I came up with it on the fly.
AES states have good reason to be wary of Western missionaries, since the missionary often accompanied the merchant as the tip of the capitalist spear that was trying to penetrate new markets. They were often then followed by the marine and the artilleryman. After which, the economist would survey the worth of the rubble that came in their wake.
That's where they send them when Yonkers is full.
He saw the Gollum torture scene in Fellowship and thought that should be official policy at all black sites.

I mean, I'm generous in giving the benefit of the doubt to people who are so fixated on technical language. Sometimes people who spend a lot of time in academia focus too narrowly on only communicating with other academics. I try to be diplomatic that way. I don't like confrontation where people pick apart each other That was why in the spirit of the left unity we talk about here, I did emphasize things like radical democracy being one of my chief concerns.

I don't think there was any sort of malice in him saying that, though I understand your concern given how we here on this site are so weary of people approaching us in bad faith.
For more context, I met a guy who describes himself philosophically as some sort of left anarchist, and I can't really understand what he's saying because of how much formal education he has in the subject (graduate level stuff I suppose). The experience reminded me of my own insecurities about the glaring gaps in my education.
