Dear Coalition of Assholes,

By hook or by crook, twice now you have elected a despicable bastard president. The first time brought a nightmare of chaotic incompetence. By far the worst American presidency ever. This second is poised to deliver the coup de grace to our democracy, to our once great Nation.

What the hell were you (those of you who can) thinking? Do any of you have a clue as to what you have done? We the victims, the slightly more than half of Americans, — the world — deserve, demand, answers.

Collectively, why were so many of you so willing to believe all the lies?

  • Was it because they were what you wanted to believe?
  • Was it because they agreed with your beliefs?

For those of you who are racists:

  • What year is it?
  • What are America’s demographics?
  • What led you to believe you were superior to anyone else?
  • What does democracy mean?

For those of you who want to kill someone:

  • Were you trained to kill by the US Government?
  • Was the desire engendered?
  • What does this say about you?
  • Do you think that this is normal?

For those amongst you who want to kill someone and are a Doctor of Medicine:

  • How in the hell do you rationalize your positions?

For those amongst you who are lawyers:

  • How in the hell do you rationalize your positions?

For those of you who are ‘my way or the highway’; for tearing the house down:

  • Do you know what anarchy is?
  • Do you have any idea what fascism is?
  • Can you name one good quality of Jim Jordan?

For those of you who don’t believe in science:

  • Is it because science conflicts with your religious beliefs?
  • Is it perhaps because you don’t have much knowledge of science?

For those amongst you who are Evangelical Christians:

  • What does it mean to be a Christian?

Collectively:

  • Why the great aversion to thinking?
  • Why the great aversion to reality?
  • Is this the first time you have seen a twelve-year-old boy stand in the middle of a room and demand that everyone’s attention be focused on him?
  • Do you think the soon-to-again-be-president is intelligent enough, knowledgeable enough, to be president?

From Hemingway’s On Blue Water to the Three Percenters:

  • There is no hunting like the hunting of man, and those who have hunted armed men long enough and liked it, never care for anything else thereafter.
