Cultural Cesspools

 By 2055 there is a possibility that the USA will be Godless and Gunless nation. The two things the Conservatives think what America is supposed to be about and make it great, It will not be the liberals that make this happen. But the MAGAGOP NRA Evangelicals themselves that bring this about.

None of their Christian Nationalism is bringing people to Christ, fact is it is turning them away. A year into the Trump Presidency, Friendly Atheist had an article about how less Christians are "sharing the gospel". Because NO ONE wants to hear about their religion. The one that is separating families at the border, taking away women's reproductive rights, attacking vulnerable groups while protecting abusers in their own ranks and flooding them with a barrage of lies they cannot escape. 

Why would I or any sane person want to be any part of that? It is all because these places have become cesspools infested with toxic people.

I read this blog and hear about the drama he put up with at the church he finally left and others who were pushed out by the fanatics and how now him and these others are now not conservative or Christian anymore. 

When the Fanatics take over the moderate sane people leave and the organization shrinks gets more toxic to the point that no new members want to join. Why join a church or any social organization that will just add more drama and stress to your life?

In 40 years Gun Culture went from being about mostly hunters and sport to the cult of SELF DEFENSE and MILITAS. Six Shooters and Lever Action Rifles got replaced by black taciticool rifles and prepping for some Mad Max scenario. Kids under the threat of school shootings and having to do lockdown drills are not going to embrace gun ownership.

Gun chuds come out and say "I teach my son to love guns and hunt" good for you while you do that ten others are not.

When people leave, it is NEVER their fault, no Satan pulled them away. It was video games that caused their son to quit sportsball and now will not be Captain Varsity. Not the fact he never had any talent or passion and was only there out of obligation because you made him do it and spent 80% of the time riding bench and the other 20% being target of abuse from adults.

Oh but it was Super Mario that pulled him away. Not the washed up high school hero who was his coach screaming at him or watching other dads get into fights with each other. 65'5 of kids in sports will burn out before 13. To quote Michael French of Retroblasting "Maybe the kids ran screaming to video games because you screwed up royal."

Trump is at some Evangelical Convention in Nashville rambling about baseball fields being replaced by "knocker fields". His rotting brain is probably trying to say soccer, because brown people are coming in and prefer that to Baseball, America's "past time".  Little League Participation has been in decline since 1995, I see it with the young new hires at my job, I can get into conservations with them about the video game Insurgency Sandstorm than any recent sports game that happened recently except for major events like the Super Bowl. If immigrants are changing our sports preference SO WHAT? 75 years ago the top three sports was Baseball, Boxing and Horse Racing. Now only one is a major attraction.

Seeing this cancer with pop culture fandoms, Madame Web recently tanked HARD at the box office. All the middle aged white fan boys are crying GO WOKE GO BROKE or M-SHE-U. I knew this film was going to brick when I first heard of it. Like that kid in the crappy sports ball league the film was done out of obligation. Sony made it to keep the movie rights from reverting back to Disney/Marvel and used a Z List character that only exists in Spiderman comics to drive the plot forward, not a character that is suitable to lead a feature. Madame Web is a plot device in the comics not a leading character.

Studio hired a director who did TV shows and never had any feature film experience and no surprise this entire film looked like it belonged as CW TV Movie or straight to a streaming service.

Script was written by two people who wrote other box office turds like Gods of Egypt and Dracula Untold. There is now rumors that Chat GPT helped write this movie as well. 

ADR for the main antagonist was so terrible that his speech did not synch with this lips and looked like a badly dubbed over Anime Character. Then the Editing at parts was amateur at best making many of the scenes disjointed. This mess then caused Dakota Johnston to fire her talent agent over this film and her performance had as much passion as that kid stuck in a sport he does not want to be in, looks of it other people working on  that film same lack of interest.

Madame Web failed because it was a GARBAGE movie, not because it refused to cater to the "real fans" these REAL fans forget that the MCU was a box office juggernaut because it appealed to the casual movie goer who does not have a Masters Degree in Super Hero Studies from a State University. Casual movie goers only care about the A list Super Heroes not a film about some D List Side Character they barely know about. They will go to see a Superman Film, not some lower budget film about Jimmy Olsen. Super Hero Fatigue is real, it is from the casuals getting fatigued over the steady stream of garbage. Trump MAGA Fatigue is also real despite these polls saying Trump is leading people are getting tired of the constant ramblings and constant drama. Like the Westerns they got so bad that every one will want them GONE. None of these things can keep going on like this.

Outside forces are not destroying these things, they are collapsing from the rot that is happening on the inside. .

Little Rambos (GI JOKE part 1)

Yooo, Joe!

He'll fight for freedom!
Wherever there's trouble
G.I. Joe is there!

G.I. Joe (A Real American Hero)
G.I. Joe is there!

It's G.I. Joe against Cobra the enemy
Fighting to save the day!
He never gives up!
He's always there!
Fighting for freedom over land and air!

G.I. Joe (A Real American Hero)
G.I. Joe is there!

"G.I. Joe is the code name for America's daring highly
Trained special mission force. It's purpose: to defend
Human freedom against Cobra, a ruthless terrorist
Organization determined to rule the world!"

He never gives up!
He'll stay til the fight's won!
G.I. Joe will dare!

Saw this a few weeks ago, the "hero" of Kenosha Kyle Rittenhouse dressed up in Tacticool Gear talking about a hard day of field training while still having an airsoft costume clean as it came off the rack.

I did real field training when I was in the MIARNG for 6 years, wo got dirty AF out in the field, and shooting in an indoor range is not FIELD TRAINING according to another person commenting on his twitter. BTW if you want to save from brain cells you not even go to that twitter posting.

I have a word for these people, GI JOKES, the 2A Militia movement is made up of nothing but them. People who either never served or if they were former military did less fuck all than I did. Left feeling like they were denied their destined glory.

Kyle's twitter feed there was one chud claiming you can get better small arms training in the civilian sector than the military because you an do it when you want to not when they want you to.

NO SHIT, in the military you do the training of what your MOS is, unless you are 11B or some other frontline combat arms you are going to do basic marksmanship with a busted ass M16 just to qualify. Same chud cried about lack of small arms training in the NAVY. It is the FUCKING NAVY, they work on ships, you are likely as a sailor will be maintaining aircraft, ship systems, sitting at a radar screen, or swabbing decks.

Unless you are SOCOM NAVY SEALS you will not be playing with M16s all that much. Fact is one of the hardest and toughest training programs in the United States Navy is not the SEALs, its Nuclear Power School. It requires one to have high ASVAB scores and pass a high security clearance and it is a very demanding academic program.

These MAGA run tactical gun schools are the bullshido McDojos of the gun world, likely getting meth heads to spend big money to learn and bunch of bullshit gun-fu that will likely get themselves killed. Just like the buckets of survival food Jim Bakker sells, The Con Man selling this crap knows the mark is never going to use it. There was one such school on Twitter that was run by a 25 year old high school dropout (even brags about not getting that WOKE diploma) who has zero military experience. YT vids of him dancing around like a chipmunk on crack flagging everything with his muzzle, He was even getting clowned by other 2A MAGA Vets as he said things like "everyone gets flagged in war" while using Saving Private Ryan as a source.

 Then there was thus HURP A DURP of Medieval Armies "lived off the land" and the FOOD WAS BETTER BACK THEN, no it was not. I took two ancient history courses at EMU and in both of them, the professor said, "The Average Person Lived a day away from starving to death". One complained about CANNED JUNKS. Canned food came about because those OLD WAYS did not work. History Channel has the built America Series, one is the FOOD that built America and there are episodes about Heinz and his innovation of metal CANNED food, also how Frito Lay got contracts to feed troops in the world wars.

Today's CANNED JUNKS are still superior to even the best food that only the nobility had access too. Troops in the middle ages and see our food and think it is some sort of miracle.

There entire concept of war comes from playing Call of Duty and Medieval Fantasy Games and none of it is reality.

All these people are in their MAGA Civil War Fantasies (and their "plans" are just that fantasies) are MAIN CHARACTER Lone Wolf Bad asses taking on the LIBS or something. Little Rambos that are in for a shock because the true LORD OF WAR is not guns, and masculinity but LOGISTICS. Those troops need to be equipped and fed, and a bunch of randos with guns showing up are not an army but what any legit army calls a GAGGLE FUCK. Because 2A MAGA militia movement is all about the self, the lone warrior fantasy. Army for those who do not want to sign up, have to get deployed, take order and put there needs before someone or something else.

Look at Ukraine, RUSSIA is for the past 2 years trying to take Ukraine with WW2 mass armor tactics dripping with "Traditional Masculinity", Ukraine is putting whatever talent they can find from whomever has regardless of sex or gender. That They/Them Army for the past two years has turned Russian forces into was/were.  Outdated tactics are slamming head first into 21st century weapons.

A Civil War 2.0 will be a DIGITAL WAR, the MAGA FORCE is not the ones who are going to have anything DIGITAL, whatever military decide to abandon their posts to join up will not be high speed low drag or anyone with any really high level special skills. Lowest of the shit bags, likely those working in the supply shed bored AF because they are not getting their GLORY. Any veterans they have are those who served 25 years ago. You really think the SKUNK WORKS are going to side with TRUMP? Best they have is ELON MUSK, he is an investor who never invented anything, took over Twitter and ran that into the ground while spewing racist theories how Black Women cant fly planes or some shit. Well we have hard data proving that White South African  Emerald Mine Heirs cannot run a social media website, especially ones who want to spend most of their waking hours in a K-Hole.

If Kyle decides to pull the same crap again now wearing his tacticool gear, he will likely get himself killed or get arrested this time on FEDERAL CHARGES.. Oh and a federal judge is going going to let him play jury lotto games or give him hugs. One of their own last summer, had hordes of guns, shown off his tacitcool gear and was then neutralized by FBI tactical response team without them breaking a sweat.

Civil War 2.0 might start with them shooting everything up, thinking they are winning but will end with them hiding scared in their basement bunkers from all the drones and advanced weapon systems that get developed to hunt them down.  

The New Roaring 20s (Sign of the Beefcarver Fate II)

 

It is 2023, this is the roaring 20s of the 21st century, a where Anti-Abortion is the new prohibition and MAGA crazies with AR15s shooting up everything is the new Gangsters with Tommy Guns.

I am telling you right now, the Hammer is going to come down on all of this if the gun crowd does not get a grip. Oh and Prayer in Schools and all that assorted JesusCrap is not a solution. How did we get here to this point. It is easy Corporate Greed.

About 40 years ago hunting and sport shooting started to decline, now the GUN CULT would tell me "2A is not about hunting" they are right, but hunters and sport made up the bulk of gun sales and it was what dominated gun culture. Many reasons for the decline and its not because of liberal vegan animal rights and kids being indoctrinated against hunting by Bambi and Communist School Teachers or some other nonsense. 

One chud told me to 'GET A JOB" and buy a gun. I have a job I have the money. Not going to blow $600 on something that I will likely NEVER USE as even sport shooting is becoming impractical for me to get involved in anymore.

It is the result of a population becoming more urban and the sport becoming more expensive and inaccessible, then more and more places being turned into golf courses and resorts for wealthy corporate types. When you have a person in their 20s who is working two jobs and a side hustle can barely pay rent, buying a $1000 hunting rifle and then more on all the required gear is not going to happen let along get the days off needed to drive 200 miles away to hunt.

NRA and the gun makers had to find a new market so they started to push the Self Defense freedom against tyranny strategy. Then 9/11 happened and we got the Global War on Terror, then the entire culture went Spec Ops Tacticool. Boomers grew up with guns that were about hunting and westerns where it was six shooters and Winchesters. Its 2023 we had 20 years with kids being exposed to Call of Duty Modern Warfare, Battlefield, and Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six, Ghost Recon and countless others I cannot name.

Result we have a gun culture that has become toxic and running off the rails, and it is also a sign that Gun Culture any gun culture in the USA is actually going to die. End result of all of this carnage and insanity is we have two generations that could care less about guns and want tougher laws in 2028 they will be the biggest bloc of voters.

Response I get from gun cult is "but I teach my kids to shoot, they not gunna be soy boys" Congrats Good for you, well guess what? Most Dads are not like you anymore. Then there is the MAGA CIVIL WAR fantasies. They got all the guns and will win, but blame all these mass shootings on Democrats. 

Democrats at the same time "dont believe in guns" and are soy boys who are obsessed with pronouns. All they need is MACHO AND GUNS. Brag they have all the veterans. Oh Really? then maybe they can all get together and get the rest squared away so they can stop looking like obese soup sandwiches in all the gun-fu videos I see. You know the ones with them doing things with firearms that would get one kicked off a military range by the NCOIC.

I will tell you right now the veterans who saw combat, were on the front lines. Last thing they want is a return to that hell. Tells me they are all wannabes who never enlisted or were POG FOBBITS who did more fuck all than I did when I was in the MIARNG. All of this is just over compensation as they enlisted and for one reason or another, and never became the Rambo Super Commando they wanted. So must get the glory they feel was denied to them.

This Civil War 2.0 will be a digital war, its the MACHO AR15 boys against the THEY/THEM operating drones turning MAGAs into WAS/WERE. The preppers, and MAGA Militia Alpha Males were also the first to lose the script two weeks into a pandemic because there was no live sports on TV, but these people are so ready for Civil War 2 or some Mad Max collapse of civilization.

No matter how things go form here the AR15 Tacticool Cult is a the death rattle of Gun Culture in America, it has mutated into a monster that we as a people are going to forced to finally put down like a mad beast. It either dies from the ballot box, withers away as the gun cultists die and there is no youth wanting to inherit their guns or from government bullets.

It is always the same excuses from the gun cult.

- We took GOD out of schools.

  That same GOD that all in the Indian Boarding School Horror shows and was DGAF when his own     priests were molesting kids? I think he should not be allowed within 1000ft from any school.

- We took "Discipline" out of school.

  Code word for corporal punishment, teens are violent because adults are not violent towards them.     Makes sense if you are a crack head.

- Breakdown of the Nuclear Family.

 Of course this is where they blame feminism and women. BTW the real TRAD family was the EXTENDED FAMILY, that Nuclear model the GOP thinks is the holy ideal is a post WW2 industrial age invention. 

- Its Mental Health.

Then why not fund mental health services, oh you don't want to do that.

By the way, we had most of that crap in the 1920s, a century ago and there was gangsters running around with tommy guns. It is the guns stupid.

Other nations have these problems, yet no weekly mass shootings, then bring up the Swiss, yes they have liberal gun laws, also regulations with them. A gun purchases require permits, everyone has to do 2 years of military conscription and they take marksman ship and training very seriously. If something like this happens in their country the Swiss government will law down the law real quick.

It will be Gen Z that will pull us out of this mess, as they are the majority of the victims of gun violence not surprisingly support tougher gun laws including bans on AR15s, and now in a recent poll 88% of them support labor Unions, huge increase from my Gen X at 60%. Because all of the gun violence is also tied into the GOP allowing Corporate Capitalism and Greed to run amok unchecked. Throw in the ROE reversal and you have a perfect storm for the GOP.  In 2028 this group and millennials will be the majority of the electorate. GEN Z knows the GOP is not serious about this issue or any issue they find of importance and are voting accordingly. Just like the gangsters of the 1920s public finally got sick of the carnage.

The GOP is scared wants to raise the voting age the party offers them nothing, refuses to and will share the same fate as the Sign of the Beefcarver.
