No. Fucking. Way.

A while back I got taken in by a satirical hoax that a conservative celebrity known for making moronic statements about imaginary liberalism in popular culture wrote a bunch of racist shit about Star Trek. Well, that wasn't nearly as ridiculous as this non-hoax.

To put this in perspective for non-gamers, BioShock Infinite takes place in a dystopian utopia where modern conservative talking points and values are the only reality. Minorities are demonized and practically enslaved for the upper class's personal comfort and the cities are filled with racist and classist propaganda that is just a little more extreme than what you'll hear people say out loud on FOX News, but is clearly satirically psychotic in nature. And when I say "clearly" I mean to people who aren't idiots.

This is hilarious. I actually thought it was a hoax after looking at the overall ridiculousness of their Facebook image gallery, but the official page checks out. This has been a thing for half a year and has nearly 100,000 Facebook likes and the stories all range from boring as hell to slightly unintentionally humorous that somebody would give a shit like "Before Obamacare, Adolf Hitler Called it T-4 Program" (If a train runs on schedule, does that make it a Nazi too?). Unless they are really terrible at satire and that many people disagree with me, this is an actual thing.

"The founding fathers are seen as Gods and America has become a sort of fetishist religion."

That wouldn't be too much of a stretch for these people even now.

This is great. All the comedians and writers in the world taking pot-shots at these clowns needn't bother; they do an admirable job of making fools of themselves.

Did you check their Facebook image gallery? Dead god. No matter how dumb liberals are with trying to control people's behavior by whining about improper language or not enough minorities or too many minorities or the minorities aren't portrayed as being unlike minorities enough, this kind of shit beats them every time. How far up your ass does your head need to be to not recognize an image of George Washington battling insanely racist caricatures referred to as "the foreign hordes" in the modern era is not patting you on the back? Some of your best friends are black/Mexican/whatever, you say? I'm sure they are, buddy.

I was going to put this in another thread, but figured while Fox News gets a mention that it can sit in here alongside another example of baffling arrogance and stupidity.

So, yeah. Gandhi. Rosa Parks. Martin Luther King. Who gives a shit, right?

Staggering ignorance. Just fucking staggering.

Gandhi was obviously white? The INDIAN guy? God. Damn. It. This kind of destroys my view of FOX News. I always thought they were professional trolls who knew that they were spewing bullshit, but thought they were making people deliberately stupider for a higher purpose in the long run (money and power). But the bitch supposedly didn't even know she was being recorded when she said that. This means I was probably wrong. People this fucking unbelievably stupid really are being paid massive amounts of money just so that the maximum amount of people can hear what they have to say. This actually upsets me. I need to go watch God Bless America again.

The Duck Dynasty thing is kind of stupid, to be fair. People watch that show to see ignorant hicks act like ignorant hicks. I've never watched it, but that's the premise as I understand it. How do you get upset when one of them says something ingnorant and hickish? It' not like he said all gays must die. He just gave a simple opinion/observation conceived in a simple mind; exactly what people watch that garbage in the first place for.
