It’s amazing what they’ll just come out and say on YouTube


Roy Moore lost the election in Alabama, but he refuses to concede. He’s put out a video explaining why. It’s revolting.

After a brief nod to the fact that they’re still counting some military ballots (won’t make a difference to the outcome), he gets around to the real reason. It’s too important to God to allow godless sodomites to have a say in an election. We have to stop abortion, homosexuals, and men who claim to be women, and we need to have prayer in the schools, and Immorality sweeps over our land! To preserve our republic and honor the Constitution, he is going to deny the outcome of an election. Well, gosh, can we also deny the outcome of the last presidential election simply because the asshole-in-chief is an affront to morality?

I don’t think he understands the concept of a republic. Remember that next time some theocrat runs for office — their intent is to destroy that institution.

Hey, you know who else doesn’t understand anything? Carl Benjamin, aka Sargon of Akkad. Benjamin really is a Nazi at heart. He did a hangout with another alt-right fuckwit, MillennialWoes, and they let it all hang out. What is he afraid of?

You’ve got diversity in everything…it’s terrifying, isn’t it?

He’s terrified because…what? Brown people and gay people and women might also get employed and share equal status with his pale right-wing brothers? This is a blatantly racist, anti-egalitarian statement — and he probably wouldn’t consider my criticism a rebuke, but something to be proud of.

He’s also afraid of SJWs, because they’re a fucking massive problem. We have a terrible great power.

…the reason thousands of young girls are getting raped is not because the police didn’t want to do something or couldn’t do something. It was because they were afraid of social justice warriors calling them racist.

That doesn’t even make sense. Say or do something racist, and someone might rightly say to you that you’re a racist, therefore the problem is…people able to point out reality? A policeman might shoot an unarmed black man to death, but that’s OK — the real horror to a Sargoonian is that someone might point to a pattern of such incidents and declare that there is clear evidence of racist oppression. Say it right out loud, in public!

So we need to silence those goddamn SJWs.

The worst case scenario for the alt-right’s success in this endeavor is less intolerable to me and my family than the SJW success. So from a tactical evaluation, I have to choose this angle. I have to try and explain to the alt-right that they can get what they want and they should take this gambit, even if it means the end of liberal democracy.

I don’t think there’s much difference between old Christian theocrats and the new Nazis at this point.

    “… our economy is faltering under an enormous national debt…” Well surely he wouldn’t vote for the republican tax plan then, like all those principled senators…

    Why did I even watch that?

    “the police didn’t want to do something or couldn’t do something. It was because they were afraid of social justice warriors calling them racist.”

    Yeah, remember that one time when someone called police racists and all policemen in the entire country resigned in shame, and it was chaos and America was destroyed? Yeah, the awesome power of calling police racists is not to be trifled with.

    Christ, the status quo warriors are the biggest fucking crybabies on this planet.

    While others are fighting for things like equal pay and their right to feel safe in public, these whiny assholes are literally being offended by a black man being cast in a movie and video game critiques.

    Roy Moore, just like Pat McCrory, refusing reality. I’d bet that Moore is busy praying his ass off for Jehovah to strike Jones dead.

  5. call me mark says

    I could feel the brain cells dying as I watched that. A politician in the UK would be laughed out of an election for all that godding. How has Roy Moore ever been elected to anything?

  6. weylguy says

    Moore is every religious conservative’s wet dream — a Bible- and Constitution-spouting ignoramus who thanks God for the land and labor his fellow whites stole from millions of enslaved minorities and the millions of indigenous peoples we slaughtered to possess the resources we now proudly claim as our God-given right.

    America dodged a bullet in barely defeating this monster in the election, but our Republican-led government is rife with the same kind of greedy, sanctimonious, misogynistic ideology Moore represents. We have long way to go, but to tell the truth I really can’t see us making it short of impeaching Trump and wiping out the entire Republican Party.

    You’d think that at some point someone who is so sure that god is in control might start to think that maybe god is sending him a message to fuck off.

  8. Holms says

    This particular race was watched not only by the people of this state, but by the entire nation, and many around the world. Why? Because I believe the heart and soul of our country is at stake.

    No, it was more out of a horrified fascination at the possibility that a person very credibly accused of child molestation might actually become a US senator. We marvel at the sheer filth the Republican party tolerates amongst their own membership.

    […] Our forefathers recognised in the declaration of independence, that all men, and women, were created equal.

    Pretty rich coming from a guy who recently stated that america was at its greatest in the era that predated the female and the non-white vote, still had active military campaigns against – and corralling of – the original inhabitants, and of course still had slavery. A man that has stated he is against every amendment except the first ten does not get to claim any moral high ground whatsoever. What a sickening man.

    I want to give a little context on Carlgon’s comment about

    …the reason thousands of young girls are getting raped is not because the police didn’t want to do something or couldn’t do something. It was because they were afraid of social justice warriors calling them racist.

    There have been a few incidents of sex abuse gangs in the UK, often made up largely of immigrant men. In at least one of the cases, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotherham_child_sexual_exploitation_scandal , police and government officials knew about the abuse for years before anything was done, and fear of being called racist was often mentioned as a contributing factor to the lack of action. So, Carlgon’s complaint isn’t completely nonsensical, it’s just completely wrong. The police didn’t do anything because they didn’t care enough about the victims to rock the boat. They weren’t afraid of crusading SJWs; they just didn’t want to upset the status quo for the sake of a few (hundred or thousand) lower class girls.

  10. Mobius says

    What Moore seems to have cared about is ” life, liberty and the pursuit of little girls”. And not so much about the “life” and “liberty” parts.

    Hopefully, this is the last we will see of Moore on the political seen. He has been a disgrace, even among Republicans.

  11. Ed Seedhouse says

    To steal from and then paraphrase Stephen Colbert, Roy Moore indeed worked a miracle – he got a Democrat elected in Arizona. Hallelujah!

    No, it’s life.
    Unless you make sure that you stay in your white cis male safe space echo bubble, you will notice quickly that there’s all kinds of people out there.

    police and government officials knew about the abuse for years before anything was done, and fear of being called racist was often mentioned as a contributing factor to the lack of action.

    Because we all know that British police and government are totally hard on child abuse when it’s a white dude #operation yewtree.
    It may have been a contributing factor, but the more significant one seems to be that the children simply didn’t matter. Poor working class girls, often in state care, we all know what little sl*ts they are, right?

  13. Athaic says

    the reason thousands of young girls are getting raped is not because the police didn’t want to do something or couldn’t do something. It was because they were afraid of social justice warriors calling them racist.

    Ah, I see Jethro and Giliell already deciphered this part.

    The reasoning behind this is quite obvious, once you get the right frame of mind.
    These Nazis only see rape when the victims are young white women and the perpetrators are ugly dirty brown/black/yellow/green men. So of course, if only the police was allowed to secure the streets by moving in and mowing down all these foreigners, without fear of being called names, like “due process”…
    Remember, these guys’ forefathers or great-great-cousins hanged black teenagers for the crime of maybe whistling at a white woman.

    Election night one of Moore’s campaign people also mentioned the write in military vote, which had me rolling my eyes. They assume anyone who joins the US military is a “true believer” right winger like they are.

    The worst case scenario with the “alt-right” is a new Shoah in the most powerful nation in the world. Given US nuclear capabilities, that’s pretty much guaranteed to end with billions dead, rather than merely tens of millions.

    SJW success means genuinely equal opportunity for everyone. It means universal healthcare, universal minimum income, an end to senseless wars, etc. It means a society that works for everyone, instead of one that works exclusively for the rich.

    Carl Benjamin would literally rather murder the world than face the possibility that one day people of color might be treated well.

    “You’ve got diversity in everything…it’s terrifying, isn’t it?”
    First class wanker is the man from Swindon. He makes it sound like people ‘not like him’ are somehow deliberately in the way, an impediment to him, like a fucking inconvenience instead of you know, an actual person just getting on with their life, in the body they happen to have found themselves born in.

    Generally, I often wonder how swingon would feel if somebody sat next to him and his kids and said ‘don’t worry Carl, I wouldn’t even throttle your kids’. You know, talking about the ‘absence of throttling’ and all that, I assume he just say ‘that’s free speech, that’s ok’.

    Eh, the fundies mindlessly support Israel and their proximate primary target is anyone who isn’t straight and gender-conforming. The neo-Nazi types seem to have more or less re-settled on Jews as their primary target. Which could lead to conflict between them down the line, and to them becoming even more cartoonish than they are now:

    “Rabbi season!”
    *rips off poster* “Dyke season!”
    *rips off poster* “Rabbi season!”
    *rips off poster* “Dyke season!”

    Has anyone else noticed how this all seems to be building to an increasingly-accelerating head, faster and faster every day? Something big is about to happen; I can feel the strain on the timeline and it’s making it very hard to continue to live and work day by day. Something is going to rupture and it’ll be one hell of a snap. The shockwave is going to echo for decades if not centuries.

    I’ve been getting what I sincerely hope are not precognitive warnings of my own death within the next 2 years.

    You’ve got diversity in everything…it’s terrifying, isn’t it?

    Even when I stupidly and blindly thought affirmative action was taking opportunities from me (a white boy at the time) I didn’t think of diversity as a bad thing. I had no problem working or going to school with African Americans; in fact I generally preferred working with them as they were less likely to slack off in their work. I just didn’t want to think that my intelligence would be overlooked because of affirmative action. Now I know my intelligence was highly overrated (by myself) at the time, and affirmative action didn’t really take anything away from white people.
    Yes, I know I was (and still am, unfortunately) racist in some ways. I’m trying to be better every day.

    JKRowling, the prophet of Hogwarts, gave a brilliant response to Moore’s observation that “God is in charge” Rowling replied,
    “Roy is correct and didn’t he know She’s Black?”

  23. davidnangle says

    Marissa van Eck, I feel that way sometimes, too. It’s when I think a dictatorship or military coup is coming, and knowing I won’t live under such a system.

    But I remind myself, most or all of the crazy spree shooters probably feel that way, too, just before they break. And I just try to look at the long view.

  24. Jeremy Shaffer says

    [Carl Benjamin]’s terrified because…what? Brown people and gay people and women might also get employed and share equal status with his pale right-wing brothers?

    Terrified that if people have to actually get along on their own merits he’ll be left in the dust. Unearned and undue concession is all he has going for him, after all.

    [The assertion that police don’t investigate rape because they’ll be called racists] doesn’t even make sense.

    It makes sense if you believe only men of color commit rape, which Carlgon does given how the only crimes he ever seems to acknowledge or rail about are those (allegedly) committed by nonwhites. He only seems to recognize those perpetrated by white people if they are his political or ideological enemies, or if he can pin it on them in some way. Point in fact, in that same hangout Carlgon repeats the claim that Heather Heyer died of a heart attack and not from being run over in Charlottesville and previously blamed “fucking feminist system” and ironically Laci Green* for the Elliot Roger shootings.

    * This was long before her “red pilling”, so I’m sure Carlgon has since retroactively absolved her of any and all complicity in those murders and assaults.

    The worst case scenario for the alt-right’s success in this endeavor is less intolerable to me and my family than the SJW success. So from a tactical evaluation, I have to choose this angle. I have to try and explain to the alt-right that they can get what they want and they should take this gambit, even if it means the end of liberal democracy.

    Spoken like the true bastion of liberalism Carlgon claims to be, and with the full expectation of being taken for serious thinkers as only those fully mired up their own ass can achieve.

    Jeremy Shaffer @26

    Wait, what!? Are there seriously people who think that Heather Heyer didn’t die from getting run over? There’s video of that white supremacist shithead driving his car into the crowd. How can anyone be stupid enough to claim that being hit by his car wasn’t what killed Heyer?

    It all comes down to “heart failure”.
    You get decapitated, your heart keeps pumping until it “fails” to find blood to pump:
    heart failure
    .
    Someone parks an SUV on your pelvis, your heart keeps pumping until it “fails” to find blood to pump:
    heart failure
    .
    Someone shoots you in the back, your heart keeps pumping until it “fails” to find blood to pump:
    heart failure
    .
    So it goes.
