MY COMMENTERS' REVOLUTION | 2006-06-08

Joe, Peter Pain, Tim, Elizabeth, Shari, Anonowitz and all the rest of you, I am not so proud of you as I am of Bob.

It isn't that you comment, but that you realize how superior you are to the tens of millions who have not outgrown their college "educations."

When you look down on them, when you LAUGH at them, you are realizing a spirit that my life has , after many years of thought and experience, been devoted to.

All those years they have blocked intellectual developement. All those years they have used the shallowest devices to stop reasonable thought in its tracks. It has been an agony for me to spend my life trying desperately to get the simplest piece of logic through.

It is a special pain to know that you are dealing with retards who are put on pedestals.

I don't care about the pedestals. If they could be like European royalty, clothes horses nobody took seriously, I could just laugh and go on.

But the judges running around in black dresses are really, seriously considered to be The Constitution of the United States. Those Harvard professors are really regarded as INTELLECTUALS.

Those preachers and priests waving their arms over disgusting mixed couples are really looked at as Confirming God's Covenant.

The O'Reillys and the Colmses are really regarded as Both Sides in some kind of National Debate.

And it is MY country they are Both Sides of.

There is no debate here.

It is your world or it is their world.

Everybody knows that.

There is no debate over the Iraq War. It is product of decades of silly reactions by silly people.

Schools have FAILED.

It has all FAILED.

SAY so.

Revolution.

The second paragraph says the most. Its almost too easy to utterly

destroy the "respectable", and to think that I only have a HS education,

which I rub in their faces. But then again if some Spanish hillbillies

can destroy the superstitious Aztecs we should stand a chance against

the morons of the PC Empire.

"It has all FAILED."

It has taken me a long time to understand this fully, but I think I finally get it now.

Here's the problem I've been having: I could see how "it has all failed" from OUR perspective, but not from THEIRS as well. In other words, I've had a hard time outgrowing the idea that the bloody, genocidal mess we're facing is exactly what our enemies WANT and have been WORKING for. For THEM, I was thinking, it hasn't failed at all. It's all been a spectacular SUCCESS!

In other words, my problem was that I was confusing FAILURE with DEFEAT, which is to say I was falling back into pre-Bob habits of thought. You'd be the last person to call this a defeat, of course. When you say it's a FAILURE, you mean it's a FAILURE. Our enemies are harming themselves just as much as they're harming us. To imagine that they PLANNED it to come out this way simply gives them too much credit, which is precisely the best way to perpetuate the problem.

The only way to save ourselves is to refuse to this useless rabble even the respect implied by the word "enemy". To quote back to Bob one of his best lines ever: "Our symbol is not the hawk. It is not the dove. It is The Bird."

I never, ever thought I would leave the Republican Party. I guess I

didn't: in reality, it left me.

Grad school has helped me get away from the Bob Jones syncophants and

the Bushies. It wasn't ideology: the length of time it took me to

write papers and read my assignments forced me to choose how to

spend my time outside of class.

The Republicans weren't listening to me, anyway.

I just don't have time for people who refuse to LISTEN to me.

The dominion of silly people will give way under the greater dominion of misery hardship and real conflict and there is no silly person more silly than a person so silly they do not know the real foundations of their comfort and security. They take far far far too much for granted.

It's people like us, "the tuned up" ones, who are the real players in this world. We are like our real enemies, we know reality and do not suffer illusions.

BW is a teacher of the political terrain and of political attack and the future belongs to those who attack. Faced with real consequences the silly ones will convert overnight. They always do.

I have said so and I have paid for it through the teeth.

I will keep saying so.
