Nazism vs. socialism, monkeys flinging shit, nothing about my so-called life...
So I’ve avoided writing much, blog-wise, in the last week or so,
mainly because I’ve kind of been an emotional trainwreck and don’t
particularly want to inflict that on anyone. Which, blogging about why
you haven’t blogged is like, one of the worst sins ever, right next to
writing a bunch of emo, LiveJournal-ish bullshit about how “woe is me”
your life is and why you feel like you should just gargle with Dran-O
already except then nobody would be able to hear you prattle on any
more. So I’m off to a good start. Also I just used the word “blog”
about 4 times, which makes me the kind of person I hate. But anyway, the main thing I wanted to actually say is that,
regardless of how I may have felt about the man before now, Barney
Frank is now officially my hero. I realize I’m almost a week behind,
which is just about forever in like, interweb time, but hell, I’m
getting too fucking old for this shit anyway. But in total, there are
a very small handful of YouTube clips that I could just watch on a
loop repeatedly for hours on end. The first of these is Buzz Aldrin
punching some moon-landing-denier in the face, and now the second is
Barney Frank asking some asshole with a picture of Obama defaced as
Hitler which planet she spends most of her time on. I mean seriously?
Really? Is like, studying the actual history of World War 2 not
mandatory in schools any more? Is it too politically incorrect, or
something? Because it seems to me that the main understanding of
actual like, Nazi ideology these days comes to people only by way of
comparing people they disagree on an internet message board to the
Nazis.
which is NOT SOCIALISM. So if you’re going to call something
socialist, and then compare the person pushing for it to Hitler, you
suffer from Extreme History Fail, and given the opportunity I will
point the fucking Death Panel right at you and give you the big thumbs
down, OK? Is that a deal? Seriously, I read somewhere that some anti-Obama types like, carried
some kind of assault weapons or something to a town meeting or
somewhere. Really? Say what you will about the Cheney administration,
but that is shit up with which they would not put. Those fuckers would
be in a deep dark hole in Syria to this day. I’m not trying to get off
on some kind of anti-gun rant, or anti-free speech for people I
dislike rant, or anything like that, because I disagree with both of
those things, but honestly, the sheer level of hypocrisy is
outstanding. I guess it is heartening to see that they insaner
elements of the Right are getting more and more desperate and just
having to rely on like, rabid lies to get things put down. But the sad
thing is, IT’S STILL WORKING. I mean personally I have my doubts about
the platforms of either party, and only support Democrats because I
favor not basing laws about marriage and reproduction on the ramblings
of long-dead bronze-age goatherders. But seriously, Democrats? You’re
a bunch of fucking wusses. You’ve got a majority in both houses, the
white house, and a clear mandate, and you’re still fucking around
trying to “compromise” when at this point the thing you’re
compromising with is a bunch of fucking monkeys throwing their shit at
you. “Well really, we need to listen to what the monkeys are saying,
and maybe smear some of their shit into our own faces in the spirit of
bipartisan agreement”… and yeah, fuck that. I mean shit or get off
the pot, because if you fail, we’re going to be back to religious
fundamentalism in 4 years and I will be an unhappy anarchist. So this went in a pretty boring political direction, for which I
apologize in advance. At least I didn’t bore you about my personal
life.
