They just aren’t any good at it

Lefties try hoaxes and stunts in politics all the time, but much like the ginning up a fake Army Ranger or a mock campaign group, they just don’t know how. It’s always betrayed in the vocabulary if not the terminology itself:

« En 1998, le groupe propose un morceau pour l'hymne de la coupe monde de football : "Marre des racailles et des nègres" qui sera finalement refusé par la FIFA. Le groupe se retire alors en corrèze pour composer le maxi : "Croix de lorraine" qui sortira en 2000 sur le label "Catholic records", un maxi totalement dédié au général de Gaulle et à l'église catholique, comme en témoignent les morceaux "Coq gaullois" ou "Un Christ court dans la nuit". »

In 1998, the group proposed a theme song for the World Cup: “Enough of the rabble and negros” which FIFA finally refused. The group then replied with something to raise the stakes in 2000 with “The Cross of Lorraine” which will be published by “Catholic Records”, and completely dedicated to General de Gaulle and to the Catholic church, with the tracks “Rooster of Gaulle” and “Christ runs the night”.

Not knowing anything about civil society outside their little bubble, they mix up concepts to tar one with the sin of the other – mixing faith (positive to all but them) with racism (negative to all), patriotism (positive to all but them) with religion (positive to all but them) – they give away their position.

They wish these are things that Conservatives themselves actually do. It makes it easier for them no not listen to anything they have to say. The only problem is that in their lack of sophistication and lack of capacity for empathy they direct their nonsense at nothing.



Remember – you aren’t cool enough, so suspend all though and drink their kool-aid...

When you look at “The People’s Cube,” for example, there is satire which actually tells you what they disagree with through the mockey. The image below by “The Yes men” says nothing intelligible other than their distaste for grooming and desire to promote effected speech that suburbanite kids think is genuinely “urban”. Meaningful political goals, indeed, but in reality it’s condescending to any urban dweller such as this blogger and most any black person, and says nothing which is politically substantial – they are depending on the fact that you ‘just know’ what the associations are. The reason for the tacit communications is because it’s largely made up of slander or is mendacious: “Bush planned the 9/11 attacks” or “it’s the OIL MEN who make gas costly, not demand...”


They are quite literally Aping, just as a racist would disengage the man from the demon they want you to see. It’s a way of making ideas just not matter. Anyone care to call them on their motives?
