Face of the Left

Ah – I love the left. Nothing like a little compassion, love and social justice to make the cockles of one’s heart glow with Choke, Cough, Splutter

We're leveling the playing field already. This is just one more, and it's not the last. I love the way we fucked that dirty little shithead Gannon. We'll fuck more of them before this is over. God, I love the smell of ruined Republicans in the morning!
We have to learn to enjoy hurting people, hurting them a lot, hurting them any way we can and every chance we get. Anybody who's not with us, we fuck him and fuck him hard. Anything we can get, anything that'll stick. Remember when LBJ floated a rumor that an opponent, a pig farmer, had sex with his own pigs? An aide told LBJ nobody'd believe it. LBJ said "I know, I just want to hear the sonofabitch denying it." That's our model.

Well, Azazel never said he plays particularly nice. If you think that you are so superior in terms of intelligence, foresight and risk analysis that you believe you can control or dictate what I can and can’t do, then I’m going to call you on it. In fact I may even call you nasty names.

Conservative/Libertarian commentators such as Andrew Bolt & Janet Albrechtson in Australia or Mark Steyn or Anne Coulter in the US usually rely on ridicule and humour to belittle the left. Okay, admittedly Anne Coulter goes a little overboard from time to time but I don’t think I’ve ever heard her say “Fuck them, hurt them, any way we can.”

It’s just an observation but it seems to me that left and right, particularly on university campuses have two entirely different approaches to things.

Right: I have an internally consistent ideology supported by centuries of philosophical thought and debate. My ideas are superior and are supported by logic, I just need to get the message out there. Maybe I’m not explaining myself clearly enough. I need to try to be more concise and logical in order to convert more believers.

Left: I have an ideology that promises to correct the perceived ills of society, but they’re all out to get me. The police, the politicians, the MAN – you know. It’s no point in trying to convert any normal people out there, they’re all consumerist drones captured by the multinationals and brainwashed with capitalist advertising working as slaves. I have to do anything, ANYTHING at all in order to free them of their slavery – then they might understand just how cool my ideas are.

I’ll throw in a few personal experiences to support this theory.

Azazel, once upon a time when dinosaurs walked the earth, was involved in campus politics. A strident libertarian I ran with or organised any number of right wing tickets to win our student organisation. The left held control of that organisation and stooped to any means to retain control including, but not limited to:

• Appointing openly biased electoral officers. In one case one of these left wing EO’s attempted to sexually assault our presidential candidate. The same EO, in a different year, disqualified another of our presidential candidates for failing to stop a fight between two 6 foot tall 270 lbd thugs when firstly she was a five foot tall 100 lbd asian girl and secondly Thug number one had been racially vilifying her. Thug one, of course was one of the lefts candidates and escaped scot free.
  
• Another biased EO disqualified every single opposition team in one year on incredibly thin grounds to give the unpopular incumbent left team an open field run.
  Amusingly enough, after lobbying, various threats of legal action, threats of intervention by the universities peak body, the left finally allowed an impartial electoral officer and strangely enough lost in a landslide in the first year of free elections.
  
• Add to all of this type of behaviour a few others. Mrs Azazel was almost run down in a car park by a crazy lesbian “activist”, and by run down I don’t mean, oops sorry I didn’t see you there. I mean foot flat to the floor, swerving for her and the only reason today I still have her is that she dived between some other parked cars.

I could go on for hours, stories about malicious litigation funded by student unions designed solely to bankrupt right wing activists, stalking of female candidates, home invasions staged by left wingers, the scar on Mrs Azazel’s forehead caused by another rabid lesbian troll king-hitting her whilst wearing a bulky ring.

Essentially there are no boundaries on left wing behaviour. As the quote from Kos above suggests: "We have to learn to enjoy hurting people, hurting them a lot, hurting them any way we can and every chance we get. Anybody who's not with us, we fuck him and fuck him hard.”

That ladies and gentlemen is the face of the left.
