blue bits. red rocks.
Monday 13 August 2012

Paul Ryan is an devotee of Ayn Rand and her extreme version of libertarianism. In this world, the government should be all but destroyed, and “negative freedom” is the only type of liberty to be pursued. Thanks to populist Right-wing bloviators such as Glenn Beck, and think tanks funded by the Koch Brothers and others, Rand’s bad sci-fi dystopian writings have been transformed into policy briefs and legislative guidelines for the Tea Party GOP. I marvel at the political hydra and mismatched set of alliances that the contemporary Republican Party has become. The Tea Party GOP is a conglomeration of Christian Dominionists and Nationalists, reactionary white racists, neo-Secessionists, and plutocratic corporatists. The mouth breathers in the Tea Party are dupes who are driven by opines about patriotism and the alien Other in “their” White House. These same folks are driven by a crudely selfish, exclusionary, and Calvinist-like understanding of faith where “the elect” are shown god’s love and divinity by how much money and worldly goods they are “rewarded with” by their godhead. The banksters laugh—as they always do—at how they can so easily play and manipulate the peons into working against their own immediate and long-term class interests. And of course, the real party leaders such as Rush Limbaugh get paid the big bucks, for they are the Archons who defend the ideological “purity” of the Tea Party GOP and gin up witch hunts against those deemed inauthentic and weak. We are respectable negroes
