We have become a Nazi monster in the eyes of the whole world, a nation of bullies and bastards who would rather kill than live peacefully. We are not just Whores for power and oil, but killer whores with hate and fear in our hearts. We are human scum, and that is how history will judge us. No redeeming social value. Just whores. Get out of our way, or we'll kill you. Who does vote for these dishonest shitheads? Who among us can be happy and proud of having all this innocent blood on our hands? Who are these swine? These flag-sucking half-wits who get fleeced and fooled by stupid little rich kids like George Bush? They are the same ones who wanted to have Muhammad Ali locked up for refusing to kill gooks. They speak for all that is cruel and stupid and vicious in the American character. They are the racists and hate mongers among us; they are the Ku Klux Klan. I piss down the throats of these Nazis. And I am too old to worry about whether they like it or not. Fuck them.

Now, mind you, I don't agree with those students either, but I did swear an oath to the Constitution once, so there's that. Like it or not (and sometimes freedom means tolerating shit you don't agree with) this is America and apparently the (Republican, appointed by Republicans) leadership of those two universities still manages to understand that, one way or another. Now, mind you, Rufo didn't give a shit about Anti-Semitism five weeks ago. In fact, he's one of those people to whom "Freedom" means "Using anti-gay slurs and saying the N-word" and shit like that. Remember, with these fucking people, anything is only as good as how big of a stick it makes for beating the people they don't like.
And reactionaries, particularly the kinds of reactionaries who are still obsessing about shit 99% of the rest of us support or don't care to argue about anymore...like LGBT rights...those people don't build starships or give a shit about the goddamned future.
If they gave a shit about the future they wouldn't be reactionaries.
Give it up. The United States of America is a secular country and outside of religion, there's no valid reason that LGBT people shouldn't have the same rights as any other American person.
And variations of that pretty much go for everybody else here too, whether the issue is religion or shitty Republican politics.
Frankly, if you ask me just the fact that Evangelical Christians all looked at each other in June of 2015 and thought that Donald Trump was "The Guy who could get it for 'em" should discredit most of American Christianity in the eyes of pretty much everybody for all time.
Republicans hate America.
Like, seriously, where do these motherfuckers...who expressly want to turn the United States of America into some mutant combination of 1970's Uganda under Idi Amin and North Korea under Kim Jong Il...but Republican, somehow...get off saying "Make America Great Again?"
Let alone doing it while bowing down to Russia, a fourth-rate autocratic shithole that...outside of Moscow, St. Petersburg and Vladivostok, hasn't progressed much beyond the late 18th century except for possessing a raging fuck-ton of weapons that America would've considered modern 40 or 50 years ago. Russia cannot even defeat Ukraine...and these motherfuckers want America to be like Russia or bow down to the Hammer and Sickle??
I remember when talk like that would get you beat up...by Republicans...and certainly would be career-ending (and likely not just so in politics) for anybody outside of places like the campus of UC Berkeley or whatever buildings the Communist Party USA still owned back then.
Motherfucker, I've done drugs and I can't make that shit make any sense!
These fucking people have become so "Conservative" and/or reactionary and/or high off sniffing the methane from Donald Trump's cheeseburger farts that they want to be the Democratic People's Republic of Korea??
Do I have this right??
Meanwhile, the other two thirds of America keeps moving forward.
For example, the B-21A Raider, the Next NEXT Generation Stealth Bomber, took its first flight today.
And all Republicans keep trying to do is stand in the way, usually while also lying about it.
Sooner or later, if these fucking people aren't driven from office en masse either by the voters or by mobs wielding tar and feathers, this is going to cause a crackup. One part of this train simply does not want to be part of it.
No, they really don't have any kind of alternative vision, they have fantasy, ideological hokum and religion that'd make them the Cuba of the 21st Century, living off Russian money and a few niche or subsidized exports...if they get their way and break off a piece of America for themselves...with the vast majority of whoever can't get away stuck living in shocking poverty while the rest of the world keeps moving forward around and without them.
The things that scare me are #1 There's a lot of Republican voters who'd be fine with that.
And #2 Whatever excuse for a government they have...likely figureheads led about by the nose, or far more likely the dick...by Russian "Advisors" would tell them they were all titans of Conservative Ideology and somehow had it better than other people somewhere else...and these fucking MAGA morons would believe that shit!
If you want a better country, you have to be a better citizen...and this ain't it, yo.
If you want to cast pearls before swine for Donald Trump in the name of Republican Bad Faith, go ahead. I can't really stop you.
But you don't get to make that choice for the rest of us, fuck you.
Слава Україна!
If we lose freedom here, there is no place to escape to. This is the last stand on Earth. And this idea that government is beholden to the people, that it has no other source of power except to sovereign people, is still the newest and most unique idea in all the long history of man's relation to man. This is the issue of this election. Whether we believe in our capacity for self-government or whether we abandon the American revolution and confess that a little intellectual elite in a far-distant capital can plan our lives for us better than we can plan them ourselves. ~Ronald Reagan

Give not that which is holy unto the dogs, neither cast your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet, and turn again and rend you. ~Matthew 7:6
