Get Smart: A Belief Works Without It Being Seen

So what's today's all-important lesson?

Today's lesson is the same as yesterday's:

We're stupid.

But not just any kind of stupid but major fucking stupid - as a people - and if we don't recognize it, we're doomed.

How's that for a happy go lucky message to start your day?

Fuck you.

Look, we told you, and told you, and told you, but your punk asses don't listen (make a note: not listening? That's what we call a major flaw in your make-up. You need to work on that, pronto.) so you're repeating the same mistakes in different ways and thinking you're making "change" when you've got your representative of that change in the White House and can see how it's going.

What's wrong with you?



Above is that video we posted a few days ago. (Yes, we want you to watch it again, but this time ignoring the George W. Bush parts because, as we told you, the bitch is a socialist and was/is wrong about her political views, as history has already shown us.)

Today we want you to pay attention to the parts where she says, over the last decade, the decade when Baby Boomers were in charge - the biggest, most dominant generation in history - if you gave them accurate information, you were marginalized, and, if you told the truth, you got fired.

That's what's important to us now.

Recognizing how much damage a huge gang of jerks (and that's what Boomers are) could insist on doing to good, intelligent people's lives, and then trying to not repeat the Boomer's mistake.

What's the mistake? You idiot, are you new around here?

The mistake was believing NewAgers!

The only reason why no one is listening to the truth is because they built a bullshit culture convinced they can change shit with their minds.

It's that whole, stupid, Maharishi Mahesh Yogi nonsense, writ large, and by now everybody ought to know better than to believe it, but they don't!

Like how many friends do you have who meditate and/or do yoga?

Wait - let us rephrase that - how many idiots do you know who pay to have their lives wasted and insist on trying to convince others to do the same - while regularly railing about evangelical Christians for basically the same behavior and beliefs?

You fucking saps.

Like those before you, you're fucking pathetic in how short-sighted you've allowed yourselves to become, unable to see anything beyond your own eyes.

But why are we surprised?

You're the kids of Boomers.

But, still, you've got to stop all of this.

You've got to get out of the lotus position, roll up the yoga mats, and then help your neighbor to do the same.

The two of you can empty out the medicine cabinets of all your "alternative" medicines, and then, go to the pharmacy and buy some real ones that work.

Throw out, or turn off, anything that reeks of Oprah Winfrey (which includes the spinoffs by Dr. Phil or Dr. Oz or that sunny bitch with the cooking show) Tony Robbins, Andrew Weil, Kevin Trudeau, Shirley MacLaine, Jane Fonda, or even the younger outliers like Jenny McCarthy, Madonna, Angelina Jolie, Lady GaGa - anybody that never got off, or seemed to have been born on, the Magical Mystery Tour bus - just abandon them all.

Immediately.

That means NOW.

Remember "Turn On, Tune In, Drop Out"?

This is the same exact thing, except you're tuning back onto reality, and dropping out of the stupid matrix these rich fucks have constructed for you to live in.

Don't think so? Well then, answer us this:

Other than dying, how easy is it to avoid Oprah Winfrey?

That bitch follows you everywhere.

She's in the supermarket checkout lines.

She's on TV.

When she's not on TV one of her chosen minions is on you - and the entire culture encourages it!

Why is that so much better to watch and believe in than this:



See the bitch with the hammer?
That's TMR - and it should be you, too.

Smash the NewAge in it's every manifestation and we might have a chance to regain our footing.

Ignore this message and we're going to keep sliding off a cliff of our own design.

Our enemies are watching, both foreign and domestic, and the domestic ones are all NewAgers.

They told you to vote for Barack Obama.

What you get in return, for listening to them, really couldn't be more plain.

    The whole history of Western thought dashed on these precious words:

    "the bitch is a socialist"

    It is enticing, this call to arms to accept your philosophy on life. Imagine if, instead of researching a topic, weighing the pros and cons, working up an argument that can ward off all detractors and bring more to the cause; imagine instead being able to sit there stewing in a darkened corner then, with one imperious wave of a hand declare

    "the bitch is a socialist"

    no need to know but one cogent reason as to why she is wrong, no one will listen to her from now on.

    Why stop there really? Instead of engaging in intelligent debate, stop and shout "you're a New Ager" and look for other similarly dim boot camp followers to shred all argument by picking on some physical feature or habit of dress.

    There's nothing new in labeling an entire alliance of thought under one banner, but you are as in error as everyone who preceded you with this premise and, therefore, the bulk of your argument is unsubstantiated.

    But if we cross over to the dark side - subscribe to the Macho Response - then we don't have to give a fuck if we're losing on points, we'll just trip up the other guy and spit some invective.

    If we get called on it we can always say "the other guys did the same thing to us" thus excusing it for all time from being shitty behavior.

    I can see the appeal. But it would mean unlearning so much and it's very hard to put the genie back in the bottle.
    I could never glamourize ignorance and mindless jingoism the way you do because I haven't seen good results. If dressing yourself in the flag and making lots of racket about wanting your country back from the democratically elected President is to replace careful thought on these issues, I'm afraid it's not for me.

  2. Jesus Christ, man, get a grip on yourself:

    This is The Macho Response - not the goddamn Encyclopedia Brittanica! You want a billion words to explain why socialism is bad, click through the blog, find a tag for "socialism", locate a link and read your ass off. I did. Now, rather than explaining the shit for every dummy that happens across here - which I used to do - I'm screaming "the bitch is a socialist!"

    You don't like it? Hey - the internet is huuuuge!

    Yeah, I've read all the definitions of socialist and I've had a look around the Internet too. The reason I say that your style sucks is because by simply labelling something, you don't get to assess what the best solution is. You're asking people to support a position based on a blanket insult - and a misleading one at that.

    I've looked at plenty of right wing blogs too. And I've yet to see a prevailing reason why Sara Palin is equipped to rescue the US economy or ensure a better standard of living. You'd think these things would be important.

    The way I read it, neocon administrations get a pat on the back for spending taxpayer dollars on their supporters and on ill-advised military adventurism instead of on services to the people whose money it is. Thus, by a rather obvious sleight of hand they let the real dummies - you, sunshine - aid and abet the theft of taxpayer dollar to be used on anything but the area it should go to - the taxpayer; the middle class who can't afford an accountant to get them out of paying their fair share.

    GOP "robbing Peter (the average shmo) to pay Paul (the rich prick with friends in high places)"

    What was that about getting smart?
