A conversation with a right winger about laziness and the OWS (I don't know if they're evil or dumb)
Advertisements [?]
I thought I’d entertain a few of you this am with the exchange between a rightwing lackey and me.


(This one started on the heels of this idiot talking as if humans were born with a LAZY GENE, and I accused him of thinking this way).


====================================================

ME: Okay, so you said this: "I do not believe that people are basically slothful.." Then why do you behave and think as if you did?

RIGHT WINGNUT: I don't.  I believe they are rational.  You feel we should guarantee a middle class income for everyone.  I don't believe people should be allowed to starve or go without shelter, but we should NOT guarantee more that the basics.

ME: I think you’re delusional. What you believe is the basics, is not even the basics. I already know this. We’ve been down this f-d up road before. I think a living wage should be guaranteed, and those who can't take care of themselves should be cared for.  I do, however, want to get to the bottom of your basis of belief of slothfulness, which you deny but I have seen clearly.  Explain this slothfulness belief further:
(1) What is slothfulness in people?
(2) What do you think causes slothfulness in people?
(3) Do you believe all people are basically slothful?
(4) Do you think the rich that inherit are not slothful?
(5) Do you think that you are slothful?  If yes, why?  If no, why not?

RIGHT WINGNUT: No.  You explain to me why the farmers in Alabama cannot find workers with the unemployment rate as high as it is there.  

ME: Because the threats of prison have caused migrant workers to go home to Mexico.

And why don't Americans take these jobs?
(1) Who has the frikkin' gas money to go miles and miles to pick?
(2) What does $2.50/hour pay for?  Rent?  Food?  Where?  When?  In the U.S. of 1910?
(3) Who stays with children if women are going to displace themselves to go 30 miles to pick at $2.50/hour?  You?  Or will you pay for their child care at 4 times that price?
You are a linear thinker, XXXX.  You don't see everything that is in the world, you don't understand that everything is complex.  You just think things are easy for everyone else except for you. 

RIGHT WINGNUT: Which means the jobs are open.  Why are they not being taken by Americans who want to work?

ME: Do you read English?  It seems you don't. You’re too busy being the happy, brain-dead lackey of the right wing wealthy. I just told you why Americans don’t take those jobs.. Return to that e-mail and read it.  If you read through e-mails as carefully as you did that one, small wonder you are clueless about what's going on around in the world, and are so utterly obsequious to those who are f-ing up your country.

====================================================

RIGHT WINGNUT: I dare you to defend this from Occupy Wall Street.  Find anything even close at a Tea Party Rally.  If you think this is in any way defensible, do not write me again!  You have gone completely nuts.

ME: An entire peaceful movement, and you manage to dig up the only example Fucks News could dig up with someone behaving extreme. You trip over yourself to run and 'forgive' every perverted, violent, and fucked up behavior in your beloved right wingnut groups, but oh boy, a death penalty is deserved for 1 lib that isn’t moderately pleasant. You'd make one fantabulously GREAT Rightwingnut Pep Club Captain, Dan.  Fucks News would give you one heck of a big medal.  You're a lackey with a BIG L. And by the way, for someone who defends the revolution against the British overlords, and taxation without representation, you sure have turned into a coward about this revolution against the overlords here, and taxation without representation. Of course I'd be glad not to write you again. Do I need an empty-brained serf flapping his jaws, repeating what he's been told to repeat, to waste my precious time on? Uh... the answer to that is a clear no.  

RIGHT WINGNUT: You are the one for taxation.  The representatives I vote to elect are those who are against it.  You are all for more taxes so long as you are taxing someone else.  Now defend that idiot calling for the burning of NY.

ME: Naturally. I am for taxation because I’m not a 2 year old, dreaming that Santa Claus will take care of everything. You, on the other hand, live in a fairy tale world in which things are run moneyless and magically.  XXXX, that's why you're a right wingnut.  Your brain is absent of any logic whatsoever, you read absolutely frikkin' NOTHING but chewed-up-1%-lackey-propaganda pablum from Fucks News, you drink right wing Kool-Aid from the GOP reps who want you to remain a serf and keep their asses living well off you, and though deep down inside you might realize it's all one huge pile of dogshit, you blind yourself to it and follow orders, because it's like a pep club of sorts. Cheering for the Wingnut Party just makes you feel sooo cozy that nothing else matters.  Granted, they might be turning your country into a 3rd world nation, and impoverishing you (as they already have), but what about that cozy feeling loving up those fuckers gives you, huh?  Can’t let that warm feeling go, can you, XXXX? Please seriously consider become a Republican politician shoe polisher. It suits you well.
