    Let’s be real, there’s only so much of any Cluster B most people can take before trying to escape by any means available. Usually fleeing in the opposite direction with a complete address and phone number change. Trump is the most life force sucking of the 4 types.

    This guy must be fried. It’s his own fault, truly, but even talking about retiring to Louisiana sounds a little too spot on.

    At this point, I’m not surprised he’s talking back. There’s probably a swath of these guys looking forward to midterms as a potential escape that’s someone else’s fault because they have no balls to quit on their own.

      I agree with everything you wrote but the last sentence.

      The swath of chuds looking for an ego saving out are a bigger problem to decency than a mere lack of sufficiently robust cojones.

      A mere coward can find a backbone.

      These chuds have whored themselves soul to asshole with a clearer view of the evil which would be empowered by their short-sightedness than you or I know, as we can mostly infer.

      All for the merest piece of power in an even more twisted hierarchy that they are to help usher in, and it is only the possibility of failure and losing the promised in-group protection that gives them their instinct to activate the duplicity subroutines within the speech centers of their rectum.

      In many ways, they’re worse than the actual “masterminds” behind this wave of scum, and I’d see them all scourged out of existence, first, if it were possible.

      These cowards make me more ashamed of sharing a taxonomy with them than the actual fuckers who would see me dead of out actual twisted conviction.

        Of course. Nazis could not have done what they had done without ready enlistees in the army and regular citizens being narcs.

        There are always bullies. SS and Trumps new ICE types. But how far could they get without all the rest backing them up, through inaction or otherwise?

        Though the roll over and play dead with inaction crowd is always an active majority. Right now as well. In part, it’s that human element Palanuik references in Fight Club, the start a fight with someone assignment. The other part is, middle of the bell curve, not leadership material, but people who wait for a leader to follow.

        Meanwhile, the constitution burns.

        Is it wrong to wish for a little eugenics to rid our species of selfish, spineless morally vacuous trash? I mean it probably wouldn’t work 100% if we just killed them all in one go. There would be more. But it would surely help prevent at least a few of their bastard children from being raised to be carbon copies of their shithead fathers.

          I see you comrade.

          It is not wrong, but ill advised to entertain such thoughts too much when outside of the flame of righteous emotion.

          No, not the part where the loathsome scum who would self-deny their own humanity in exchange for a penny and that the boot grinds their neighbors first get their just desserts. I encourage going nuts there. Really freely exercise those thought muscles and instrospect your way towards charting the limits of your resolve, no maximum dosage. Treat as water; drink when thirsty, careful not to drown when swimming in it, etc.

          I say that coming from a place of sibling hood; I am a Sci-fi writer and boy howdy do I let myself go cathartic with both the real outlining and the daydream fantasies.

          But as I sit here now in the gathering quiet before the next storm, the time of theory and prep before praxis, I recognize and affirm to myself: No Gods, no masters.

          The only verboten mechanism is control. The fantasies wherein I somehow personally have attained ultimate power via some contrived means, should always end with me receiving my just desserts.

          We can teach 'em, we can attempt reason with 'em, we can kill 'em should it come to that even. But we can’t allow their corruption to live on through us. The abyss can’t be allowed to stare back.
