The Humiliation Continues

To keep up with my documentation of the fact that the hard right in this country is essentially a fiction, here is a photo, from Right Wing Watch, of this year's march on Washington by the National Organization for Marriage:

The  person who posted this said they counted 48 attendees, including a number of small children.

Again, I want to point out how many people on our side of things are still like children afraid of monsters under their beds, cowering in the face of a mirage.  Other than vast amounts of money from rich psychopaths which allow them to spread their lies, the right wingers have just about nothing.  There is really no huge "silent majority" behind them.  God knows, nothing can keep them silent for a minute; if they are silent it's because basically they don't exist.  It's long past time for every one of us to stand up for truth and decency, and not worry about being shouted down by a member of this loathsome, and minuscule pack of sorry excuses for human beings.

And More Humiliation:

Here's a rally called by neo-Nazi leader Richard Spencer yesterday in Washington.  Despite being one of the most high profile far right leaders in the country, he drew less than 100 people.

I won't repeat the conclusions I drew above.

Probkem is that the entire Republican party is willing to pander to this tiny demographic. As long as they can cut taxes and roll back women's rights, they're willing to get along with neo Nazis.

And yet they seem numerous on the internet which proxies as reality for a lot of people. I can go to some YouTube pundit who will rip the far Right to pieces in one video and that video will have (looking at an example...) 79K views, nearly 5K likes, 751 dislikes, 2K comments many of which are apparently dribbling Right wing imbeciles. The qualification of course is that a lot of these 751 dislikes, representing dickheads who have never achieved anything and so cling to ancestry as their proof of personal glory, are not in America. 20 of those dickheads will be Odin-worshipping morons in Norway or somewhere, and when they are not disliking videos they are arguing with each other whether Christianity is bad for the master race. Nothing much unifies the far Right except race. All the other issues are cover for saying what they want is White men in charge and everyone else paid in bananas to mow their lawns. That's it. Apart from also wanting women to be less pushy so they don't feel their manhood threatened by a walking womb. Even anti-same-sex marriage arguments are partly rooted in a panic that White people will somehow all stop having kids and therefore die out. Imagine what it must be like to live your life inhabiting a mind like that.

It's Okay, Never Mind

The woman in this picture, equipped with the weapons and ammunition shown, was found outside a National guard base. She is apparently a big Glenn Beck fan, and believed that the base was a FEMA concentration camp. Think she's the only one out there? You just know this sort of thing is not going to end well.

Wingnuts Slightly Annoyed about that $83 Million

Image
How can you look like a decrepit old geezer and an out of control two year old at the same time? I thought it might be nice to look in on wingnut world to see how they are taking yesterday's $83 million dollar Trump legal loss.  You kind of know that they will decide it shouldn't affect their opinion of him in any way, but it might be helpful to see just how the Republican party has trained them to reject any fact they don't like.  Not that surprisingly, a lot of the usual wingnut suspects didn't touch this loss at all, preferring to just ignore anything that interferes with their hateful daydreams, but here are a few excerpts from an article at Gateway Pundit, along with a sample of the hundreds of comments it received.  Enjoy.  Or not. "Trump attorney Alina Habba WENT OFF after the crooked New York City court slapped President Trump with an $83 million judgment for speaking out against the disgusting lies of a crazed woman who said he lured her into a Bergdorf Go

If a Tree Falls In the Woods

 And nobody hears it, is it really running for President at all? First of all, a note about my absence lately:  My wife got me to sign up for an account at Threads, which is sort of like X without the assholes.  I've spent a little time establishing myself there, and I have to say, I do like the relatively immediate exchange of views, but I don't mean to give up my blog- there are still so many things that can't be dealt with in a couple hundred words, so, perhaps to your dismay, I am back. So, what motivated the above question is the fact that the Sunday New York Times today had seven articles about Trump, and absolutely zero about Kamala Harris.   The Republicans have a problem with Harris, in that virtually everyone who sees her likes her and immediately understands how qualified she is to be President.  They have tried mightily the last month to find some way to smear her, but have been spectacularly unsuccessful- the tactics of character assassination that worked so we
