Truth



Those utter assholes, like DeSanctimonious, spent a lot of time yammering about drag queens and claiming, without any evidence, that they were grooming kids. They've been going after librarians and coffee houses that hosted drag queen events, The Proud Boys have been harassing people (most of them masked, because they're cowards).

And now, some wet-brain has acted on all of those lies and killed people.

Funny thing about all that: The churches are full of people who are grooming kids. Just about every denomination that yu can name has had a scandal about it, either large or small. But you don't hear Abbott or MTG or DeSanctimonious talking about that, do you? You don't see these armed lunatics shooting up a Roman Catholic seminary or a SBC meeting because of that, do you?

Five people are dead and more than two dozen people because some impressionable room-temperature IQ jerkoff was programmed to hate by those assholes in the party of hatred, via their version of Radio Rwanda. The proof is in this fact: Not one of those assholes uttered a single vowel of condolences after the shooting. They have not a single shred of humanity in their hell-destined souls.

This looks like the model:

Mr Netanyahu is the archetype of the modern populist-nationalist politician....

Indeed the first rule of what might be called “The Netanyahu Guidebook for Successful Populists” is that you can never have enough existential threats to your country.

The second is that any leader, even one of a small nation, should not be scared of taking on the president of the United States. America offers many avenues to influence policy while bypassing the White House; Mr Netanyahu calls this “The Theory of Public Pressure”. He glories in telling how he used every means—media appearances, lobbying Congress and currying favour with evangelical pastors—to spar with presidents, notably Bill Clinton and Barack Obama, who differed with him on both the Palestinian and Iranian issues.

The third rule is to adopt the latest political techniques for domestic campaigns. Mr Netanyahu was one of the first non-American politicians to import the methods of Republican strategists. In 1996 he employed Arthur Finkelstein, who conducted surveys and focus groups to find the subjects that most aroused voters’ fears and hatreds (he is credited with making “liberal” a dirty word in America). As a result, Mr Netanyahu appealed to voters’ Jewish identities and accused his rivals of plotting to “divide Jerusalem”.

A fourth rule is to reinvent yourself as the leader of the disenfranchised in opposition to a mythical elite. “To many in the ruling elites I had betrayed my social class. Educated and politically influential, I led the ‘plebeians’ to power,” Mr Netanyahu writes. “Worse, I led them in the wrong direction.” Mr Netanyahu, prime minister for a total of 15 years, can hardly be considered outside the ruling class.

A fifth dictum is to openly embrace power. After one bruising exchange with Mr Obama, who refused to launch a military strike on Iran, he muses that “soft power is good, but hard power is even better”. He cautions against nuance. The key thing in leadership, he insists, is to boil everything down to one uncomplicated sentence: “Say something clear or say nothing at all.”

The Rethugs start this kind of crap and then don't condemn it, but insist that the Democrats are out to kill them.
