Sunday Facepalm.

Wayne Allyn Root is at it again, metaphorical saliva foaming over. Oh, those awful fellow conservatives, they are lazy, cheap, wussie country clubbers! They aren’t properly motivated programmed, so it’s time to call in the pros, those who will attack , and have experience in killing people. That will fix everything right up, because otherwise, he seems to think his life, and that of other batshit conservative christians, will be erased. I think Mr. Root has been watching bad movies.

Outraged that WorldNetDaily had its Twitter account temporarily suspended for its incessant promotion of the debunked Seth Rich conspiracy theory, Root fumed that conservatives “are all wussies and they don’t understand that we have to fight back so viciously and we have to boycott every liberal company in this country.”

Any company that advertises on MSNBC or CNN or in the New York Times, Washington Post or on any liberal website must be universally boycotted by every Trump voter in America, Root said, “before we are taken off the airwaves and our lives are erased.”

I can’t imagine anyone having the time, resources, and energy to “erase” lives such as yours, Mr. Root. Reality is not a bad movie. As for the rest of your plan, while there are too many Trumpholes, as in one is too many, they are actually a very small percentage of the population, and don’t have the power to make a boycott effective.

Reading from a letter he received from a friend, Root claimed that progressive organizations like Right Wing Watch, Media Matters, and the Center for American Progress have massive offices all over the country filled with staff who do nothing but send emails, letters and make phone calls “to sponsors and newspapers and cable and TV networks all over this country and all over this world to try to destroy the right.” Conservatives don’t have a similar operation, Root fumed, because they are “lazy, cheap, wussy, country club, RINO a-holes.”

Oooh, a letter from a friend. What an authoritative source. Nothing like advertising your gullibility. I imagine if these massive offices existed, there would be quite the buzz, because jobs. It’s true that lefties tend to pay attention, and get involved in a lot of grassroots action, sign petitions and all that, but that’s a far cry from this odd conspiracy you have cooked up. Most of us have to get on with the daily business of living, working every day, taking care of families, all that. Not much time leftover to be a paper assassin.

“We need to hire an attack dog,” Root declared. “We need to hire former CIA or NSA or FBI or Navy Seals that have been involved in counter-insurgency operations all over the world, that have killed people, that understand how to fight; that don’t bring a knife to a gunfight, that bring a gun to a gunfight, preferably a shoulder-fired missile to a gunfight, preferably a nuclear weapon to a gunfight!”

We? Who the hell is We? A slight hint here, Mr. Root – people such as you’re describing might not appreciate being called an attack dog. A nuclear weapon to a gunfight. Yeah, there’s that good ol’ christian conservative spirit: obliterate the fuckers, all of them! I can’t say I’d mind if you dropped dead, Mr. Root, because you’re a dangerous zealot, who thinks unleashing nuclear weapons would be a good idea. It would probably be a good thing if you figured out that if nukes fly, you’re dead, too. Jesus Fuck, what is wrong with you people?

“It is time to go after the left as viciously as they go after us,” Root proclaimed. “These people are mentally insane … and I will tell you right now, they would burn books if they could.”

“They would love to burn the Bible, because we all know they hate God,” he added. “And you know they hate the country.”

Let’s take a look. According to you, the left are viciously engaged in letter writing and phone calling. So, you think killers, guns, and nuclear weapons are an appropriate response. And that’s supposed to be mentally sane? Now, as for this: “they would burn books if they could”, um, what is it that you think is preventing people from burning books, if that’s what they want to do? I haven’t burned a bible, but I’ve shredded a couple. *shrug* Nothing happened, no one cares.

I don’t hate “god” because gods don’t exist. I don’t hate the country, either, but I certainly don’t like many of its inhabitants.

    Quote: ” “It is time to go after the left as viciously as they go after us,” Root proclaimed.” Oh, absolutely. Go after me as “viciously” as I am going after you. (Hint: I’m not going after you. Neither is anybody else. You are not that fucking important that the whole rest of the world is out to destroy you. The rest of the world does not give a shit about you, sorry.)

    What happened to the whole “God is love” thing? Are the Christians now admitting that was all eyewash all along?

    I think where the Religious Reich is concerned, there is no “God is love” thing. Their “god” is the OT psychopath.

    Also, y’know, I expect Root would be devastated to find out just how many Americans don’t have the slightest idea of who he is. Hell, I didn’t know until I started Affinity, and he popped up on Right Wing Watch.

    . . . we have to boycott every liberal company in this country.

    Please, PLEASE boycott Microsoft, Apple, Cisco, etc. Stop using computers and the internet. Nothing would please me (and most of the rest of the country) more than you boycotting tech companies which mostly adhere to what you would consider “liberal” policies.

    Just the right people for the job then. I see your letter-writing campaign and raise you by a squad of retired assassins and torturers. I don’t see what could possibly go wrong either, given the USA’s phenomenal record in dealing with insurgencies.

    ”We need to hire an attack dog,” Root declared. “We need to hire former CIA or NSA or FBI or Navy Seals that have been involved in counter-insurgency operations all over the world, that have killed people…”

    Corporations do hire such people to use counter-insurgency tactics against peaceful protestors, environmentalists, and anyone else who gets in their way. This is SOP, inside the United States and out. They go after the left. They use agents provocateurs to justify their crimes, they disappear people, they use torture and murder to further the goals of their paymasters.

    So I guess Root wants… what? More of this? His own personal hit squad?

    Also, he’s not entirely wrong: I, personally, hate his God. Whether he exists or not, I hate him. I hate him, and I hate all the people who demand we grovel before him. Been there, done that, won’t be going back. I have no interest in persecuting the Tyrant Lord’s followers, burning Bibles/churches, or fighting a holy war. But I do hate him, thanks in no small part to people like Wayne Allen Root.

    RE: boycott liberal businesses. Epic Systems Corporation is very liberal and supplies electronic health care records for 60% of US medical organizations directly and more through affiliate agreements. Do, yes, boycott medical care. It couldn’t happen to a nicer person. Citation Needed

    RE: Hating god and america. *God* hasn’t done me any harm (or good -- what with not existing), but god-bag zealots deserve to be despised. I don’t hate the country. I hate the mindless mandatory jingoism that the right leverages to silence justified criticism.
