Laws Of Hate (On Stupidity, Volume Two, Part One.)

Rights aren't rights if someone can take them away. They're privileges. That's all we've ever had in this country, is a bill of temporary privileges. And if you read the news even badly, you know that every year the list gets shorter and shorter. You see all, sooner or later. Sooner or later, the people in this country are gonna realize the government does not give a fuck about them! The government doesn't care about you, or your children, or your rights, or your welfare or your safety. It simply does not give a fuck about you! It's interested in its own power. That's the only thing. Keeping it and expanding it wherever possible. ~George Carlin

I saw this earlier today, former Republican political guy pointing out something I've understood as obvious since about 2016 or so. 

All these Republicans, the only people they hate more than the rest of us is each other...but as I've been saying for years, every last one of these motherfuckers wants to be the King in his castle...and none of them can get there without all the others. They need each other, until they don't. Remember that part.

Apparently there's a fair amount of Republican infighting under the surface, kind of like the power struggle between Stalin and Trotsky in the interwar era.

Yes, I fucking went there, because this shit bears about as much resemblance to conservatism as I understand it as Soviet Communism does.

It's all a fucking cult, and all the members hate each other.

If I had to slap a D&D Alignment on this mess it would be "Chaotic Evil."

I saw this post just a little bit ago, some Republican crowing about the Florida legislature passing the repeal of the Reedy Creek improvement area (Where Disney World is located) even though this promises to wreak havoc upon the two counties that would be affected and assume the RCID's debts or have to organize and pass a similar setup of their own...which takes time and imposes ruinous costs...but those might not be as bad as the counties having to try to pay for all the stuff that the RCID meant Disney had to fund. And its environmental standards and worker pay are higher than the local areas or the state median...meaning the possibility of further ruinous lawsuits all around if anybody makes any changes.

And then there's the foregone conclusion that Disney will challenge this whole mess in court, which will cost the State millions of dollars, all so Ron DeSantis and a few Republican cronies could do a little showboating for their base...much of which isn't even in Florida and won't be affected by this crap.

And as regards Disney itself, it's a global corporation. They're not going to change their cultural views or their product because of one little state. Get over yourselves, Republicans. 

And the Mouse is ruthless. I put the odds that this results in the kind of legal conflagration that leaves somebody else paying the Florida GOP's and the state's legal bills pretty high. It'll be like how the RNC keeps bailing out Trump.

Unless of course they raise taxes, and that'll go over real well.

But none of these fucking people care, because to them it's all about hate and power. Plus they're stupid and don't care if they lose...or who else their bullshit hurts.

Because they hate everybody, each other, themselves, and the rest of us.

And they want to pass literal laws of hate, mandating hate, teaching hate. It will come to that. 

If we don't step up and stop this bullshit.

Don't take my word for it that homophobia and racism are at the root of this whole thing, Republicans are telling you this themselves when they rant about Disney being "Woke."

Somebody finally figured out why Florida banned all those Math textbooks, too. They banned textbooks that had any mentions of empathy or working together...stuff that was in current textbooks all the way back to when I was in school 40 years ago!

I'm just going to put this out there right now: There's two groups of people that Republicans support the rights of, in real terms; Bullies and toadies.

They don't really give a damn about rich people or corporations, unless those groups support their ideology of hate. And that's all it is, Republicans have nothing else left but autocracy, fascism and hate. They have divested themselves of everything else they ever even claimed to believe in. Hell, they want to raise taxes on everybody but a (likely) select few wealthy people.

What we're dealing with here is a cult of hate, of power, and of slavery.

And I'm going to warn you again...as I have since 2015...that These Fucking People believe in this hierarchical shit so much that they don't care if they end up being the slaves...so long as they think they're a better class of slaves then some of the other slaves are.

No wonder these motherfuckers are aligning themselves with Vladimir Putin, eh?

And Trump, right here, is continuing to preach his...or is it Vlad's...gospel of Sado-populist neo-Communism.

The "Conservative" movement has never been a "working people's movement" and I say that as a former conservative. I had to agree with liberals plenty back in the day just in terms of my own rights as a working-class American. And there was a time that it pained me to do so, but I can't say as Republicans have ever gone out of their way to stand up for my rights since at least George H.W. Bush.

And some bullshit ass motherfucker has the nerve to call this garbage the "Bull Moose Project?"

Theodore Roosevelt would beat these motherfuckers with his big stick.

Modern Republicans don't give a damn about working families, sure as hell not any who live in Orlando or have members that work for Disney or in any of the related Reedy Creek municipal stuff, let alone the local county workers they'll now be forced into competition with if all this crap goes through.

In fact, they're perfectly well willing to sacrifice any and all of that to appease *Checks Notes* Useless assholes like Donald Trump and Ron DeSantis.

What in the fuck is it with "Conservatives" and slavish submission to complete fucking losers like Trump who are only anybody because they inherited wealth, and mediocre white guys like Boris Johnson and Ron DeSantis who look like they should have topped out as night-shift middle management in a goddamned bus station? Or with weasel-looking little guys like Putin who try and overcompensate with a bunch of fake macho bullshit?

And worse...then they subordinate every aspect of life to such a person?

And then demand that others do so as well?

And it's not even a matter of "Public conduct" these sons of bitches want infinite reach into everyone's private conversations and lives as well, just like Putin and his New Soviet Union?

And yes, it will come to that if this shit is not stopped now.

I'll never fucking get it.

What the fuck kind of person do you have to be, that you'd rather be slave than free?

And all you ask in return is to hate?

Like I said, I'll never fucking get it. These people want to bow down before the goddamned Antichrist.

Слава Україна!
