Here’s my previous post on Alcarillo. It’s been asked if we really know if Alcarillo is Joe Cafasso, when really, it is quite obvious.
Alcarillo has Kathryn Cramer completely engaged at Wikipedia and again she has fallen for it. It is fascinating to see that while he is going after her, he is also freely editing Jack Idema’s bio. Who else would it be? Who else has made such determined efforts, obsessed to the point of insanity, to destroy Jack Idema?
Can you imagine waking up every day with the singular goal of harrassing, stalking, misleading and misrepresenting yourself to prove Jack Idema is what YOU ARE? Joe Cafasso is, as they say in psychiatric circles, someone who constantly practices what they call ‘transference’.
Transference is common. Only in a personally or socially harmful context can transference be described as a pathological issue.
In the case of Joe Cafasso aka Alcarillo, this transference is indeed pathological. Imagine this scenario: The abuser in this instance is transferring his negative feelings directed towards his former abuser(s) to his actual victims, and transfers the power and dominance of his former abusers to himself. Who is it in his life that abused him and made him into the monster he is today? One can only theorize.
Another psychiatric phenomenon that fits Cafasso’s patterns is “projection”.
In psychology, psychological projection (or projection bias) is a defense mechanism in which one attributes (”projects”) to others, one’s own unacceptable or unwanted thoughts or/and emotions.
Alcarillo aka Joe Cafasso is calling Jack Idema the fraud that he himself is. Cafasso is impugning Jack Idema’s military record when in fact it’s Cafasso’s which consists of only 44 days in the army and being thrown out for unsuitable service.
Notice here on Jack Idema’s Wikipedia ‘history’ page-how many times Alcarillo shows up editing the bio. Now, I haven’t gone so far as to check what those edits are, because I don’t see the point. I’ve seen all I need to see by reading what he has up at Stuporpatriots.
The website Carteret Con Artist and the posts at 10-31 further reinforce the perception of how far off the reservation this man has wandered. By all appearances this man needs some serious help-and in my opinion, he is a danger to himself and others. He is demonstrating a serious pathological disorder.
I am also very interested in the other identities of the people editing behind pseudonyms who are obsessed so much with Idema. Whilst Idema is languishing in an Afghan jail, there are vicious people who are continuing their character assassination of him while he is unable to defend himself. What will Cafasso do with his life if Idema ends up killed by the Taliban or Al Qaeda? Cafasso’s entire purpose; his reason for living would be gone!
Now, if you look in the left hand column here, I’ve made an attempt at compiling all of the websites where Kathryn Cramer has publicized her writing and being an ‘anthologist’. Yet, she calls Cao at Cao’s blog, Jack Idema’s ‘publicist’.
As far as I can tell from all the posts that Cao has on Jack Idema, she is merely pointing out the inaccuracies and false notions on Idema; and asking questions. I don’t see her running all across the internet plugging her writing, or claiming she’s something that she’s not, or even touting herself as an expert on military affairs. This is hardly someone who is serving in the capacity of Idema’s ‘publicist’, or anyone else’s. Cramer on the other hand, is not only a writer of science fiction, but has tried to reinvent herself as an expert on military affairs, based on her association with the well-known fraud and con artist, Joe Cafasso, who at the time was known to Kathryn Cramer as Lt. Col. Gerry Blackwood. Her ‘expertise’ has even found its way onto the Socnet message boards, which makes Socnet a questionable source for information on all things military when they’re using Cramer as a source, as well.
Cramer admitted that she has had nothing to do with the military and has never known someone who even served, until she met Lt. Col. Gerry Blackwood. So to some people who Blackwood aka Cafasso has conned, Blackwood is the only person they’ve ever met in their lives who’s been affiliated with the military. Breathtaking, heh?
So, then, Cramer’s publicist claim or complaint about Cao is more accurately a reflection on her own self absorption and hubris. This would demonstrate that Cafasso and Cramer are similar in some ways: Kathryn Cramer’s also engaging in the ‘projection’ behavior. Cramer isn’t lending the Jack Idema Smear Campaign any benefit, or adding to it in any way. Her antics should serve as a complete embarrassment to Tod Robberson, Ellen Mai, David Isenberg, Tracy-Paul Warrington, Robert Young Pelton, Ed Artis, Col. Robert Morris, Mariah Blake, Stacy Sullivan, and the rest of the people who have contributed to this. In an abstract sort of way, this is a real-life version of Murder On the Orient Express.

The question is…will the internets swallow these up, also?




Sorry to burst your bubble, but I’m not Joe Cafasso. I’m slightly amused, and slightly insulted. I’m a far better writer than he, judging by what I’ve seen attributed to him elsewhere. And when I say attributed, I mean that which has his name attached to it. I have no idea whether he’s behind any of the other sites you mentioned. Nor do I particularly care.
I’m not sure there’s anything I could write that would convince you otherwise — if it’s important to you that I be Cafasso, well that’s your choice. You’re going to believe what you want to believe, I suppose. But I appreciate you taking the time to notice what I’ve done on Wikipedia. Might I suggest going to check out the rest of my edit history there, including the work I’ve done on Cafasso’s article as well. If then you still think I’m he, given what I’ve contributed to the article, well then I think you overestimate Cafasso’s powers of projection.
Denial is not a river in Egypt, lol. Yes, we all believe what we chose to believe in spite of the whining objections of known liars and conmen. You’ve been found out; and exposed, that is entirely clear. I think that Jimmy Wales should know about what you and Cramer are doing to Wikipedia. It used to be a relatively reliable source for information, but not anymore, knowing what I know now. And I learn more about you every day.
The strength of your objections merely proves the point. How did you find this obscure blog unless you’re trying to cover yourself?
Come now. Not everyone is as stupid as Kathryn Cramer.
Google “Alcarillo”; this blog shows up pretty early on. And I had read the other causal nexus blog on blogspot; thought it curious that it was repurposed here as well, and rather surprised to see my Wikipedia handle one of the topics.
I took the opportunity to leave blogspot, and it didn’t cost me a bloody shilling for the adventure. “Repurposed” here is a rather interesting choice of words. I don’t suppose you’ve ever seen someone leave blogspot before? And what Causal Nexus blogspot blog would that have been? I’m curious.
It’s interesting that you don’t know Cafasso but you’re familiar with his writing style, but don’t recognize Stuporpatriots as being a product of his poorly developed intellect.
You are contradicting yourself, as I’m sure you’re fully aware.
