas Supporter Twitter account suspended b/c support 4 Israel
Now Robert Scoble is picking a fight with me again!
Robert Scoble Attacks Igor The Troll again
Robert Scoble just Flames for attention to stay popular. He flamed with FaceBook when he got banned for downloading his friends email addresses from FaceBook in violation of TOS. He did this just so he can cry about it in Social Media and bring attention to himself.

Robert Scoble is the very image of everything that is wrong with social media right now. He is an over-popularized news stealer claiming to be a journalist. But we have a problem. The things we see above don’t sound very unbiased and objective, not to mention well researched. These are the standards of journalism. He’s just another media whore. I took action and blocked him from all of my networks several months back. Not because of any disagreement, but because I think he is the opposite of what a social media journalist should be.
Igor, my friend, I am sorry for your troubles. But don’t let the pompous ass get to you.
August 23rd, 2009 at 12:56 am
Bravo Jack! You are just one of the very few people who figured this out. Robert Scoble is all popularity but no substance.
He brings nothing to the Information Highway but distortion to what is real. If you Kiss Robert Scoble’s Ass he approves of you. If you do not, he margenalizes you.
I would say American president Obama is same. This is why America as a whole going towards the wrong direction!
August 23rd, 2009 at 2:26 am
Maybe he doesn’t like you because you smoke cigarettes while having a heart attack?
August 23rd, 2009 at 2:30 am
That is what they all say, especially Sexy ladies!
August 23rd, 2009 at 3:10 am
it’s his profile… he should have his friends there, but the presumption is that he is about more then that, then he virals you as a bad guy. I’m not going to pretend that I can prove anything… but my gut tells me he hates Israel. most of what I dislike about him is he allows his comments to say what he is really feeling so that he bares no responsibility. he has allowed some of the most offensive things on his posts, and yet somehow I was not given the same liberty. I think it is fair to suppose Scoble’s political juxtaposition is being intolerant.
August 23rd, 2009 at 3:13 am
Scoble is the New Hitler! Very few people see it now, but his tacit approval of Antisemitism on his public profiles is disturbing!
August 23rd, 2009 at 3:15 am
Knock it off, Scoble is not antisemetic
August 23rd, 2009 at 3:25 am
Robert Taylor, do you know what is Antisemitism and how it comes about?
You can have a direct attack on the Jews like Hitler did, or you can have a subtle attack on the Jews like the Jews been experiencing for 6,000 years!
The covert Antisemitism is the worst kind!
Robert Scoble allows Sean McBride who is a vowed Antisemit to attack Jews and Israel on his FriendFeed profile. To me, thi is Antisemitism!
August 23rd, 2009 at 10:46 am
I know a lot about the concept of the New Antisemetism. It is a tactic used by supporters of Israel’s draconian policies to change the subject and demonize those who are critical.
I don’t know who Sean McBride is, but I’ve spoken to Scoble on this subject and I know full and well that he has nothing against Jews in general.
The important thing to note here is that there is no collective Jew. Some Jews support Israel’s policies, some don’t. Either way, condemnation of a government is not a condemnation of all those within the borders.
August 23rd, 2009 at 11:07 am
Robert Taylor, it is nice of you speak on Robert Scoble’s behalf, but I and others would prefer to hear directly from Robert Scoble on his stands when it comes to Israel and the Jewish people.
And no, I am not switching the debate from one topic to another.
Robert Scoble called me a Troll and Blocked me in a public outing. I had many people follow me for months telling others to block me on FriendFeed and on Twitter.
August 23rd, 2009 at 11:10 am
My answer to this next issue is that you have no inherent right to free speech on other people’s networks. People can do what they want with their property. You can (for the most part) say whatever you want on your blog.
August 23rd, 2009 at 11:13 am
Robert Taylor FriendFeed, FaceBook, and Twitter are public companies in public space incorporated in USA covered by the First Amendment to the USA constitution which allows Free Speech!
I am no voicing my opinions on Robert Scoble’s private blog!
If Robert Scoble wishes to be Totalitarian, that is a big problem for all of us!
August 23rd, 2009 at 11:33 am
You might ask these guys what I think of Israel: http://www.flickr.com/photos/scobleizer/2218342837/
As to why I block you and continue to block you? You’re a jerk. Period. And I don’t need more jerks in my life. It has nothing to do with being critical, either. I have many, many critics that I never block. But you go way over the line and continue to, even with this post.
USA Constitution does NOT force third parties or companies to offer free speech places to people. Neither does it force me to let you spew your vile and incorrect stuff into my Tweet stream or my Facebook streams.
August 23rd, 2009 at 11:37 am
In case those pictures aren’t clear, I’ve been to Israel once, and have been invited to the very private Israeli breakfast and dinners hosted by Yossi Vardi, famous Israeli VC and I’ve sat right next to the Israeli President. I’m a great supporter of Israel. Thanks Robert Taylor. You’ll find that you won’t get anywhere with Igor, but I do appreciate speaking up for truth, thanks!
August 23rd, 2009 at 11:41 am
Here’s one of me hanging out with Shimon Peres: http://www.flickr.com/photos/scobleizer/2219134940/in/photostream/ Eat your heart out!
August 23rd, 2009 at 11:43 am
Robert Scoble I am honored by your visit to my humble abode. Is it not better that we are talking instead of calling each other derogatory names?
As far as you taking a picture of Israel President Shimon Peres does not make you a friend of Israel, neither it makes you an expert on Israel. I am an Israeli, so I speak for my country and my Jewish people.
Yes, each person on public network can allow who he/she wants to comment in their space, but outing out a person especially a nob is a violation of Netiquettes! And you should know better than that!
Robert Scoble you are acting as Totalitarian dictator on the Internet. You are abusing your powers given to ylou by Social Media! Many people worry about this!
August 23rd, 2009 at 11:49 am
>>does not make you a friend of Israel, neither it makes you an expert on Israel.
On the first you are totally incorrect. You can’t get into the inner circle of Shimon without being a friend of Israel. On the second, I never claimed to be an expert on Israel.
As for my blocking, well, it sure doesn’t stop you from spreading your hatred and untruths far and wide. But I sure won’t help you do that. So, you’ll have to do it on your blog and hope that you snare a few people here and there by impersonating me over on various networks. I don’t think we ever will see eye to eye on this one. I just know that I don’t invite liars and jerks into my life and I won’t be forced to through your actions either.
And with this, I see you’re back to name calling and your usual behavior, so I will be off again. Have a nice time.
August 23rd, 2009 at 12:00 pm
Robert Scoble, if you are such a friend and supporter of Israel, why do you let Sean McBride spread Antisemitism and attack Israel on your FriendFeed page?
Robert Scoble,
Now you spreading lies as usual. Where have I impersonated Robert Scoble on other networks? Show me one place! I never impersonate other people! Can’t you see this by my name?
August 23rd, 2009 at 12:44 pm
Igor: actually YOU DON’T speak for Israelis or the Jewish people. You speak for yourself. That’s self evident in the fact that there are Jews that HATE Israel totally and unabashedly.
You also have a fundamental misunderstanding of what private property is vs. national government. Robert Scoble is not acting like a totalitarian dictator because YOU DON’T HAVE to listen to what he says. Neither does he have to listen to what you say.
Yeah Twitter and Facebook may be public. If you own stock in them then make your complaints there. If not, you have no inherent right to be talking on their networks.
August 23rd, 2009 at 12:49 pm
Robert Taylor, all Jews support Israel. If they do not, then something wrong with them!
I am a customer on Twitter, FriendFeed, and FaceBook. So, I do not have to own stock in the networks to voice my opinion.
August 23rd, 2009 at 12:51 pm
Robert Scoble, you do a photo-op with President Simon Peres then you let Sean McBride spread Antisemitism and attack of Israel on your FriendFeed page! Oxymoron and Hypocrisy!
Robert Scoble, you are a Social Media Whore!
August 23rd, 2009 at 12:55 pm
First off you are wrong. MANY Jews don’t support the state government of Israel. Almost every Jew supports the prosperity of other Jews. There’s nothing wrong with them just because you say so. You’re not the Jew King. You’re a troll.
Second: let me get this straight. I own a store where I sell candy. I sell you candy. You say things that offend me and I stop selling you my candy. You have a right to my candy? That’s moronic reasoning.
August 23rd, 2009 at 12:56 pm
Or you have a right to keep offending me on my property?
August 23rd, 2009 at 1:04 pm
Robert Taylor, without Israel there are no Jews! I doubt you can figure this one out!!!
Learn you Consumer Rights.
If you try to offend me one more time by calling me a “Troll” I will ban you from my blog!
August 23rd, 2009 at 1:07 pm
I’m sorry about the offending part. I was just reiterating your own self-appointed title.
Wait a second. You don’t even live in Israel. My Jewish family doesn’t live in Israel. So if Israel was gone tomorrow, they would still be in California. And you would still be in Asia or wherever it is your at right now. You’re talking nonsense again Igor.
August 23rd, 2009 at 1:08 pm
There was no Israel before 1948. So there were no Jews before 1948???
August 23rd, 2009 at 1:12 pm
On consumer rights: Twitter is used predominantly in the US. The US and Americans including Robert Scoble overwhelmingly support the existence of the state of Israel. So how is it that banning supporters of Israel on Twitter gives Twitter an unfair advantage in the marketplace?
How is my not selling candy to you giving me an unfair advantage of selling more candy?? On the contrary son, I should sell candy to you to make MORE money.
Twitter should not show a bias to extreme views that support terrorism because it will HURT THEM in the marketplace and with advertisers. Common sense.
August 23rd, 2009 at 1:14 pm
Apology accepted! The Troll in my nic is Sarcasm and Irony!
I always felt you and your sister Elana Taylor are Jewish!
Israel was given by God to us Jews as a covenant between us Jews and God via Abraham our patriarch!
Jews, as written in the Torah, must defend Israel for God! Amein
August 23rd, 2009 at 1:18 pm
Robert Taylor, Scoble can do whatever he likes, but Cybebullying users to promote himself is Bad!
Twitter banning users because someone like Robert Scoble complains about them to management is wrong and illegal.
August 23rd, 2009 at 1:19 pm
a God of favoritism? Not any God I want to be associated with. He should want everyone to prosper if he has the power to do such things.
August 23rd, 2009 at 1:22 pm
Robert Taylor an Atheist Jew!
August 23rd, 2009 at 1:44 pm
I, unlike Scoble, am not a supporter of the state of Israel. Just like I am not a supporter of the USA or the state of Uganda. I am a supporter of individual property rights and individual liberty. The idea of a state is incompatible with my positions.
August 23rd, 2009 at 5:53 pm
I find it amusing that Robert Scoble justifies that he isn’t against Israel by showing Shimon Perez and Jacob Richman. Jacob Richman I do not have kind words to say about. I have talked directly to him and he seems intolerant to other Jews himself. Perez is President of Israel. He has to meet with bigots all over the world. He has had to shake the hands of all kinds of scum and that is why we resent Perez and always vote him out is that he gives people like Robert Scoble the foundation to say they aren’t haters. as for Scoble’s claim that he has been to Israel… how many foreign funded NGOs that defame Israel are in Israel?
Robert Scoble you are on shaky ground when you bring out a photo of those two to justify your tolerance. is tolerance to you only Jews that are intolerant to Jews?
August 23rd, 2009 at 6:01 pm
@Noah: well now you’re just getting ridiculous. Who does Robert have to put up a picture of? You, Noah? Wait a second, you’re intolerant of Perez and Richman. So you are intolerant of some Jews. So basically Robert would have to put a picture of himself and Jesus Christ, the only Jew who loved all other Jews.
August 23rd, 2009 at 6:45 pm
Well Robert Scoble, I just hope you are not at the next “Kill the Juice!” rally. You marry a Muslim woman, good for you. You convert to a Muslim. I hope you know what you doing!
Learn about the people around you! As long as you going to tolerate Antisemitists like Sean McBride and his kind that do not want State of Israel to exist, we will be watching you!
Have a nice day
August 23rd, 2009 at 7:40 pm
Robert Taylor works for RackSpace
Just so everyone knows, and I just found out, Robert Taylor works for RackSpace same company as Robert Scoble that owns Building43.
Robert Taylor all this time has been prostituting himself for RackSpace and Robert Scoble!
August 23rd, 2009 at 8:58 pm
the true test of Robert Taylor’s arguments is that he is using Tautological strategy to argue a point. his comment that I do not endorse “Perez and Richman. So you are intolerant of some Jews.” is the tautological strategy of equivalence by comparing unlike things with the same method. A BIG BULVERISM and very common… and I’m not sure I should dignify to answer the question because in etiquette it is hitting below the belt.
Israel is a Democracy. the mere fact that we let scum like Robert Scoble mingle in does not mean he is not a bigot.
August 24th, 2009 at 3:53 am
Clarification: Robert James Taylor in the FriendFeed SnapShot is not the Robert Taylor who commented on this blog. It was a confusion by me.
Robert James Taylor does work for RacKSpace and now he and another RackSpace employee are aware of Robert Scoble tolerance for Antisimic attack on Jews and Israel on his FriendFeed page by Sean McBride!
Again, I ask Robert Scoble, why do you block and publicly out Jewish activists while tolerating attack on Israel and Jews?
August 24th, 2009 at 5:28 am
the bigger issue is Robert Scoble. why does he leave his accusations so vague. he made a huge accusation and did not and never has detailed it. could anything I have done been worse then what Scoble enables on his threads as far as surveillance of Zionists online? http://ff.im/6Ws8Y
Scoble is not the only bigot that an Israeli leader like Peres has had to rub shoulders with in the name of diplomacy. I fail to see how this proves Scoble is not a bigot. Robert Scoble’s online forum reads like a Durban II conference.
August 26th, 2009 at 5:48 am
the logic of equivalence always seems to fail: that is comparing two unalike factors. I think it can be categorized as a tautological argument. the statement is repeated and the meaning is lost based on a variable that has no relevance to the original statement’s content.
X is not against Jews because he couldn’t possible be talking about all Jews. how many times have we heard this in social media?
this reminds me of Robert Scoble’s claim this week that he wasn’t against Israel because he shook hands with Shimon Perez.
lol… how many totalitarian bigots does a world leader have to shake hands with? Arafat shook Rabin’s hand… so I guess then Arafat must support Israel then.

Noah, I would like to respond to you in a Seesmic video, but because of Robert Scoble Loic Lemeur of Seeemic banned me from Seesmic video network!
Do people call this Fair or Fascism?
