Nazis refuse to see themselves.

December 9, 2013 

Look, can we just all get on the same page that the Nazis sucked? 
Like, royally? 
And by that, I mean, if they'd never touched a hair on the head of a single jew, they'd still suck. 
Their whole thing sucked. 
The authoritarian order barking, the boot clomping, fatherland worshiping, conformist, new-age mysticism, silly dress-code, heap of horseshit. 
Top to bottom. 
This notion that if the holocaust could just be denied away, everything would be ducky needs squelching. 
Likewise the melodramatic butt-hurt when you compare other authoritarian things to Nazis. 
"The police can be heavy-handed, but they never killed any jews! How dare you say "fascist!"". "Beating up one guy isn't killing 3 MILLION JEWS". 
Yeah, no shit, dipshit. 
Fascism is the whole deal, not just the body count. 
Tired of this dumb, ugly, thuggy crap being hidden under the body count. 
It's deliberate dishonesty, let's root it out.

And the update...

December 9, 2019

Not only can't you get people on this same page, when they're for every single thing the Nazis were for, they can't see themselves, and get all wounded when you call them what they are.


Trump's/MAGA's racism.

January 16, 2018 

I don't understand why there's this hand wringing confusion over whether Trump is racist or not. 
Yes, he's fucking racist. 
Racist as fuck. 
Look, let's go with the narrative that he's "just confused and ignorant". 
If he's confused and ignorant about race, he sure as fuck isn't confused about his classism. 
No Republican is. 
Their platform is all about classism. 
And once you're classist, you're racist. 
It took me a long time to figure it out, but there it is, and that's that. 
Once you make an ideology that some people deserve to be rich, and some people deserve to be poor, and poverty is a moral failing, color prejudice always comes next, because that's the laziest thing you can point to, and it's a lazy philosophy at its core. 
Then once you've segregated the differently colored into their little ghettos, you can always keep them there by blaming them. 
Even if Trump were blissfully naive of all of this, he's still the banner-boy for a racist system. 
But he's not blissfully naive. 
Dig up his history as a slumlord. 
Dig up his history as a casino owner. 
There's no wiggle room. 
His supporters need to have a talk with the person in the mirror. 
If they want to double down instead, fuck 'em. 
I'm not saving anybody. 
Come at me defending a racist, you're getting a kick in the gut.

And the update...

January 16, 2020

Phase 1, fake naive confusion, phase 2, lame "greater good", justifications for voting in the face of his racism, phase 3, "boy he sure triggers libs!", phase 4, "who cares now? He's completed his term!".


Bigotry potion.

February 1, 2017

Bigotry is a black bottle with a white skull and crossbones label, and with smoke rolling out the top, and the guy who hands it you comes right out and says "this will make you into an asshole at best, a monster at worst. Just the most lowlife pile of shit you ever saw. No one decent will ever respect you. Not ever. BUT, you'll feel like a million bucks! Boy, does this stuff stoke the ego!". 
It's scary how many people hear that warning and sales pitch rolled into one, and just violently and greedily grab that bottle, and chug it like soda pop. 
Scary, but not surprising. Sadly.


Folksy wisdom.

February 1, 2014

I can't find a single bright chapter in history that was written by morons. 
All the dark ones were though. 
Yet people still find stupidity praiseworthy. 
They give it cuter names like "folksy wisdom", and "the way of things", and "conventional wisdom", and "we've always done it this way", but unanimous landslide failure never seems to discredit it. Damnedest thing I ever saw.


Low IQs.

February 1, 2014 

Okay, here's my brutal conclusion. 
If your IQ juuuust straddles 100, and anything below, don't have beliefs. 
Stay out of philosophy, politics, science, all of it. 
Just eat, and shit, and wait to die. 
You'll just make a big fucking mess otherwise.


Damn, that bunch of 5 almost bleeds together as one rant when you look at it.
