Small Dick Energy (Left Behind Is A Lie II, Three.)

Ye have heard that it hath been said, Thou shalt love thy neighbor, and hate thine enemy.

But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you;

That ye may be the children of your Father which is in heaven: for he maketh his sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and send rain on the just and on the unjust.

For if ye love them which love you, what reward have ye? do not even the publicans the same?

And if ye salute your brethren only, what do ye more than others? do not even the publicans so?

Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect. ~Matthew 5:43-48

When I got up this morning, I saw this. In a Tweet about Pope Francis praying for peace, Franklin Graham whined about how "God" is being "removed" from government and society and "mocked" by the entertainment industry.

He then went on to say, basically, that if everybody believed in Jesus hard enough, there wouldn't be any wars.

Frank doesn't give a fuck about Peace, he desires Submission.

Hence the digs at government, society, and the entertainment industry...all of which not just in the United States but in most countries are entirely secular enterprises. I'm honestly sick of these people. I'm tired of their fake, insecure religiosity and the unending braying about how they're the only ones who are "right."

At the end of the day, the only thing These Fucking People accept as Gospel or ever will is their greed and shitty selfish reactionary social beliefs.

If Jesus Christ came to Earth and told them they had to care about other people to go to Heaven, these assholes would march straight into hell with their heads held high, still thinking they got one over on the rest of us somehow.

Oh, wait, I've read the Bible, including the Sermon On The Mount and wait, that's exactly what happened. He basically already came here and said exactly that. These Fucking People have basically spent the last two thousand years and change being in denial of that very fact.

So, I mean, shit...why would we expect them to stop now? 

We have too many men of science, too few men of God. We have grasped the mystery of the atom and rejected the Sermon On The Mount. The world has achieved brilliance without conscience. Ours is a world of nuclear giants and ethical infants. We know more about war than we know about peace, more about killing than we know about living. ~General Omar Bradley

Old Omar said that shit in 1948. It was published in a book in 1967.

By comparison, Ayn Rand wrote the first of her political-tract novels, The Fountainhead, in 1943 and her master opus, Atlas Shrugged in 1957. Same as it ever was, I guess.

These people collectively accepted Ayn Rand as their Lord and Savior decades ago. This shit is so pervasive it doesn't even get noted anymore as Rand gets replaced as the public figurehead by progressively worse and worse people...

Yesterday I saw that King Charles said striking UK EMS crew and nurses should get a pay raise and I've personally heard accounts of or seen people call the King "A Communist" and "Woke" for saying that people who perform a *Checks Notes* vital public service should get paid more.

King. Communist. One of these things is literally not like the other one, yo. Listen to yourselves.

Basically what these fuckers keep saying is that they think any level of human compassion is literally a decades-out-of-date mostly dead political philosophy?

And then this afternoon, I saw this one. Andrew Tate, a middling-level kickboxer and MMA guy who I barely remembered from when I used to follow all that stuff (But who has since become far more known for saying dumb, misogynistic shit online) out of the blue Tweeted at Greta Thunberg about how many cars he owns, and the specs of some of them and about conspicuous consumption in general.

As if she'd care...

She responded by telling him to email her at Smalldickenergy@getalife.com and the internet has been busy dunking on his stupid ass since then. I mean, dude, if you've got all this crap and you're so successful why do you feel the need to brag about it to *Checks Notes* a teenage girl who's massively publicly on record saying that the kind of chrome-plated assholery you espouse is against everything she stands for??

I mean, dude, what's even the damn point??

If this selfish-bastardized conspicuous consumption, lying and troll-ish behavior that collectively constitutes modern "Conservatism" doesn't radiate small dick energy, I don't know what the hell does. 

No less of a conservative titan than Ronald Reagan said that material computation alone does not measure the destiny of Man. We are spirits, not animals. I keep quoting this stuff for a damn reason.

This idea didn't start with The Gipper...it goes all the way back to Classical Greek philosophy. In point of fact, if you really look at it, the form and practice of Christianity probably owes more to Greco-Roman Platonism and especially the Platonic mysticism of many of the Roman elites than it ever did to Jesus Christ.

In point of fact, right now in Ukraine, the whole damn country is fighting...fiercely, joyfully almost, but most of all effectively...for those exact kind of values like the dignity of all people and higher spiritual beliefs that are supposed to define Western Civilization and against Neo-Soviet hordes and Russian imperialism that basically says one man has some kind of a right to own everything in the world and that people should exalt in being his slaves. That's not my opinion...that's literally what Alexander Pushkin wrote.

And the funny part of this shit is that like Andrew Tate, who is mixed-race and yet espouses far-right politics...Alexander Pushkin was mixed-race, in his case specifically Afro-Russian.

I'm serious in saying this, that fundamentally these people believe in nothing. If Atheistic Communism or Randian Objectivism was an open path to Power, they'd take it. This will probably be an unpopular opinion, but I think even White Supremacy itself is ultimately just a tool, it's negotiable.

So long as the non-white person on the other side of the table is some mediocre useless dude-bro just like them, that is.

You want to know how Whacked-out America is in the grand scheme of things? We're the country that goes and invades a country halfway around the world, attempts to rebuild their government and society and puts a sign up over an aircraft hangar where their new air force parks its little third-country turboprop strike aircraft that's in English (Spoken by 6% of the population) with a URL on the sign (18.4% of the population has internet access) in a country where approximately 37.3% of the people are even literate.

And then we wonder why the average Afghan person didn't take us seriously, how we had no plan but to stay there indefinitely...until we did arbitrarily decided to get out...and why we ultimately lost the war??

Because, as George Carlin famously said, we let people who are obsessed with dicks make all the decisions, that's why. And then we let them get bored and wander off instead of seeing things through.

What these fucking small-dicked dudes want is for the world to have to treat them like they have big dicks, and give them the adulation their egos crave, to accept that their cars or their guns or their physical strength or political bullshit cover up the vast, cowering emptiness within and the inability to accept who they are that it generates, while buying into the "We are animals not spirits" physicality that tries to make things like penis size and wealth the measure of a man and eternally seeks a better rationalization for selfishness.

Every last one of these idiots think they gonna be Vladimir Putin someday, every last one of them sees himself as that End Times Antichrist "World Emperor" and thinks if they wrap it in enough Christian talk or macho bullshit about their dicks, that they can even get one over on God. Even their view of the afterlife is that heaven isn't heaven if everybody gets to go there!

And you wonder why I say they want somebody worse than Trump?

Because it's all bullshit, much of it perpetrated by the same kind of "men" and because the rest of us put up with this shit.

You want a better country? You have to be a better citizen. You get what you tolerate.

And we tolerate...this. Just think about that for a second.

More to the point, when the hell do we make it stop?

The martyrs of history were not fools, and our honored dead who gave their lives to stop the advance of the Nazis didn't die in vain. Where, then, is the road to peace? Well, it's a simple answer after all. You and I have the courage to say to our enemies, "There is a price we will not pay." There is a point beyond which they must not advance. This is the meaning in the phrase of Barry Goldwater's "peace through strength." Winston Churchill said that "the destiny of man is not measured by material computation. When great forces are on the move in the world, we learn we are spirits — not animals." And he said, "There is something going on in time and space, and beyond time and space, which, whether we like it or not, spells duty." ~Ronald Reagan

Слава Україна!

No sympathy for the devil; keep that in mind. Buy the ticket, take the ride...and if it occasionally gets a little heavier than what you had in mind, well...maybe chalk it up to forced consciousness expansion: Tune in, freak out, get beaten. ~Hunter S. Thompson, Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas
