Must be Right-wing redneck bigots
January 8th, 2010Have you ever heard of this guy Dalai Lama? I just read a quote of his and I’m thinking he’s got to be one of those crazy Right-wing whack job redneck sister screwing racist homophobic sheep fucking lazy ass racist conspiracy tinfoil hat wearing inbred hillbillies.
You know what he said? He said “If someone has a gun and is trying to kill you, it would be reasonable to shoot back with your own gun.” (Seattle Times, May 15, 2001). Well, we all know only Right-wing bigots like guns. So screw this Lama guy. What a weird name anyways.
Then there’s this Mahatma Gandhi guy. ‘‘Among the many misdeeds of the British rule in India, history will look upon the act of depriving a whole nation of arms, as the blackest.’’
Huh? He’s for Indians owning guns? Probably so they could shoot each other. Probably some racist bigot who thinks women should be barefoot and pregnant and chained up to the stove so they can cook him a meal when he gets home from work.
The only guy who really makes sense is this Heinrich Himmler guy. He says that “ordinary citizens don’t need guns, as their having guns doesn’t serve the state.” Well, I couldn’t agree with this guy more. Himmler gets it. Only the state should be trusted with guns. Maybe I should have voted for him for President. He’d make a good leader.
Sarcasm duly noted - very effective.
I think it’s only fair to point out that Gandhi actually WAS quite the racist, if only to make the do-gooders to whom he is such an icon twitch even HARDER.
And funny how these selfsame do-gooders only seem to have a problem embracing Himmler’s thoughts on EUGENICS, based in SCIENCE, and yet NO such difficulty embracing elements of his SOCIAL agenda, based in RHETORIC and aimed at CONTROLLING BEHAVIOR.
On the whole, I think their inconsistencies are very telling in and of themselves, wouldn’t you agree?
Mike - Thanks.
Bart - Gandhi if I remember correctly also loved underaged girls.
As for eugenics, it’s the ultimate of non-political correctness. Races have their advantages and disadvantages just like any other animal. White skin, especially light blonde and red haired folk, can absorb enough Vitamin D with weak sunlight whereas they’d die of skin cancer near the Equator. Black skin has its advantages near the Equator but will have Vitamin D problems near the Poles.
Fat folk do great in cold weather. Short people have advantages in jungles. Tall skinny people in savannas. Racist? No, fact.
Now the problem I have with eugenics is when some folks think it trumps free will. NOTHING trumps free will. That has always been central in my belief. I’ve always believed in free will and self-actualization and think ANYONE can achieve it if they’re willing to do the work.
As for Himmler, despite my degree in History, I studied him very little. The only thing I know of him was from my Jewish film teacher who made us watch Triumph of the Will, not because she was self-loathing, but because she understood what a good movie was. It was a good movie.
She was my favorite kind of Professor, the one who can see through political correctness and actually study truth. The movie itself was propaganda crap, but we studied it because that’s how you make a documentary. Even George Lucas understood this. Take Star Wars and line it up with Triumph of the Will and you can almost say the word “plagiarism.”
As for their inconsistencies, yes, that’s what I’m making fun of. Like I love how they hate poor white people, as if they’re better than poor white people. As you know, I grew up among poor white people and they were always nice to me. I’ve encountered a lot more racism with the white politically correct upper middle class and police than I ever have encountered with poor white people.
