I like that he's standing out on his porch with his shoulders back, his demeanor manful and his proud bosom upthrust. He's so very proud of his incomprehensible batshit display. Pity he's ruined a fairly cozy-looking little house.

Why don't we have counter-vitriol?
The Left Wing Tea Partiers.
All the crazy and hate, except left wing flavored.
Yes I have a fascination with intense hatred.

Uh, duh! Because the fetuses are innocent, but the second you're born, original sin kicks in and you deserve Hell.

Theory... to many of us think about what we do. The cognitive dissonance gets us. IF we started shouting about getting gov out of our medicare and somebody pointed out that medicare is gov run and our argument is stupid, many would probably go "Shit your right" and stop. Teabaggers are under no such restriction. Though there were such people in the 60 and 70s. And the violent protesters at G20 summits might count since they undo the work of the more plentiful peaceful protesters (and before someone points it out, yes at least some of those "anarchists" seem to be Agent Provocateurs. But I don't think all of them are)

Because little pisses them off more than being proven wrong. Counter vitriol only encourages them, makes it look like both sides are in a bitter conflict of ideologues. If you want to beat them is to simply prove their beliefs are wrong, or better yet have no basis in reality. Won't win them over, but neither will booing and hissing at them. Works wonders on folks who are on the fence though. This is pretty much the perfect frame of reference as to why people who call religion evil, or dangerous annoy me. They just play into the hands of the people who are looking to start a fight. Works in politics as well.

True, but I just want to see how far the exchange of hatred would go and what it could escalate into. Ok it is just a thought experiment. I don't want it to happen, but damn it I have a curiosity.

"Ah luvs mah cuntry n mah gunz." You won't be saying that when the zombies come. You'll be more like Tallahassee: "Thank God for rednecks!"

You're right, the rednecks will slow them down as they foolishly try to fight the zombies while more insightful individuals worry about long term survival strategies.

You're right, the rednecks will slow them down as they foolishly try to fight the zombies while more insightful individuals worry about long term survival strategies. Oh no, that's far too kind. My main idea is that while they stockpiled for the Race War, they let their brains die from constant intoxication from drinking rotgut liquor. Now, with their brains in a more, shall we say, primitive state, they'll be easy cannon fodder while the intelligent ones of us will clean the area of zombies, and take all their rations, guns, ammo, and vehicles. Utilize the preparedness and idiocy of your enemy to your advantage...in defeating your real enemy.
