I am so angry!
It may seem like normally I don’t care but, it's just I don’t argue with idiots. Now, however, I’ve been pushed over the edge.
If it didn’t
effect anyone I would leave things be. Live and let live. Like I do with flat
earthers who are currently harmless. Anti vaxers have kindergarten police to
deal with ( only so long as they don’t open their own anti vaxer day care. It would
be expensive though. Wheelchair ramps are not cheap).
BUT this is
different.
I shake my head and try and empathise. I can't. It goes against science,
logic, Occam’s Razor and even to some degree religion. I say even religion because,
let’s be honest, you can make up whatever you want.
What
happened over the weekend in Charlottesville is unfathomable as it is
unacceptable. The hate that the white supremacy groups harbor towards anyone
not white (everyone they believe is not white enough or whatever...the mind
boggles) does not make sense. Well it doesn’t make sense to any rational, logical,
human focused person.
I mean there is so much shit going on in the world, there
always has been, and I dare say there probably always will be.
I often
joke to myself, those currently who affiliate with white supremacy look so dim
they would probably be murdered by the Nazi’s in WW2. Anyway this
is not about judging a book by its cover. It’s more about how to change these attitudes
OR what can be done to shake this shit out of white supremacists.
In the movie American
History X, Ed Norton’s character plays a neo Nazi who goes to prison for
murdering a black man. Whilst in prison he is shown compassion and kindness by
a black prisoner and eventually Ed sees the error of his ways. The Faustian twist at the end
aside, kindness wins the day. This is inappropriate and unworkable for today
though. For one, prison as an institution of education would seem too good an
idea to actually work. And why not have them, now referred to as AltRightists,
educated and shown the error of their ways before they commit a crime and
perpetuate the hate?
How do we
do this?
For those starting school there needs to be a common thread of
humanity being taught. But it’s hard enough to get a good education in many
places, let alone one that expounds that ‘all people are created equal’.
So for
those older than school age AltRightists the answer is tough love.
Sounds
great Adam! How does it work?
In order to
change the mind of an AltRightist, from ‘eveything about me is fundamentally
better than all nonwhites and everything about nonwhites is a detriment to my physical
person and the world at large' to ‘fuck I was wrong, what have I been going with
my life? ’ you need a big shock. Not ECT, although I hear it’s making a
positive come back, but still in the realm of medicine. Blood.
The idea of
pure blood is a thing, more so with the breeding of animals for food and sport
and leisure (complains go on the other page) but also with these AltRightist,
white supremacy, Neo Nazi hate groups. I imagine that an AltRightist will use hand sanitizer
after shaking hands with a nonwhite. (Btw if you don’t you’re a shit AltRightist).
If they don’t the nonwhite germs would get into their body, move into their
brains and affect them in adverse ways. Such that they may, lie, cheat, steal,
have non marital sex, extra marital sex, murder etc. Because normally AltRightists
don’t do any of these.
I see the AltRightist
relationship to a nonwhite as being the relationship between a Vampire and holy
water. It burns.
So to my point
of tough love, blood, education, shock and the question, ‘how to you shake the
shit out of an AltRightist?’ You transfuse them with something that they believe
would have an adverse nay lethal effect on them. The blood of a nonwhite!
What needs
to happen is when an AltRightist needs a blood transfusion they are given the
blood of a nonwhite. Same blood type, a 100% match but from a nonwhite. They
are told it is the blood of a nonwhite, they have no choice in the matter. I’m
seeing them writhing in anticipated, existential pain and speaking in tongues
like Regan MacNeil being compelled by the power of Christ.
After which,
in their minds, I imagine, they cry for loss of purity, start acting neurotic
and laugh annoyingly while asking for Mr Sheffield. Then lie, cheat, steal,
have non marital sex, extra marital sex, murder etc…and blame it on the blood.
In my mind
the stupidity of people can be curtailed one way or another. In reality all
things, regardless of how evil they are, can be justified.
How resourceful are
humans!
So my ‘AltRightist
blood transfusion with nonwhite blood’ method of dehating an AltRightist is a
failure. Maybe there is no cure for hate and this goes on forever. If this is
the case, and let’s assume it is, these AltRightist people and groups must not
be tolerated, must always be shunned, must be pointed out for what they are, a regression
in development of the human species, and a waste of time for everyone. I’m
not saying it’s a waste to put an end to AltRightists stupidity but there could
be time much better spent if there were no AltRightists.
End note. I
was laughing to myself while walking home. Thinking of the extremist of extreme
Neo Nazi being told they are now receiving my A+ Jewish blood. Looking at the horror
their eyes. Their screams of ‘No! NO!’ (I’d imaging if you’re that horrified
you’d either say that or nothing at all). Writhing in (imagined) pain as the
blood was transfused. And once completed and the needle was removed, the first
thing to come out of their mouth is a laugh form The Nanny (Fran Drescher).
