the town in lived in in nevada, mesquite, is less than 10 miles from where clive bundy's supporters organized that heavily-armed sit-in. i used to run under that overpass where they were taking sniper positions. but no, i'm just Out of Touch, and real-life white conservatives are really crypto-marxists who just need to hear things the right way #4rillydo #areyoufuckingkiddingme #ragecomics

whats the matter with kansas is a bunch of liberal bullshit, political economy is exactly what it sounds like, you will probably never convince a racist libertarian to become anything else through rhetoric alone and getting sad about it is dumb hth

uhh i dont use rhetoric alone. i use browbeating, the exploitation of existing prejudices, and incredibly disingenuous emotional language. and im rather ecstatic about it!

great Meme but i will point out again that that is a stupid as hell thing to do its how you end up with bhpn calling people faggots and threatening to kill women

Homosexuality is counter revolutionary and gays as well as women should be purged to further the goals of Communism.

a good 20% of the people i see every day are people who shouldn't even be alive, who would stare at you dead-eyed if you tried to explain the inner workings of a fucking helium balloon, let alone something so complex as political theory, and who couldn't even take care of themselves in an equitable society. another 20% are vicious and selfish criminals who are a little more intelligent than the previous group but are still too stupid to understand how harmful their naked self-interest is. the third fifth are the middle-aged and older, who are already set in their ways and think their longevity makes them survivors and purveyors of the obvious truth and who will never listen to anyone about anything, but they'll be dead sooner or later which is their only redeeming factor. the next 20% is people of the sort who post here, who are superficially intelligent and have been given the chance to really open their eyes and see the world for what it is, but they're ruined by one soupy idiotic theory or another (religion is a big one) and they'll eventually give up, not that they ever actually DID anything anyway. The last 20% of humanity is made up of various kinds of clowny ponce, and there are too many subsets to go into right now but they are each jack of them worthless in startlingly unique ways, it's a really a panoply of failure. i wish there was an alien species who could stumble upon our little remains sometime in the near future because if they have even a rudimentary sense of humor they'd be able to have a decades-long renaissance of humor and art just going through our artifacts and histories and riffing on our little self-important fucking useless civilizaiton

it is literally easier, in the year 2014, to convince racist conservatives that bombing Syria is a bad idea than it is to convince a liberal Democrat. Just call it "Obama's War", throw in a couple of "bring Our Boys home" and "we cant afford this" and youre good to go.

neoconservatism has made a huge comeback since the ISIS gained so much power & territory and even Rand Paul has renounced his purported isolationism. most of what i've been hearing from the right is that Obama isn't bombing the IS enough.
