Dunning-Kruger Nerds
Thanks to the Southern and Molyneux Go Full Racist tour and our attempts to derail it, we've been doing a big old interact with a lot of Dunning-Kruger Nerds. These are people who have half-learned the not-basics of reason and debate and use this garbage knowledge like a flying shield of shit. I'd call them the dumbest motherfuckers alive, but this life of fuck guarantees you'll meet that fucking guy tomorrow and a bit later he'll be eclipsed by some other giant turnip and on and on.
For nearly twenty years I've been smashing my face into the keyboard as the nerds who infest every corner of the internerd put their pallid, moist efforts into arguing that no one who acts like a nazi is actually a Nazi. A few years into this putrid journey Godwin's Law was wheeled in to do the heavy lifting and major fuckwitted human cakes like Stephen Fry nodded along like Monks of the Order of the Swivel Chair to the fucking tune of Be Reasonable Everybody. And that whole time the nazi situation got more and more out of control. Now you can watch a knitting how-to video and Youtube assumes you want to be introduced to fascism and suggests videos accordingly.
The thing is, the difference between a regular person and a Nazi is what? If you're just a little bit of a nazi are you still a regular shithead? I would argue that you never ever have to arrive at the point of being considered a full Nazi by experts. Why go all the way there when you can playfully toy with horrific concepts like it's just a funny hobby?
They're fucking everywhere, these almost nazis, nearly nazis, not actually a nazi and who me I'm just playing nazis and they need to be flushed out into the light and deprogrammed, every last one of them. I despair though, because climate change has shown us the nightmare of worldwide denial. If we deal with nazis the way we deal with climate change we can look forward to concentration camps that are both on fire and underwater.
Extreme racists have just toured Australia, got loads of media, met very little opposition and only now after they have left are some people asking questions. "Was that hate speech? Definitely. Well, gee, what do we do about that? I don't know, because we only have the entirety of human existence to refer to." Normal people love to pretend bad situations are a surprise, it's how they get around the knowledge that it's their fault.
I've run out of time. I have to go to the gym to strengthen my yelling apparatus for Yelling At Racist Dogs, people who often pretend to be stupid or are stupid and can't be debated with and must be yelled at.
