Being Amoral has Become a Sin

Ha! Read the blog and then come back. Nothing below will make any sense if you don't.

Anyway, this fellow has a very simple way of looking at the world: everything's a lark, and everyone's fair game. Do you guess he's a libertarian? Who will keep order? Guns, that's who. Should people be allowed to use drugs whenever they want to? Sure! And give 'em some guns, too! What about God? Well, He probably approves of all this because...because...well because I say so! No further thought required!

And by the way, if you want to argue against a fucking nutball notion like the idea that women DON'T control their own bodies, you have to go find a completely rational and intelligent person who believes that and debate him. In other words, you have to do your best to find someone who will defeat you in the argument, then it'll be fair! If, of course, there are no rational nutballs to be found (have YOU ever met an opponent of abortion who could keep his--and it's almost always a "him"--lid on for more than a few seconds??), then get one of the crazy ones and just don't argue with anything he says, no matter how crazy! That's called the "CNN Tactic"!

Now back to our cheerfully amoral blogger. The problem with these fucking assholes, if I may be serious for one moment, is that they seem to conceive of the world as being static and ironic. Nothing is ever going to change for real, they suggest, and so we can just enjoy the ride, victimizing others as we go--hey, they can always victimize us right back! Apparently, enjoying the ride entails going on one goof after another, forever, and never moving beyond the adolescent stage of development. Hitting people with rolled-up newspapers and videotaping it? Hilarious! Pulling out a gun and shooting the kids with the newspapers? Equally hilarious! Being tried for murder? Hilar--hey wait a minute! That would never happen! This is my bizarro fantasy and I get to make the rules! And then, see, you have to indulge me and pretend that I'm real funny and witty and all. It works out great! For me!

Being amoral is not funny. In fact, it's a crime. And, in these times, it's harmful to the rest of us. Look, dipshit: most of us are smart enough to realize when we're being fucked with. Most of us know that what are fuzzy concepts to dumbasses like you, like "politics" and "power" and "life" and "death," are actually VERY important ideas to wrap your head around. Thus, we are political. We take a side and fight for our self-preservation. Morons like you sit around and watch "Jackass" and "Crank Yankers" and live in a fantasy land. What's worse, you apparently are incapable of overcoming your self-made handicap (that is, you have turned off your brain). I am unsure whether you qualify, then, as a liabilty or merely as ballast. I suggest that you go ahead and get that gun, take a long suck on the barrel, and pull the trigger.

How do your Cheerios taste now, shithead?
