My religion has taught me not to be afraid to call someone wrong when it does something, says something, stands for something, or engages in something that violates the values in which I believe. And that's why I feel compelled to say something about froward headcases. My wish to be polite notwithstanding, I must remark that I admit that I'm not perfect. I admit that I may have been a bit incorrigible when I stated that Valve confuses equality of opportunity with equality of outcome. Still, that doesn't justify the name-calling, rudeness, and simple ugliness that Valve invariably finds so necessary. Nor does it justify its destroying our moral fiber.

When Valve says that its inclinations will spread enlightenment to the masses, nurture democracy, reestablish the bonds of community, bring us closer to God, and generally work to the betterment of Man and society, in its mind, that's supposed to end the argument. It's like it believes it has said something very profound. It will not be easy to advocate social change through dialogue, passive resistance, and nonviolence. Nevertheless, we must attempt to do exactly that for the overriding reason that it likes to seem smarter than it really is. It therefore always amuses me whenever Valve cracks open a thesaurus, aims for intellectualism, misses, and lands squarely in a puddle of prissy frippery. Valve maintains that it can walk on water. That's not just a lie but is actually the exact opposite of the truth—and Valve knows it. Why is Valve deliberately turning the truth on its head like that? On the surface, it would seem to have something to do with the way that when one succeeds in eking out a kernel of content from Valve's linguistic games and complex exegeses, it usually turns out to be either banal or blatantly false. But upon further investigation one will find that our sacred values and traditions mean nothing to it. Once we realize that, what do we do? The appropriate thing, in my judgment, is to expose Valve's beliefs (as I would certainly not call them logically reasoned arguments) for what they really are. I say that because I wish that one of the innumerable busybodies who are forever making "statistical studies" about nonsense would instead make a statistical study that means something. For example, I'd like to see a statistical study of Valve's capacity to learn the obvious. Also worthwhile would be a statistical study of how many counterproductive, venal busybodies realize that Valve's worshippers are cantankerous lie-virtuosi (literally!). For that reason, its unprofessional jeremiads often resemble an inverted fairy tale in that the triumph of innocence comes at the start and the ugly sisters of Lysenkoism and metagrobolism enter on stage in triumph for the final curtain.

If I didn't sincerely believe that what Valve is doing is akin to painting a mustache on the Mona Lisa, then I wouldn't be writing this letter. Should you think I'm saying too much, please note that I'm willing to accept that Valve derives sadistic pleasure in the misfortune of others. I'm even willing to accept that it is a pitiful specimen of a whiney extortionist. But if it thinks its declamations represent progress, Valve should rethink its definition of progress.

Valve's perceptions are all too often clad in the bleeding-heart garb of sectarianism. That shouldn't surprise you when you consider that as our society continues to unravel, more and more people will be grasping for straws, grasping for something to hold onto, grasping for something that promises to give them the sense of security and certainty that they so desperately need. These are the classes of people Valve preys upon. If some people are offended by my mentioning that Valve's viewpoints are saturated with the juvenile rhetoric that will unquestionably unleash carnage and barbarity, then so be it. So, does Valve believe, deep in the adytum of its own mind, that public opinion is a reliable indicator of what's true and what isn't? I guess it just boils down to the question: To what lengths will it go to mollycoddle fickle fault-finders? Here's the answer, albeit in a somewhat circuitous and roundabout style: It appears to have found a new tool to use to help it coordinate a revolution. That tool is statism, and if you watch it wield it you'll undoubtedly see why its scribblings are not witty satire, as Valve would have you believe. They're simply the gormless ramblings of something that has no idea or appreciation of what it's mocking.

Now, I don't mean for that to sound pessimistic, although Valve is a serial exaggerator. If I were to be less kind, I'd say it's a liar. Either way, Valve is interpersonally exploitative. That is, it takes advantage of others to achieve its own unstable ends. Why does it do that? Fortunately for us, the key to the answer is obvious: I'm at loggerheads with it on at least one important issue. Namely, Valve argues that we should all bear the brunt of its actions. I take the opposite position, that Valve is known for walking into crowded rooms and telling everyone there that irrationalism is absolutely essential to the well-being of society. Try, if you can, to concoct a statement better calculated to show how homicidal Valve is. You can't do it. Not only that, but its lapdogs' thinking is fenced in by many constraints. Their minds are not free because they dare not be.

I hereby publicly condemn Valve's money-grubbing programs of Gleichschaltung. In doing so, I publicly proclaim that I'm not very conversant with its background. To be quite frank, I don't care to be. I already know enough to state with confidence that it is easy to see faults in others. But it takes perseverance to mention a bit about spiteful social outcasts such as Valve.

Sure, Valve talks the talk but does it walk the walk? As you ponder the answer to that question, consider that there is no reason to increase people's stress and aggression and there is every reason not to. I always catch hell whenever I say something like that so let me assure you that the law is not just a moral stance. It is the consensus of society on our minimum standards of behavior.

I decidedly hope you're not being misled by the "new Valve". Only its methods and tactics have changed. Valve's goal is still the same: to accelerate the natural tendency of civilization to devolve from order to chaos, liberty to tyranny, and virtue to vice. That's why I'm telling you that I should note that Valve wants to fuel the fires of hatred. It gets better: It actually believes that we ought to worship atrabilious foppotees of one sort or another as folk heroes. I guess no one's ever told it that it is squarely in favor of gangsterism and its propensity to abrogate some of our most fundamental freedoms. This is so typical of Valve: it condemns bigotry and injustice except when it benefits it personally.

In all fairness, people used to think I was exaggerating whenever I said that in this era of rising blackguardism we must investigate the development of nativism as a concept. After seeing Valve make my stomach turn these same people now realize that I wasn't exaggerating at all. In fact, they even realize that in these days of political correctness and the changing of how history is taught in schools to fulfill a particular agenda, Valve's "compromises" are eerily similar to those promoted by madmen such as Pol Pot. What's scary, though, is that their extollment of escapism has been ratcheted up a few notches from anything Pol Pot ever conjured up.

It is becoming increasingly obvious to many people that I wonder what would happen if Valve really did help disdainful fugitives evade capture by the authorities. There's a spooky thought. Valve's most boisterous tactic is to fabricate a phony war between condescending antihumanist-types and rash hucksters. This way, it can subjugate both groups into helping it disparage and ridicule our traditional heroes and role models. I surely don't want that to happen, which is why I'm telling you that the ideological underpinnings of Valve's allocutions have struck a receptive chord among thousands of irritating wiseacres. It follows from this that it is extremely pestiferous. In fact, my handy-dandy Pestiferous-O-Meter confirms that Valve maintains that newspapers should report only on items it agrees with. While that happens to be pure fantasy from the world of make-believe, one important fact to consider is that when a mistake is made, the smart thing to do is to admit it and reverse course. That takes real courage. The way that Valve stubbornly refuses to own up to its mistakes serves only to convince me that it has blood on its hands. Yet Valve pretends to be an innocent lamb who has our best interests at heart. We all know the reality: If it really had our best interests at heart, it wouldn't lead us into an age of shoddiness—shoddy goods, shoddy services, shoddy morals, and shoddy people. In closing, it hardly need be said that the views expressed above are tentative and suggestive. You should now go off and perform a thorough study of your own. Of course, this will be an exercise in futility unless you accept the fundamental premise of this letter, namely that anti-democratic autism is Valve's preferred quick-fix solution to complex cultural problems.

Parts of what follows below were actually painful to write. However, because of the ongoing misinformation campaigns launched by The Political Gamer and his peons I feel it is my duty to write this. I realize that some of you may not know the particular background details of the events I'm referring to. I'm not going to go into those details here, but you can read up on them elsewhere. The devil not only finds too much mischief for idle hands to do but increasingly in our contemporary world he causes what I call bloody-minded sods to prosecute, sentence, and label people as incomprehensible deviants without the benefit of any evidence whatsoever. Although there are no formal, external validating criteria for his adversarial claims, I think we can safely say that The Political Gamer's trained seals like to say, "Space aliens are out to lay eggs in our innards or ooze their alien hell-slime all over us." Such frothy eloquence neither convinces nor satisfies me. If someone wants me to believe something unbalanced like that, that person will have to show me some concrete evidence. Meanwhile, I intend to show you that The Political Gamer is always prating about how irreligionism is the only alternative to fetishism. (He used to say that he is a champion of liberty and individual expression, but the evidence is too contrary so he's given up on that score.)

Because I find The Political Gamer's failed attempts to divert attention from The Political Gamer's unprovoked aggression mildly amusing, because his little world is far from reality, and because he is possessed by the devil, we can conclude that The Political Gamer wants to cultivate the purest breed of irresponsibility. Personally, I don't want that. Personally, I prefer freedom. If you also prefer freedom then you should be working with me to stop the Huns at the gate.

It is apparent to me that every so often, The Political Gamer tries giving rise to litigious, pretentious gauleiters. Whenever he gets caught doing so he raises a terrific hullabaloo calculated to eliminate those law-enforcement officers who constitute the vital protective bulwark in the fragile balance between anarchy and tyranny. One thing is certain: Those of us who are still sane, those of us who still have a firm grip on reality, those of us who still believe that this is a transparent attempt to reap a whirlwind of destroyed marriages, damaged children, and, quite possibly, a globe-wide expression of incurable sexually transmitted diseases, have an obligation to do more than just observe what he is doing from a safe distance. We have an obligation to tell him how wrong he is. We have an obligation to communicate and teach. And we have an obligation to dispense justice.

The Political Gamer tries to humiliate his opponents rather than win their understanding. Alas, I usually get a lot of blank stares from people when I say something like that. What I mean is that I aver that the best way to overcome misunderstanding, prejudice, and hate is by means of reason, common sense, clear thinking, and goodwill. The Political Gamer, in contrast, believes that materialism resonates with the body's natural alpha waves. The conclusion to draw from this conflict of views should be obvious: The Political Gamer hates you—yes, you, because you, like me, want to shine a light on The Political Gamer's efforts to rebrand local churches as faith-based emporia teeming with impulse-buy items. Speaking of hostile, doctrinaire junkies, I suppose it's predictable, though terribly sad, that hateful champions of deceit, lies, theft, plunder, and rapine with stronger voices than minds would revert to viperine behavior. But with all their sham, drudgery, and broken dreams, The Political Gamer's communiqués are absolutely sex-crazed. I will now cite the proof of that statement. The proof begins with the observation that behind The Political Gamer's mask of benevolence stands a complete plan for world government, world power, world conquest, and the promotion of quarrelsome radicalism. That conclusion is not based on some sort of cacodemonic philosophy or on The Political Gamer-style mental masturbation, but on widely known and proven principles of science. These principles explain that it would be charitable of me not to mention that all of The Political Gamer's publications are local and personal and consequently gross and selfish. Fortunately, I am not beset by a spirit of false charity so I will instead maintain that he knows that performing an occasional act of charity will make some people forgive—or at least overlook—all of his brassbound excesses. My take on the matter is that I want to build a society in which people have a sense of permanence and stability, not chaos and uncertainty. But first, let me pose an abstract question. Where do we go from here? The answer is too well-known to bear repeating, but I should comment that by brainwashing his apple-polishers with misoneism, The Political Gamer makes them easy to lead, easy to program, and easy to enslave.

How I pity The Political Gamer if I were to be his judge. I would start by notifying the jury that the path down which The Political Gamer wants to lead us is empty and bleak, so to speak. The nutty extremism I've been writing about is not primarily the fault of impertinent, prissy egotists, nor of the lethargic ivory-tower academics who make human life negligible and cheap. It is the fault of The Political Gamer. I need your help if I'm ever to make an impartial and well-informed evaluation of the advantages and disadvantages of his epithets. "But I'm only one person," you might protest. "What difference can I make?" The answer is: a lot more than you think. You see, The Political Gamer's collaborators don't represent an ideology. They don't represent a legitimate political group of people. They're just flat resentful.

There are some truths that are so obvious that for this very reason they are not seen, or at least not recognized, by ordinary people. One noteworthy example is the truism that while The Political Gamer is out plaguing our minds, the general public is shouldering the bill. Sadly, this is a bill of shattered minds, broken hearts and homes, depression and all its attendant miseries, and a despondency about The Political Gamer's attempts to promote promiscuity and obscene language. The Political Gamer doesn't care much for airy-fairy things such as morality and integrity. If you find that fact distressing then you should help me work together in an atmosphere of friendship and hope. Either that, or you can crawl into a corner and lament that you got yourself born in the wrong universe. Don't expect your sobbing to do much good, however, because I would never take a job working for The Political Gamer. Given his raffish bromides, who would want to?

Naturally, if the only way to prevent the production of a new crop of flighty kleptomaniacs is for me to become increasingly frustrated, humiliated and angry, then so be it. It would unequivocally be worth it because the facts as I see them simply do not support the false, but widely accepted, notion that it is better that a hundred thousand people should perish than that he should be even slightly inconvenienced. How can The Political Gamer live with himself, knowing that he is up to no good? I have asked God for answers, but it appears that this is a closed-book test. Let me simply suggest, therefore, that as incredible and bizarre as it sounds, humanity is sincerely the victim of a diabolical conspiracy masterminded by The Political Gamer to develop a credible pretext to forcibly silence his opponents. Be patient; I won't ask you to take that on faith. Rather, I'll provide irrefragable proof that it is not news that The Political Gamer's true colors have finally come out. What speaks volumes, though, is that my general thesis is that the favoritism "debate" is not a debate. It is a harangue, a politically motivated, brilliantly publicized, fickle attack on progressive ideas. I'll talk a lot more about that later, but first let me finish my general thesis: I wouldn't judge his protégés too harshly. They're unmistakably just cannon fodder for The Political Gamer's plot to assail all that is holy.

As our society continues to unravel, more and more people will be grasping for straws, grasping for something to hold onto, grasping for something that promises to give them the sense of security and certainty that they so desperately need. These are the sorts of people The Political Gamer preys upon. I realize that some people may have trouble reading this letter. Granted, not everyone knows what "hippopotomonstrosesquipidelian" means, but it's nevertheless easy to understand that this is a fine example of what I've been talking about. It's that simple. I don't think it is a mere coincidence that The Political Gamer's confreres are ineducable. Nevertheless, I can state with absolute certainty that honest people will admit that The Political Gamer's theatrics are Lysenkoism redux. Concerned people are not afraid to address the legitimate anger, fear, and alienation of people who have been mobilized by The Political Gamer because they saw no other options for change. And sensible people know that if it were true, as The Political Gamer claims, that there won't be any blowback from his stirring up trouble, then I wouldn't be saying that I really feel that it needs to be taken into account that it's my understanding that to attack The Political Gamer's malice and hypocrisy, we have to work diligently and effectively to invigorate the effort to reach solutions by increasing the scope of the inquiry rather than by narrowing or abandoning it. But you knew that already. So let me add that for the nonce, The Political Gamer is content to encourage every sort of indiscipline and degeneracy in the name of freedom. But in the coming days, he will break up society's solidarity and cohesiveness.

One of the things I find quite interesting is listening to other people's takes on things. For instance, I recently overheard some folks remark that if we let The Political Gamer muddy the word "sphygmomanometric", then greed, corruption, and libertinism will characterize the government. Oppressive measures will be directed against citizens. And lies and deceit will be the stock-in-trade of the media and educational institutions. I have observed that those who disagree with me on the next point tend to be unsophisticated and those who recognize the validity of the point to be more educated. The point is that if we don't do something soon, The Political Gamer's insecure beliefs will rise like a golem with a million hands on a million throats to choke the honor out of decent, hardworking people. Is The Political Gamer's head really buried too deep in the sand to know that he should do some research next time before printing half-truths and misinformation? Many people consider that question irrelevant on the grounds that The Political Gamer will probably respond to this letter just like he responds to all criticism. He will put me down as "addlepated" or "pusillanimous". That's his standard answer to everyone who says or writes anything about him except the most fawning praise.

A few days ago, The Political Gamer actually admitted that he wants to sensationalize all of the issues. Can you believe that? Perhaps The Political Gamer forgot to take his antipsychotics that day. An additional clue is that it's easy for us to shake our heads at his foolishness and cowardice. It's easy for us to exclaim that we should take steps against the whole soporific brotherhood of effrontive libertines. It's easy for us to say, "The Political Gamer's view that the best way to reduce cognitive dissonance and restore homeostasis to one's psyche is to conceal information and, occasionally, blatantly lie is sheer make-believe." The point is that it's easy for us to say these things because we must soon make one of the most momentous decisions in history. We must decide whether to let The Political Gamer unleash carnage and barbarity or, alternatively, whether we should tell him where he can stick it. Upon this decision rests the stability of society and the future peace of the world. My view on this decision is that The Political Gamer is an opportunist. That is, he is an ideological chameleon, without any real morality, without a soul. As I have tried to show in this letter, The Political Gamer wouldn't be able to apotheosize dangerous, oppressive slubberdegullions if he were working on a level playing field. As long as you remember that, we may yet be able to hinder the power of pigheaded flag burners like The Political Gamer.

Things that... generate stuff. Those are generally cool.

But when they attempt to make me read 10 paragraphs of retarded ranting, they're not.

Well, they're well articulated. You could probably learn good english from these, gramattically and even learn a few words as well.

I'm adding "hippopotomonstrosesquipidelian" to my vocabulary thanks to this article. Even if the dictionary claims it as anything other than a real word.

Yes, it works!

This is to voice my dissatisfaction with Chairman Kaga's generalizations. The following text regards my complaints of recent days against Chairman Kaga and his subtle but boisterous attempts to weaken family ties. It's unquestionably a tragedy that his goal in life is apparently to dig a grave in which to bury liberty and freedom. Here, I use the word "tragedy" as the philosopher Whitehead used it. Whitehead stated that "the essence of dramatic tragedy is not unhappiness. It resides in the solemnity of the remorseless working of things," which I interpret as saying that only the impartial and unimpassioned mind will even consider that it's easy for Chairman Kaga to bombastically declaim my proposals. But when is he going to provide an alternative proposal of his own? You know the answer, don't you? You probably also know that he is like a giant octopus sprawling its slimy length over city, state, and nation. Like the octopus of real life, Chairman Kaga operates under cover of self-created screen. He seizes in his long and powerful tentacles our executive officers, our legislative bodies, our schools, our courts, our newspapers, and every agency created for the public protection.

You may make the comment, "What does this have to do with sleazy, supercilious Huns?" Well, once you begin to see the light you'll realize that Chairman Kaga claims that all major world powers are controlled by a covert group of "insiders". That claim illustrates a serious reasoning fallacy, one that is pandemic in his rejoinders. Then again, Chairman Kaga is controlling and demanding. As an interesting experiment, try to point this out to him. (You might want to don safety equipment first.) I think you'll find that Chairman Kaga wants to step on other people's toes. Such intolerance is felt by all people, from every background.

I'm merely suggesting that Chairman Kaga's most odious tactic is to fabricate a phony war between illaudable, obscene obnoxious-types and the most chthonic bloodsuckers you'll ever see. This way, he can subjugate both groups into helping him make human life negligible and cheap. I indeed don't want that to happen, which is why I'm telling you that there are two classes of people in this world. There are those who create a desolation and call it peace, and there are those who shelter initially unpopular truths from suppression, enabling them to ultimately win out through competition in the marketplace of ideas. Chairman Kaga fits neatly into the former category, of course. I'd like to finish with a quote from a private e-mail message sent to me by a close friend of mine: "Chairman Kaga has a driving need to institutionalize exhibitionism through systematic violence, distorted religion, and dubious science".

I am not a diplomat and, as such, I am not fully conversant with the elegant and rarefied language of the diplomatic trade. I have a reputation for saying what I mean and meaning what I say. So I trust that you'll forgive me if I come across as a bit blunt when I state that the world is so full of salacious slubberdegullions and intrusive beguilers that one need not seek them in a madhouse. Before I say anything else, let me remind Princess Stealing Dog, Ph.D. that I, hardheaded cynic that I am, want nothing more—or less—than to take the lemons that she's handing us and make lemonade. To that task I have consecrated my life and I invite you to do likewise. I deeply believe that it's within our grasp to break the spell of great expectations that now binds fatuous dipsomaniacs to Stealing. Be grateful for this first and last tidbit of comforting news. The rest of this letter will center around the way that it is pointless to fret about the damage already caused by her unruly expostulations. The past cannot be changed. We must cope with the present if we hope to affect our future and unveil the semiotic patterns that she utilizes to make individuals indifferent to the survival of their families.

We must focus on what unites rather than divides us. To do anything else, and I do mean anything else, is a complete waste of time. My usual response to Stealing's apologues is this: The whole issue of interventionism is far more complex than Stealing wants to admit. However, such a response is much too glib and perhaps a little humorless, so let me be more specific. Stealing's mercenaries suspect that Stealing's politics are good for the environment, human rights, and baby seals. This is precisely the non-equation that Stealing is trying to patch together. What she's missing, as usual, is that her strictures are becoming increasingly wily. They have already begun to overthrow all concepts of beauty and sublimity, of the noble and the good, and instead drag people down into the sphere of Stealing's own base nature. Now fast-forward a few years to a time in which they have enabled Stealing to increase people's stress and aggression. If you don't want such a time to come then help me respond to Stealing's homilies. Help me recognize and respect the opinions, practices, and behavior of others.

I hope that Stealing's anecdotes were intended as a joke, although they're not very funny if they were. Stealing wants to cure the evil of discrimination with more discrimination. Faugh. Does she really know anything about the opinions she claims to support? No, she doesn't. Just look at the bill of fare served up in recent movies and television programs and you will hardly be able to deny that she repeats the term "spinulosodenticulate" over and over again in everything she writes. Is this repetition part of some new drinking game, or is Stealing merely trying to confuse us into believing that skin color means more than skill, and gender is more impressive than genius? Well, once you begin to see the light, you'll realize that Stealing contends that science is merely a tool invented by the current elite to maintain power. Excuse me, but where exactly did this little factoid come from? Now that I've said what I had to say, I should remark that this letter may not endear me to some people. Indeed, it may even cost me a friend or two. However, friends do not let friends get trampled by mawkish vendors of resistentialism like Princess Stealing Dog, Ph.D.. The truth is the truth and we pay a steep price whenever we ignore it.

My Complaint About Mr. Late!
I'll get right to the point. My concern and outrage are not directed solely at Mr. Late, but at all those who seek to pull the levers of mercantalism and oil the gears of militarism. The first thing I want to bring up is that I admit I have a tendency to become a bit insensitive whenever I rebuke Mr. Late for trying to confuse, befuddle, and neutralize public opposition. While I am desirous of mending this tiny personality flaw, Mr. Late possesses no significant intellectual skills whatsoever and has no interest in erudition. Heck, he can't even spell or define "erudition", much less achieve it.

I've long thought it would be fun to try to explain to Mr. Late how there doesn't seem to be much we can do about this. For the most part, I'm just curious as to how deep Mr. Late will have to dig into his profanity thesaurus to formulate a response. You'd think that someone would have done something by now to thwart his plans to twist my words six ways for Sunday. Unfortunately, most people are quite happy to "go along to get along" and are rather reluctant to promote peace, prosperity, and quality of life, both here and abroad. It is imperative that we inform such people that I've tried to explain to Mr. Late's amateurish accomplices that Mr. Late prizes wealth and celebrity over and above decent morals and sound judgment. As could be expected, they were a bit slow on the uptake. I just couldn't get them to comprehend that whenever Mr. Late is blamed for conspiring to direct social activity toward philanthropic flimflam rather than toward the elimination of the basic deficiencies in the organization of our economic and cultural life, he blames his spokesmen. Doing so reinforces their passivity and obedience and increases their guilt, shame, terror, and conformity, thereby making them far more willing to help Mr. Late insult my intelligence.

Given what I know about money-grubbing hooligans, I can say with confidence that I must ask that Mr. Late's goombahs seek some structure in which the cacophony introduced by Mr. Late's harangues might be systematized, reconciled, and made rational. I know they'll never do that so here's an alternate proposal: They should, at the very least, back off and quit trying to inject his lethal poison into our children's minds and souls. Mr. Late has never satisfactorily proved his assertion that one can understand the elements of a scientific theory only by reference to the social condition and personal histories of the scientists involved. He has merely justified that assertion with the phrase, "Because I said so." His belief is that he should be free to reinforce the concept of collective guilt that is the root of all prejudice. Hey, Mr. Late! Satan just called; he wants his worldview back. There's no mystery about it, no more room for fairy tales, just the knowledge that we find among narrow and uneducated minds the belief that ethical responsibility is merely a trammel of earthbound mortals and should not be required of a demigod like him. This belief is due to a basic confusion that can be cleared up simply by stating that in a tacit concession of defeat, Mr. Late is now openly calling for the abridgment of various freedoms to accomplish coercively what his careless refrains have failed at.

If there's a rule, and Mr. Late keeps making exceptions to that rule, then what good is the rule? I mean, some people have indicated that Mr. Late thumbs his nose at some of the very things I treasure. I can neither confirm nor deny that statement, but I can say that I can't follow Mr. Late's pretzel logic. I do, however, know that knowledge is the key that unlocks the shackles of bondage. That's why it's important for you to know that Mr. Late should clarify his point so people like you and me can tell what the heck he's talking about. Without clarification, Mr. Late's mottos sound lofty and include some emotionally charged words but don't really seem to make any sense.

For heaven's sake, if Mr. Late can't cite the basis for his claim that he is cunctipotent then he should just shut up about it. You know what I mean? He claims that he is a tireless protector of civil rights and civil liberties for all people. Predictably, he cites no hard data for that claim. This is because no such data exist.

Mr. Late's methods of interpretation are a conduit that funnels disagreeable thoughts into the heads of supercilious anarchists of various stripes. Let me rephrase that: Aberrant opportunism is widespread and growing stronger as it permeates school systems, universities, and the media. The best example of this, culled from many, would have to be the time Mr. Late tried to make a big deal out of nothing. He doesn't want to acknowledge that I, hardheaded cynic that I am, want to speak in the strongest possible terms against his machinations. In fact, Mr. Late would rather block all discussion on the subject. I suppose that's because there is more at play here than his purely political game of plaguing our minds. There are ideologies at work, hidden agendas to compromise the things that define us, including integrity, justice, love, and sharing.

Mr. Late makes it sound like all it takes to solve our social woes are shotgun marriages, heavy-handed divorce laws, and a return to some mythical 1950s Shangri-la. The evidence against that concept is so overwhelming, even an eight-year-old child can recognize it. Even so, I would never take a job working for Mr. Late. Given his inerudite ravings, who would want to? Though I don't doubt the depth of his sentiments, it's rather the form of his expressions that I find both cheeky and tendentious. I have no idea why Late wannabees have sprouted across the country like mushrooms after a downpour, which is another way of saying that I am more than merely surprised by Mr. Late's willingness to utilize legal, above-ground organizing in combination with illegal, underground tactics to identify political and religious groups that are his political enemies and re-label them as "cankered unsympathetic-types" in order to justify operations against them. I'm shocked, shocked. And, as if that weren't enough, we should agree on definitions before saying anything further about Mr. Late's sleazy fusillades. For starters, let's say that "oligarchism" is "that which makes Mr. Late yearn to undermine the intellectual purpose of higher education."

There are two main flaws with Mr. Late's expositions: 1) Mr. Late's hypocrisy has reached a new low, and 2) if you've read this far then you probably either agree with me or are on the way to agreeing with me. For many reasons, too many and too complex to go into here at this time, I must say that Mr. Late's incompetent, wrongheaded dupes like to shout, "Let's project a stream of callow images of death, sex, disaster, material goods, celebrities, and other fixtures in a mock-Olympian firmament. That'll be wonderful. Hooray, hooray!" But that won't be wonderful. Rather, it'll produce a large number of totally lecherous extravagancies, most self-indulgent indecencies, and, above all, the most goofy blasphemies against everything that I hold most sacred and most dear. As you can see, Mr. Late wants to break the mind and spirit, castrate the character, and kill the career of anyone whose ideas he deems to be snotty. Why he wants that, I don't know, but that's what he wants.

Viewed from all angles, Mr. Late deeply believes that he can bring about peace and prosperity for the whole of humanity through violence, deception, oppression, exploitation, graft, and theft. Meanwhile, back on Earth, the truth is very simple: It is easy to see faults in others. But it takes perseverance to search for solutions that are more creative and constructive than the typically high-handed ones championed by the worst kinds of shrewish perverts there are. Although he is trying to portray himself as a great philosopher on par with Wittgenstein or some such personage, Mr. Late uses his influence to restructure the social, political, and economic relationships that exist throughout our entire society. Mr. Late will almost certainly tiptoe around that glaringly evident fact because if he didn't, you might come to realize that I am sick of our illustrious "leaders" treading on eggshells so as not to upset Mr. Late. Here's what I have to say to them: I receive a great deal of correspondence from people all over the world. One of the things that impresses me about all of it is the massive number of people who realize that if you've read any of the malicious slop that Mr. Late has concocted, you'll sincerely recall Mr. Late's description of his plan to push our efforts two steps backward. If you haven't read any of it, well, all you really need to know is that our national media is controlled by the most horny savages you'll ever see. That's why you probably haven't heard that we must indubitably advance freedom in countries strangled by tyranny. Does that sound extremist? Is it too wanton for you? I'm sorry if it seems that way, but that's life.

It seems that no one else is telling you that Mr. Late must think that the world has no memory. So, since the burden lies with me to tell you that, I suppose I should say a few words on the subject. To begin with, we've all heard Mr. Late yammer and whine about how he's being scapegoated again, the poor dear. Will I allow him to reinforce the impression that pugnacious, belligerent vagrants—as opposed to Mr. Late's chums—are striving to brand me as unpleasant? As long as there is breath in my earthly body, I assure you I will not. What I will do, however, is inform as many people as possible that his allies believe that our only chance of saving the planet is to accept unending regulations and straightjacket "reforms" from his co-conspirators. Although it is perhaps impossible to change the perspective of those who have such beliefs, I wish nevertheless to criticize his complicity in the widespread establishment of cynicism. Be forewarned: Mr. Late's mind has limited horizons. It is confined to the immediate and simplistic, with the inevitable consequence that everything is made banal and basic and is then leveled down until it is deprived of all spiritual life. Okay, this letter has become much too long so I'll just jump right to the punchline: Mr. Late tries to make his ipse dixits more palatable by wrapping them in rhetoric about the need to protect the interests of the disadvantaged and the downtrodden.

I don't like Mr. Late anymore. :O

I have two orders of business regarding TMP. The first thing I want to bring up is that it would be great if we could get the facts out in the hope that somebody will do something to solve the problem. Still, if we take a step, just a step, towards addressing the issue of demagogism, then maybe we can open people's eyes (including our own) to a vision of how to get us out of the hammerlock that TMP is holding us in. He is capable of only two things, namely whining and underhanded tricks. TMP thinks that the moon is made of green cheese. Of course, thinking so doesn't make it so. He wants to be the one who determines what information we have access to. Yet TMP is also a big proponent of a particularly inconsiderate form of narcissism. Do you see something wrong with that picture? What I see is that his imprecations always follow the same pattern. He puts the desired twist on the actual facts, ignores inconvenient facts, and invents as many new "facts" as necessary to convince us that his adversaries are aligned with very dark and malevolent fourth-dimensional aliens known as Draconians.

In the Old Testament, the Book of Kings relates how the priests of Baal were slain for deceiving the people. I'm not suggesting that there be any contemporary parallel involving TMP, but when people see goofy jokers behaving like goofy jokers they begin to realize that TMP has nothing but contempt for you, and you don't even know it. That's why I feel obligated to inform you that the term "idiot savant" comes to mind when thinking of him. Admittedly, that term applies only halfway to him, which is why I aver that as our society continues to unravel, more and more people will be grasping for straws, grasping for something to hold onto, grasping for something that promises to give them the sense of security and certainty that they so desperately need. These are the classes of people TMP preys upon. If you've read this far then you probably either agree with me or are on the way to agreeing with me. If we take TMP's programs of Gleichschaltung to their logical conclusion, we see that in the near future, TMP will create a new fundamentalism based not on religion but on an orthodoxy of immoralism.

The things TMP wants to do are unfair, if not illegal. If you don't believe me, see for yourself. I don't think it would be unfair to say that any day now, he will pull out all stops in his filthy drive to replace discourse and open dialogue with scornful smears and blatant ugliness. This position, in large part, parallels civil libertarianism but with particular emphasis on the fact that he says it is within his legal right to erode constitutional principles that have shaped our society and remain at the core of our freedom and liberty. Whether or not he indeed has such a right, TMP parrots whatever ideas are fashionable at the moment. When the fashions change, his ideas will change instantly like a weathercock. In closing, although this letter has been lengthy there are still a large number of comments about TMP that I have had to leave aside. I didn't even begin to mention, for instance, that the whole thrust of his philippics bothers me. Anyway, the important point is that my only goal in writing this letter and others concerning TMP is to ensure that TMP receives his just deserts.

Hey look. It kind of actually works.
