If this story - about an American turning salt water into hydrogen that can be used as fuel - is true, I think the scaredy-pants liberals who have been lording it over the rest of us, while whining, terrified, about Global Warming and Mid-East oil (Those sky-is-falling Chicken Littles, like Al Gore, who decided to go for scaring everyone silly while forgetting the ability of American know-how to come up with solutions to our problems) are going to be in for a pretty rough time from here on out. Here, let me be first:For behaving like power-hungry, holier-than-thou, pseudo-nazis during a "possible" crisis, it's official that nobody - nobody - wants to hear a motherfucking thing out of you anymore - on anything. You've proven that you are this country's "weakest links" - the people who will be expected, for now on, to shut-the-fuck-up and not say another motherfucking thing until you're able to prove to the rest of us that you're appropriately ashamed of yourself for your bullshit outlook on your country, your people, and life in general. How fucking dare you? Who did you think you were fucking with? Who did you think you were? You're just lucky we're not the kind of country that would shave your heads and march you through the streets for public ridicule because that's what you deserve.
You're a bunch of fucking pussies, who have shown your true colors for all to see, because when the time came to be good, brave, citizens - and get to work - you opted instead for mindless hopeless scare-mongering and finger-wagging, like the horrible, horrible, new wage assholes you are. Your time is done. Move to Canada, or France or someplace else where your cowardice will be appreciated, you fucking little power-mad recycling jerks. This is no place for you:
This is The United States of America - Land of the Free and Home of the Brave - and, as the name implies, no fucking place for cowards.
There - whew -I think I'm done. Get the idea?
Tune into Rush Limbaugh, or another appropriate conservative outlet, for more real fun, you fucking frightened little scaredy-cat bitches.
American patriotism is the purest form of:
Pretty much.
ReplyDeleteBut lets treat this monstrous rant as though it should be taken seriously. There are a number of things wrong with this post viz:
When Republicans were still playing bum buddies with Big Oil and all the traditional polluters of the world, it was those on the Left who were exploring (with, or more often without, funding) alternative technologies. It was communes that first installed working solar and windpower technologies. They weren't scaremongering, they were taking action.
They were criticised at every turn by the traditional vested interests as they were a significant threat: not only would they potentially wipe out the influence of Big Oil and Mining by providing a cheaper and more bountiful energy supply, but they threatened to create an entirely new dynamic. Once you've set up the infrastructure, these alternative energy sources are FREE. There's no profits to be made at all so the multinationals couldn't just switch energy supplies - power would literally be in the hands of the people.
Secondly, the boffin who figured out how to extract this hydrogen source of energy is a, what, scientist. You or I could never arrive at a solution like this, unless we were also lab coat wearers.
But weren't you saying scientists were suspect/not to be trusted? So it's only scientists who confirm coral bleaching or increased arctic temperatures that are bunkum but ones who do something to 'shut up cowards' are hunky dory. Very selective of you.
this post is pretty worthless all up and no better in kind than slamming Bush & co with a string of insults and invective. If you want to be taken seriously, you've got to curb your anger and start arguing rationally.
Though if you did that, half of your blog would vanish in a puff of smoke.
Berko,
ReplyDeleteOn the one hand, I'm glad to see you're looking at the whole site - most Lefties don't, so they miss the show. On the other hand, you're such a Lefty, you miss the "big picture" - and all nuance - anyway, so it's kind of hard to talk to you:
What you call "Big Oil," I call "human beings engaged in a business that's vitally important to life as we know it." Big difference. You see them as the enemy, while I see them as part of the reason you and I can chat like this (since our computers, and almost everything else we use, are made from petroleum.) It's that ability, to demonize the very people who make a decent life possible, that makes the Left worth demonizing, Berk. Think about it.
"Weren't you saying scientists were suspect/not to be trusted?"
No - that's that lack of nuance I spoke of - I've said I love science but there's more going on there than you imagine - nobody's pure in our NewAge world. Like smoke, it's crept into almost all corners, and infected everything - including scientists. I've praised them as often as I've dissed them, mainly to wake them up from their belief NewAge hasn't gotten to them because they're so smart, but they're learning now. I'm proud of the change I've seen in science bloggers, like Orac, finally taking the influence of spirituality in science and medicine seriously.
Maybe I'm not the greatest of writers, but (considering I'm just a guy with limited resources, and time, and, except with two fingers, I can't even type) I'm doing what I can. You're gonna have to come down from NewAge's Left-wing Morality Mountain to understand us common folk, Berk. I'm science's best friend, because I do exactly what they ask: question their conclusions. You Lefties want to be sheep, which doesn't speak well of you.
"This post is pretty worthless all up and no better in kind than slamming Bush & co with a string of insults and invective."
One more time, Man: I've given you a lot of facts, too. None of which you have an answer for. Like most Lefties, you like playing being a pinball, running from topic to topic, saying, "Well, what about this? And what about this?" without ever conceding what was clearly answered, and asking yourself how you could've been so wrong - and what that means. Bush & Co. aren't in prison, or accused of war crimes, or anything you think they ought to be. Doesn't that ever give you pause? You're not stupid, Berk - I'm sure of that much - so why do you insist on believing the opposite of reality? That should be the question that keeps you up at night. That's part of the "cult" influence I see. It's not merely a difference of opinion. You're lost - and determined to be a problem for decent people - that's worthy of anyone's anger.
About that anger: This blog is called The Macho Response because I've found out, the hard way, that being nice to Lefties and cultists doesn't work. You guys take that as a sign of weakness - a license to do what you want. Just like hippies in the 60's had to get their heads busted, or shot, to make them stop being a pain to working people, today's knucleheads have to be confronted as well. So, as far as me calming down so I'll appear more rational to you, don't count on it:
This is a fight - and I'm in it.
Nice to hear from you though: I (almost) consider you a buddy now.
