What's this? Libertarian Nazis? Fail!


When I first caught wind of this political ideology I thought it nothing more than a foggy-headed philosophy, dreamed up by some fuckbag at some university thinking him/ herself as being a progressive individual, but sure enough it's an actual political movement, maybe. Here's what Politcs1 has to say about these cocksleeves:

"Politically correct Nazis? These Libertarian Green Nazis are either the strangest conglomeration of diametrically opposed political ideologies of a political party I have ever seen -- or one of the most wry political practical jokes found anywhere on the net (I'm not certain which conclusion is correct, but I strongly suspect the latter). This party purports to be comprised of atheist, peaceful, pro-gay, pro-drug legalization, anti-racist, environmentalist Nazis who acknowledge the Holocaust likely occurred (but are neutral as to its justification) and oppose the government sponsored killing of Jews, Christians & gays and the disabled. The LNSGP "rejects Judeo-Christian moral standards, victim mentality political behavior, capital-centric value systems, and authority." While membership is open to anyone regardless of their race or sexual orientation, individuals who openly profess a belief in either Judaism or Christianity are denied party membership. Articles, platform, FAQ and graphics. Worth a visit -- even if only to decide for yourself if this is a joke or if it is serious. In the past -- and as an indicator that the LNSGP is probably a practical joke -- the LNSGP's site had sections dedeicated to claims of participation in a public service project named the "Jewish Community Brothership" (to "Communicate the modern interpretations of Nazism and its implications for Jews in today's multicultural Reich") and some links to very bizarre "news" articles (example: "Nazi Moon Bases Established in 1942")."

What's next? The Pansexual Peace Party? Too late.

These People Shouldn't be Voting Part III

More racist sciolism from the McCain- Palin cohort.

Tainted Lunch Meat : I love the money fires

Everyone here thought the Onion video about the National Money Hole was hilarious. I think. Anyway, apparently other more serious people are coming around to the conclusion that setting the bail-out money on fire, in a hole or not, is a more sensible idea than using it to invest in continually falling bank stocks. No longer questioning the wisdom of bail-outs, they seem to benefit the people they were intended to benefit. Not me. Still wondering why we get suckered into going along with bail-outs. Capitalism at it's finest, unless the ruling class is in some way inconvenienced, then socialism for them, jack for everyone else. Fucking bizarre that we can't see how badly we're being fleeced.

Tainted Lunch Meat : Big 3 just won't die

Black Friday is over, money was spent, people died and the economy still sucks, or so I'm told. Gas is cheap though, so that's a plus. Ford, Chevy and Chrysler are all still on the verge of extinction apparently. The AP has a news item about why the proposed bailout may not even save them. There's a lot of talk about 'reorganization' and union hurdles, which sounds to me like they're trying to find a way to get out of their pension obligations and not pay their employees as much. I'm generally not in favor of bailouts, especially as I see them as a form of corporate socialism where profits are privatised and risk is spread around, but I think anything that can keep the Big 3 out of bankruptcy is critical, just so they can't bilk all the people who worked their entire lives for those companies. Maybe they should just take the bailout money and pay the retirees until the fund runs out. The Big 3 automakers aren't likely to all survive, maybe 1 of the 3 could make it, but if the focus is on selling Hummers and not a more sane model, then maybe all 3 disappear. Maybe it's time for a Big 2, Toyota and Honda seem to be doing marginally better.

Tainted Lumch Meat : black friday

It seems every year some one gets trampled, stampeded or otherwise injured on the day after Thanksgiving at a mall or Walmart. What happened this year to the victim in New York is tragic, but not surprising. What is surprising is that more people aren't seriously injured during these shopping events. I was hoping to see Black Friday be just another Friday this year. With the economy in the shitter and people losing jobs and homes and cars and credit lines, I wasn't expecting to hear stories about 2,000 people being lined up in front of a Walmart to buy crap. I feel like those people are like the zombies in Dawn of the Dead, they don't know why they are there, they just know they should be there, there's no other place to be on that day. It's sad. Certainly there were better things to be doing at 5am, like sleeping, not being complicit in the death of another person, etc. I bought cigarettes and a soda on Black Friday, two things that may lead to an early death, two things that didn't significantly impact retail numbers for any major chain store, glad to be doing my part to not help our consumer economy. If shoppers still show up for nonsense like Black Friday deals in the midst of one of our biggest clusterfuck economic downturns, I can't wait to see what happens during a good economy, maybe we'll see a Blood Red Friday as the zombie shoppers battle for deals designed to separate them from their savings.

Tainted Lunch Meat : Obama probably not the Antichrist

Newsweek has an article discussing the possibility or not that Barack Obama is the Antichrist. I for one hope that he is. Please shatter my atheistic delusions, please. Absurd. Unfortunately, at least one 'expert' in the article seems to think that Obama probably isn't the Antichrist. Probably not. Really. I'm disappointed that it took an expert to come to that conclusion. Maybe we'll get the Antichrist elected next time. Jesus fucking christ.
