Here There Be Monsters (The Killing Fields, Again, One.)

“'When a foreigner resides among you in your land, do not mistreat them. The foreigner residing among you must be treated as your native-born. Love them as yourself, for you were foreigners in Egypt. I am the LORD your God.”

~Leviticus 19:33-34, New International Version.

Why, why, why, why is it that most of the people who are against abortion are people you wouldn't wanna fuck in the first place? Boy, these conservatives are really something, aren't they? They're all in favor of the unborn. They will do anything for the unborn. But once you're born, you're on your own. Pro-life conservatives are obsessed with the fetus from conception to nine months. After that, they don't want to know about you. They don't want to hear from you. No nothing. No neonatal care, no day care, no head start, no school lunch, no food stamps, no welfare, no nothing. If you're preborn, you're fine; if you're preschool, you're fucked. Conservatives don't give a shit about you until you reach military age. Then they think you're just fine. Just what they've been looking for. Conservatives want live babies so they can raise them to be dead soldiers. Pro-life... pro-life... These people aren't pro-life, they're killing doctors! What kind of pro-life is that? What, they'll do anything they can to save a fetus but if it grows up to be a doctor they just might have to kill it? They're not pro-life. You know what they are? They're anti-woman. Simple as it gets, anti-woman. They don't like them. They don't like women. They believe a woman's primary role is to function as a brood mare for the state. ~George Carlin

Thou Shalt Not Kill. ~Exodus 20:13

I have questions.

Somebody wanna tell me just what the fuck is wrong with "Conservatives??"

Trump ain't even been elected yet, looks very likely to lose, and these fucking people are already plotting militarized mass deportations?? What the fuck?? 

I'm going to guess these ass-clowns just don't care about getting anything built, having an economy, or literally having food on the table. Seriously, I live in Northern Michigan and there's multiple industries up here that are dominated by Latino migrant workers (many of them with Texas addresses per their consular ID's and passports that they show me when I sell them beer) and the reason for that is simply that White People...especially White Men...don't want to do agricultural work, or construction/physical labor, or work in service industries anymore.

Likewise our medical fields up here have a lot of people from Africa, India and the Middle East, last night at work I waited on a chunky brown-skinned lady wearing a Hijab and hospital scrubs, she smiled real big when I said "As-Salaam Alaykum" to her, though. I couldn't even begin to tell you where her last name originated...and I don't care. Hell, knowing what this area was like 30 years ago, I'm glad she's here.

Why?? Because other people have the right to exist without me even commenting on it!

And the reason for her being here (I mean seriously you have to understand how Middle-of-Nowhere it is here) is that White People don't want to apply themselves and get the college education needed to do those kind of jobs either.

And they ain't gonna start to do either if you take away all the Brown people.

(And no, getting rid of abortion or birth control or any other damn thing will not fix any of this.)

As I've said before, my doctor here in small-town Northern Michigan is from Sudan. I'm still here for two reasons, that guy and my V.A. Health care...and I've only had to go down to Saginaw twice since I've been here (which is good, because I don't especially like that hospital.)

So if you don't want to vote for Joe Biden, you'd best just get used to there being not much in the way of services of any kind. (Extra Big Ass Taco! Now With More Molecules!) At least not for you.

But don't worry, there'll be plenty of violence and racism.

It's already here. Nex Benedict, a nonbinary Native American teenager got beat up in Oklahoma recently, and they ultimately died of their injuries. This kid was physically assaulted, had obvious wounds, and the fucking school couldn't be bothered to call an ambulance or round up and punish the kids responsible. 

Oh, the police are investigating now...but one gets the vibe that it's only because their town has become a national story and they're probably trying to avoid a Federal investigation of them and their stank-ass town.

Although if you consider the fact that the people doing this shit don't know what words mean (like Slavery) or what those words imply in terms of human relationships...they're probably going to lose whatever fights they start where it's not some skinny trans kid vs. six other people. 

And I don't really expect they'll hire people to carry guns who are any less stupid than they are.

I mean, how fucking Lost, in a literally Biblical, specifically Christian sense of what that word means, do you have to be to look at a loser shit-bag like Donald Trump...who's basically an atheist if he can't be convinced that HE is God...and who's dragged their Party through the mud and lost them election after election and think "That guy is my Lord and Savior. I don't need Jesus no more!"

Folks, believing in Trump Christ is exactly how you go to Hell, and do it with somebody laughing at you.

And these fucking idiots want to start compiling databases of women who've had abortions or what the fuck ever??

Yeah, I'll just let you have to think about where letting utter fanatics do shit like that could go wrong.

Expect a lot of names to end up on there for no valid reason, even by their own "rules" for one.

Because that's just how Crusades and Inquisitions and Jihads and any kind of belief in bullshit-ass "Redemptive" violence work. There will be quotas, they will outsource this shit to the dumbest fucking randos possible...and do it to try to shield themselves from prosecution and tribunals and a bloody Epuration Sauvage later when they lose.

These fucking people don't care about Life, they don't want a more "Christian" nation, or a more conservative society.

They want an orgy of blood and fire and murder and war and White Male antisocial behavior and no consequences short of Death, so all they see is the flash, Sudden Nerve Trauma wipes them right out and they don't ever have to think or feel anything about what they've done.

And those who survive will drown themselves in addictions.

That's right. I said it.

Every last one of these sons of bitches believes it's all over when they die and they're nothing but Worm Food.

Because if they believed in an Afterlife and legitimately believed in an all-knowing, all-seeing God who would punish them for their sins....these dudes wouldn't act like this.

(And if they do have some kind of theistic belief but believe they can bullshit God, if anything that's even worse.)

These motherfuckers are telling us right now what they want.

And it's Anything but America.

It's Anything but "All people are created equal and endowed by their Creator with inalienable rights."

It's Anything but "Love Thy Neighbor"

It's Anything but best practices and the way things have been done for three generations.

They have endless contempt for all that stuff because it makes them not feel like the most special-est kid in the class.

They want the Killing Fields of Khmer Rouge Cambodia, but with an Applebee's and a Mall.

And then they have the nerve to get mad when you call them bigots and anti-American scumbags or point out that they're throwing in with the enemies of everything they ever claimed to stand for.

But they'd rather fill in all the swimming pools and then White Flight off to somewhere else anyway than live with the rest of us. Not that I think even they have thought about where they'd go. They have ideas, but it won't work out how they think it will. 

They'd rather bow down to the Hammer And Sickle than salute the Stars And Stripes because they think America is "Stupid" for being "Liberal."

They'd rather burn America down around their own ears than have to share it with Black or Brown people or white non-fascists or "Liberals" who by the way is everybody from "Far-right but believes in democracy" like Tea Party Joe Walsh all the way to AOC and Bernie Sanders and actual Tankies that don't necessarily fall for Putinism.

And somehow, these fuckers got it in their head that Russia is a Right-Wing Nation, and it's perfect because they have shopping carts and the Authoritarianism makes the burgers taste better or some bullshit...just ask Tucker Carlson.

America needs to face the fact that current "Conservatives" would gladly murder anybody they thinks challenges their mostly-imagined-limitless "Authority" (or just murder all the rest of us for chips and cheese.) 

Then we need to decide "do we want to do something about it or just get murdered?" 

Or you can spend your life on your knees in front of monsters, waiting for the axe to fall.

Look, I didn't make these rules, they were permitted to become this way.

But sometimes, you have to look at what is and make a choice based on basic shit like self-preservation. And no, you don't always get to set the choices. But you still gotta make one.

Look, I'm a disabled veteran, I'm a working person in this damn country. I'm used to getting a raw deal, but that doesn't stop me from doing what I can to try and make things better.

Because if you want a better country, you have to be a better citizen.

Either you believe in freedom or you don't.

And if you don't believe that all people have the right to be free, then what you believe in ain't freedom.

These fucking people have taken the existence of Donald Trump as a permission slip to do whatever the fuck they want. And a fair number of them want to be fascists and murderers. They want a world of Crusades and Inquisitions and Slavery...and they don't really care if it eats them, too, just so they get to wield the whip against some poor helpless person for a minute or two.

And if they break off a piece of America like I think they will try to, they're going to wage endless war against the rest of us.

Either you have the guts to step up and stop them (and yes, if enough of us do it we can stop all this now) to stand up for your own life much less that of the defenseless or the innocent...or you don't.

Here There Be Monsters, proceed accordingly.

Last Post

A lot of these cultural crimes I've been complaining about can be blamed on the Baby Boomers, something else I'm getting tired of hearing about...whiny, narcissistic, self-indulgent people with a simple philosophy: "GIMME IT, IT'S MINE!" "GIMME THAT, IT'S MINE!" These people were given everything. Everything was handed to them. And they took it all: sex, drugs, and rock and roll, and they stayed loaded for 20 years and had a free ride. But now they're staring down the barrel of middle-age burnout, and they don't like it. So they've turned self-righteous. They want to make things harder on younger people. They tell 'em, abstain from sex, say no to drugs; as for the rock and roll, they sold that for television commercials a long time ago...so they could buy pasta machines and stairmasters and soybean futures! They're cold, bloodless people. It's in their slogans, it's in their rhetoric: "No pain, no gain." "Just do it." "Life is short, play hard." "Shit happens, Deal with it." "Get a life." These people went from 'do your own thing' to 'just say No'. They went from 'love is all you need' to 'whoever winds up with the most toys wins'. And they went from cocaine to Rogaine. And you know something, they're still counting grams, only now it's fat grams. And the worst of it is, the rest of us have to watch these commercials on TV for Levi's loose-fitting jeans and fat-ass Docker pants, because these degenerate yuppie Boomer cocksuckers couldn't keep their hands off the croissants and the Häagen-Dazs, and their big fat asses have spread all over and they have to wear fat-ass Docker pants. Fuck these Boomers, fuck these yuppies—and fuck everybody, now that I think of it. Sometimes, in comedy, you have to generalize.
