Buy The Ticket, Take The Ride (American Revelation XVIII, Four.)

I know thy works, that thou art neither cold nor hot: I would thou were cold or hot. So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spew thee out of my mouth. Because thou sayest, I am rich, and increased with goods, and have need of nothing; and knowest not that thou art wretched, and miserable, and poor, and blind, and naked: ~Revelation 3:15-17

Simon Adebisi: See, we are all of us bad men, even you. I know you have come to destroy me.

Kareem Said: Simon, I don't want to destroy you. I want to help you change.

Simon Adebisi: That is what would destroy me.

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

I saw this shit last night on break at work.

Richard Spencer, the fucking face-punched Nazi who pretty much defined all the Alt-Right Nazi and MAGA shit for its first year or so, says he's voting for Kamala Harris.

And the Lord Said Unto Richard "LOL, fuck you, man."

I wrote about This Fucking Guy and his lukewarm "Cultural Christianity" and his bullshit-ass fake White Jesus. Hell, it was my first blog post that actually hit it big.

So yeah, L-Oh-Fucking-L. Kiss my ass, Dick.

Buy the ticket, take the ride, yo.

Have fun in hell, you idiot.

As I've said before, the day eventually comes when this shit turns on pretty much everybody...and now it's Richard Spencer's turn, I guess? Since all this bullshit abandoned this loser a long time ago (or at least made him feel like it did, so now he's switching sides) I feel pretty comfortable in reiterating that Trump's day will probably come, too. The day will come when MAGA passes even him by, when no one cares anymore, when they find somebody they like better.

And oh yes, they will. That's the trouble with mobs, they're fickle.

Of course, one could also make the case that people like Richard Spencer and The Proud Boys and all that crap became irrelevant far more because their bullshit is just...standard Republican Party doctrine now. Who the fuck needs this dude when Donald Trump and JD Vance are being far more blatant and going further in what they say they'd do than Spencer even so much as proposed to be or do in 2016-2017 and they've got the Project 2025 crowd, Stephen Miller, etc. The list goes on.

Of course, it was all a game to Dick, just like it's all a game to JD so he can see how far ahead he'll get. But for different reasons, Trump and a lot of the 1990's type religious-Right schmucks backing him are deadly serious. For Trump, it's basically he wants to stay out of jail, and maybe stop the narcissistic decomposition he's been undergoing lately. 

And, for the Project 2025 crowd, this is all they've ever wanted to do for 30 years since Newt Gingrich first opened his yap about his Contract On America, hypocritical Catholic horseshit and scorched-earth Partisan warfare. (And all that while cheating on his wife, no less! I mean, that deserved some sort of a medal for Stupid Republican Tricks in terms of today's Republican Party. In 1998 it just got him kicked out, and deservedly so. Things have changed, and not for the better.) 

This guy didn't change, he just fell down and got trampled in the Lockstep March Ever Rightward, and now he's mad about it. Richard Spencer didn't even get shunted aside and violently kicked out like Dick and Liz Cheney did. He didn't leave in disgust or for his own safety like David French, [Tea Party] Joe Walsh, Olivia Troye, Rick Wilson and so many others.

The fascists just...forgot him, I guess.

But then, why wouldn't they??

It's not just that he's...forgettable. It's that his boring-ass White-bread fascism couldn't compete with the endless variety of Shiny Things dangled in front of the mob by the current crowd. 

Meanwhile, Trump is daily spewing even more nonsensical racist bullshit.

I mean, for one thing, Trump ain't "White."

Dude, the motherfucker's Orange.

And things ain't been jacked enough yet that Orange Is The New White, I think.

And sooner or later...probably sooner, in fact...the mob will demand something of which Trump is incapable. Whether he can't mentally or physically do it or simply won't do whatever it is, I cannot say. Whether his legions of Turd-polishers turn on him or simply fail to prevent the mob from doing so, I don't know. But the day's gonna come when they find somebody worse.

They already want that.

These fucking people are measurably more nuts than they were in 2016.

There's a bit of crap going around that some of the hard-core MAGA Nazis think a Harris presidency will bring them closer to a genuine Fascist getting elected sooner. I don't know if Spencer is one of those, or if he's simply given up.

But the day will come when Trump gets traded in for a cooler wannabe-dictator.

The day may well come when a much older, more addled and physically worse-off Trump (if he gets his voting rights back at some point) gets wheeled onto a FOX News set and is asked about some successive Republican candidate and looks at the camera and says "Fuck that guy, I'm voting for Walz" or "Yeah, I said vote for the [Insert slur of choice here] 'cause that'd still be better than [Insert Random Legacy Republican or MAGA-successor] that guy was always a loser." Although if we're being honest it'd probably be because they stole the spotlight he thinks should be on him.

Yes, even (perhaps especially) if we stop this current shit on Tuesday...these fucking people can and will get worse.

We'd best plan for that shit now.

For one thing, start punching more Nazis, it evidently worked on at least a couple of them.

Freedom isn't free, sometimes you have to fight for it.

You either believe in freedom or you don't.

You want to stop this shit??

That means one motherfucker of a lot of us better show up on Tuesday.

And even then, these fucking assholes will probably still try something stupid.

Be prepared.

No Going Back.

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

Freedom is the freedom to say that two plus two make four. If that is granted, all else follows. ~George Orwell, 1984.
