Dear Stupid Assholes [View All]

[alcibiades_mystery]

Nobody on this board works closely with the strategists of the Obama campaign. Nobody. If somebody tells you that they do, they're lying. So, what conclusions can we draw from this?

Your stupid asshole posts about how the Obama campaign is terrible, FAILING, or pursuing the wrong strategy, and your posts begging that the course change, are posted in the wrong fucking place. Since nobody here has the power to change any of that, you are pissing in the wind. It turns out, moreover, that the winds against you.

What do people on this board have the power to do? get out the vote, phone bank, register people, canvas, talk to friends and neighbors. That's it. Period. The grunt work of the campaign. That's all the people on this board can do. What does it require to slog through that kind of work day and night. It takes enthusiasm. Period. That's what it takes. So, every time you dampen enthusiasm on these boards, you chip away at the only thing people can do. Every time you do so by "begging" for a different strategy, moreover, you hurt the one thing people CAN do by yelling that somebody (Lord knows who) should do something else. You are, in short, a stupid motherfucking asshole.

Now, of course, the stupid motherfucking assholes who pursue such nonsense will now pretend that this common sense post about what people can do is the equivalent of the Thought Police, or the Nazis, or that I am trying to "police their language," or some other such stupid motherfucking defense. I don't give a fuck what you say, really. You can gloom and doom here to your heart's content. I'm just telling you, and everybody else, that you are a stupid motherfucking asshole. Which you're free to be.
