You Might Be a Fascist If…

I'd like to say that violent protests and hyperbolic political discourse in the streets throughout our country was a new phenomenon; that our "Cheeto Dictator" President--or whatever--has inspired some insane reactionary hate movement. Fortunately, despite what your illiterate Facebook friends may think, that's not the case. But unfortunately, this kind of assault on western values, common…

The chronicles of our trip to Enid, OK / Fly Film Festival, Auto Shop and lap Alfredo / A Song of Fire and Fire with Game of Thrones / American Airlines finally gets us home / Roxborough Night Market / A Festival of Alt-Lights / We are men, not Nazis / Tragedy in Charlottesville /…

When the Frog Went to War

Last night, Americans were unnerved by the breaking news that Trump had ordered an artillery strike on the Syrian Air Force base from which planes carrying "Chemical Weapons" had supposedly launched an attack on the rebel-controlled town of Khan Sheikhoun. As I argued in a previous article, this "Chemical Attack" likely never occurred at all. But,…

Grace, Chewbacca & The Deplorables: 2016 Year in Review

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KIViy7L_lo8 At the end of each year, it's customary to reflect backward instead of looking forward. Pretty much the only forward-thinking we ever do is related to some doomed-to-fail resolution that we wind up breaking within the first month of the new year when the first celebrity we kind of liked dies. Pass the cigarettes,…

The Centipede’s Dilemma

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MKH6PAoUuD0 There's something happening; and it goes far beyond a year-long meme war (never forget). A new language has been created, new heroes have emerged, a complete mainstream media world-view has been uncovered and challenged at every turn, and the infighting among new cliques like the Alt-Right and Proud Boys has already begun. Thus begins the "Centipede's…

Yuri Bezmenov and the Forgotten 1984

It was in February of 1970, a presumably cold and grey day in the former Soviet Union, that Yuri disguised himself as a cartoon hippie, complete with fake beard and shaggy hair, and joined a pro-commie tour group that allowed him to flee his homeland to Athens, Greece. After lengthy security checks by United States…

We Need to Talk About Tomi Lahren on The Daily Show

For those of you who don't know who Tomi Lahren is, she is a young conservative pundit with her own show, Tomi, on TheBlaze. TheBlaze is a multimedia network owned by universally recognized crazy person, Glenn Beck; but don't let that distract you from Tomi. While it's true that networks tend to drift towards a political spectrum (in…

I Did Nazi That One Coming!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1o6-bi3jlxk We are in full meltdown mode, ladies and gentlemen. It's as if you're all going through the five stages of grief in a manic and unprecedented dynamic. Aside from the occasional anxiety attack, I've been having the time of my life watching all of this unfold. And I have some big-boy rational explanations for…

Twitter Censorship and the World of Tomorrow

Twitter was created a decade ago, but didn't truly see the height of its rampant popularity until 2012. I know--not too long ago at all. It played a huge impact in Middle Eastern revolutions, and David Cameron threatened to ban it during the London Riots of 2011. So...understandably, there are a lot of little, let's…

Vote for Yourselves (For All I Care)

First thing's fucking first, I get it--this election has been pretty nuts. Not unpredictably nuts, but a level of bizarre we can all deal with, should we be mentally stable individuals. Most of us aren't. And it seems that you guys--gentle readers--are almost certainly more out-of-touch than any of the current candidates are. But, having said…

Pepe the Frog VS Harambe

Hello, Children of the Internets...Father Time, here. You may not believe this--shit, I can scarcely believe it myself--but there once was a time when memes were developed, ran their course, and eventually died. Occasionally, the meme would see a resurgence, riding on the white horse of creativity. Using wit, or simple nostalgia, a meme would…
