I'm trying something new today. This is what I'm calling an AudioRant. Instead of just writing my latest rant, I recorded it, and I'm going to post it here. It's divided into 4 parts, each about 2 minutes long. Here they are (these are mp3 files, and will open in a new window when you click them):
Now, I realize that not everyone has the time or the desire to listen to me rant for 8 minutes, so I've also put a transcript in the extended entry. It's not the exact same thing as the audio, but I did use it as kind of a "script," so it's pretty close.
Man, this took way too much work. I don't think I'll be doing it again.
All right, I have to rant. A lot of the stuff I'm going to say has probably been said already, but it hasn't been said by me, and that's all I really care about right now.
Over the last couple days, I've been checking out some videos and things from ProtestWarrior.com. These are the guys who infiltrate A.N.S.W.E.R. rallies with satirical signs and try to engage the participants in battles of logic. After watching these videos, I have to say...
Holy crap. I mean...Holy. Crap. Anti-war protesters have got to be some of the dumbest people on the face of the earth. Seriously. These friggin' people are so dumb, I don't know how they actually find their way out the door in order to go to a protest. They are so astronomically stupid, and it's unbelievable that they can even exist. I'd like to address them directly while I explain why.
Okay, protesters, are you listening? Good. Now...
HOLY CRAP! WHY ARE YOU SO FREAKING STUPID? ARE YOU EVEN AWARE OF WHAT YOU'RE DOING?
What is wrong with you people? Do you honestly think that by carrying a sign and marching down the street, you're going to bring about world peace? That is what you want, right? "Act Now to Stop War and End Racism." So you want to stop all wars, right? You friggin' idiotarian wastes of space.
If war itself hasn't stopped war, how can you possibly believe that marching down the street chanting your little slogans is going to accomplish anything? Are you just a bunch of neo-hippies trying to relive the protests against Vietnam? Because you seem to forget that those protests were against a SPECIFIC WAR! You people have so many causes, it's amazing you're able to organize. You'd think there would eventually be a disagreement between a couple of you. But that's how brainwashing works, isn't it? You all believe the same thing as your friends because it "feels" right.
Again, how can you possibly think that your moonbat play-dates are going to put an end to all wars? Do you think people will see you and just go, "Oh, man, why didn't I think of this before? We'll just stop fighting, and then everything will be okay!" Keep those marshmallows in the bag, because nobody's singing songs around the campfire of world peace anytime soon.
Oh, sure, if you try really hard, you may destroy morale enough that American wars stop, but do you think you can stop ALL wars? You can't possibly think that. Do you know why we're not the most popular country in the world? It's because we're willing to fight for our freedom! A lot of people hate us because we're so hard to kill! They don't want to be our friends; They want us dead! Can you not see that?
Some would call you traitors. I'm not going to do that, because to be a traitor, you have to be aware that you're giving aid and comfort to the enemy. You people don't even realize what you're doing. There's a term for you: Useful idiots. You morons are so self-centered, self-righteous, and fanatical that you can't even comprehend the idea that your actions may have negative effects on this country.
There's plenty of proof of this, too. When the ProtestWarrior people ask you why you're against the war, you spout your usual nonsense about oil, racism, imperialism, and the like. You usually don't get any deeper than a couple quotes from Chomsky or the Communist Manifesto.
Of course, you usually resort to the old standard of calling anyone who disagrees with you a Nazi. I can't get over the hilarity of people like you using that as an insult. Think about it. What does Nazi mean? It means "National Socialist." What else do Nazis stand for? Well, for one thing, they wanted to exterminate the Jews. So, in a very loose sense, a Nazi is a socialist who wants to kill Jews.
Interesting. You seem to have a disproportionate number of socialists within your own ranks, and most of you support the Palestinians, a fair number of whom want to kill all the Jews. Hey, sounds familiar, doesn't it? You should take Nazi as a compliment, since you seem to share the same ideals!
But I'm not calling you Nazis. I'm calling you ignorant. You're ignorant of history, which is why you think that "Nazi" is just a synonym for "evil."
There's another thing that bothers me. You people seem to be totally clueless as to what real evil is. You think capitalism is evil, Bush is evil, conservatives are evil, America is evil, everything you don't like is evil. That's why you call everyone a Nazi, because to you, it's the same thing as calling them evil. But you really don't understand true evil if that's what you believe.
Evil is decapitating a living human being while screaming "God is great." Evil is using chemical weapons on your own people. Evil is shoving people feet-first through plastic shredders. Evil is stoning women to death because they were raped. Evil is hijacking an airliner and flying it into a building full of innocent people. Evil is blowing up a bus because the passengers don't believe in Allah. Get it through your incredibly dense heads. Evil is what we're fighting, not what we are.
And the whole time, while you're marching and carrying your signs with caricatures of Bush as Hitler, or blood-stained Israeli flags, you say that you're doing it for peace. WHAT? You believe that we're more evil than totalitarian dictators, and you want to bring Communism and socialism to America, and you think that will result in PEACE?
Well, maybe you're right. After all, the protesters in Communist countries are some of the most peaceful people in the world. There's only one problem: THEY'RE PEACEFUL BECAUSE THEY'RE DEAD! It's hard not to be peaceful when you're not even breathing, isn't it? That's what happens in the countries you support. If you go against the government, you're rounded up in the middle of the night and shot. That's what it means to crush dissent.
Think about that. America is one of the only countries in the history of civilization that gives its citizens the unalienable right to destroy it from the inside if they so desire. And you're protesting against that? You're using your freedom of speech to claim that you want to live in a country without freedom of speech.
But again, you don't realize that. You think socialism is just great, but people haven't done it right in the past. I pity you. I really do. But I will still support your right to say these idiotic things, because we're all Americans, and we have the right to argue.
That doesn't stop me from calling you idiots though. Because you are undoubtedly the dumbest people I have ever seen in my life.
This rant is over. Frickin' idiotarians.
