19/20. In which episode was Cletus’ last name revealed? If it’s anything after Season 10, then fuck off.

I wouldn’t necessarily be surprised if Jonah Hill turned out to be a douche, considering purely subjective views of wealthy, famous people. But those were low-brow questions meant to pander to the basest of audiences. That doesn’t make them wrong, but yeah he doesn’t have to answer that shit.

The irony is that we are all animals; primates. Race is an illusory construct. Racists have to be willing to be that stupid to not get that. Besides, I don’t think someone who’s supposed to be working a job that helps people should be guaranteed the right to hold racist views and keep their job. But such is the reality of bureaucratic institutions.

20/20! George likes his chicken spicy.

I used to be such an extrovert; going to parties or bars after work (willingly) or spending my weekends getting crazy drunk until 4 am in the winter, regardless of how cold it was. Then something happened and now I just want to smoke weed and watch The X-Files. Plus I don’t drink anymore, so I have a great excuse not to suffer social events! “A bar? Wish I could! Really!”

Ah, Rob Scheinder. The man just won’t quit.

Fucking crazy. So sad. I’m happy I got a chance to see them many years back while still in high school.

Is this one of those “don’t hate my hatred” things? Or, “tolerate my intolerance?” That’s a logical fallacy, especially when considering what you’re suggesting: that, somehow, that misinformed view is equal to and as valid as an argument from fact (or at least, some semblance of reality). It’s a moronic argument and it’s a tool designed to sabotage positive conversation. Sure, my use of “moron” may be ad hominem in nature, but considering the subject (willfully ignorant people proudly displaying it as a virtue), I feel that sort of editorializing is warranted.

This is why American comedies are so bad. No one plays a real person who can laugh at themselves, rather they play static caricatures that are SO SERIOUS BUT NOT REALLY LOL. As if making silly faces and winking at the audience was “relatable.”

I’m aware of all those conspiracies you listed, and yes, the government (and others) have perpetrated those. But those conspiracies are often exposed and researched thoroughly. This is because the government isn’t a monolithic, opaque, singular institution but a bureaucratic mess of complex interactions and smaller institutions and organizations.  I do not doubt that there are covert operations at hand and that they may or may not be ongoing, but with so many exposed, it’s hard to buy that ultra-secretive “conspiracies” that looney conspiracy theorists espouse actually exist. If anything, those extreme fantasies take away from what’s actually going on, and I do not see Alex Jones fighting against that. He’s inhibiting focus from real issues by asserting importance on non-existant ones. It’s a business of misinformation, and he’s in on it. Is it part of a much larger issue? Possibly, but probably not. Chances are, Jones believes his own hype. It’s just coincidental that it’s good for his business of misinformation.
