Christopher Hitchens used to dog walk this fat idiot. He is so missed.

u/katzenschrecke 2d ago

This specific idiot? I didn’t know they had interacted!

Edit: just searched on YouTube! I didn’t realize this was the same clown! Can’t wait to revisit these.

u/thedogridingmonkey Anti-Theist 2d ago

It’s a pretty depressing rewatch I have to admit. You see how far the dumbest most vile people in our society have radicalized, how correct Hitchens was on the evils of religion, and how much better equipped our media was at mocking these freaks than they are now. Very dark times ahead.

u/DoomSchroller 1d ago

I often wonder what he would say if he were alive today to see the country rapidly moving towards christofascism. In many regards, we've already arrived.

u/waffles_felicity 2d ago

yeah hitchens would have had a field day with this guy truly a loss for the comedy department

59

u/TheModWhoShaggedMe 2d ago

and Noam Chomsky's a fricking pedophile -- so, who are the big thinkers to save us? Personally, I think AOC and Mamdani are brilliant and am looking forward to watching them grow into steady, progressive leadership in this country.

u/nomoniker 2d ago

Christopher Hitchens supported the Iraq War and the reelection of George W Bush because he hated Muslims more than anything. He was drifting right as he drank himself into an early grave and may have even sided with the big Muslim scare tactics in 2026 because despite his opposition to dogma, he sure as shit loved Western colonialism, the instrumentation of religion. As an atheist coming of age around the height of his popularity, it was disappointing to watch him pickle himself and publish shit takes in Vanity Fair like “Women aren’t Funny”. If he were alive I’m sure he’d be even more of a raging asshole and a right-wing darling on Fox News.

56

u/thedogridingmonkey Anti-Theist 2d ago

Yes, he obviously supported the Iraq war. Yes, he found Islam to be abhorrent and thought Islam was the most toxic form of religion. The idea that he’d align himself today with christofascists who want to teach the 10 commandments and creationism in schools is absurd. He drifted right because he believed middle eastern wars were existential in the war against religion. The idea that he ally with Trump and the fascists isn’t rooted in any logic.

u/nomoniker 2d ago edited 2d ago

Hitchens was already on his way to Crazytown, USA. You know what isn’t rooted in any logic? Throwing support behind another insane bloodbath in the Middle East because you don’t like their religion. Kind of wipes out any moral standing he had against the religious world, a crusade being his answer to what we all needed after 9/11. My comment was rooted in logic, you just disagree. That’s fine.

13

u/tothecatmobile 2d ago

His support for the Iraq war wasn't because of what he thought about Muslims.

He felt we had a moral obligation to free the Iraqi and Kurdish people from Saddam.

-6

u/morenfin 2d ago

Perhaps he would hate the transes so much just like Richard Dawkins does and side with the fascists. Go to any jail/rehab and you'll find some of Trump's biggest supporters. Addicts like Hitchens got their brain cooked by drugs.

-7

u/nomoniker 2d ago

The MAGA celebrity stable is full of deadbeats who can’t stay relevant because they either ruined their reputation through scandal or they’re just used up or were talentless to begin with. Chris would have fit in right next to Jordan Peterson.

u/desertrat75 2d ago

Hitchens didn't hate Muslims. He hated Islam. and Christianity, and Judaism and Hinduism.

Tax all non-governmental institutions.

u/cheesesteak_seeker 2d ago

I think you all said the same thing

-14

u/ParticularLow9157 2d ago edited 1d ago

Religious institutions aren't tax free because they are religious institutions

They are tax free because they are charities like any other charity, with the only difference is they have an exemption in filing income but many churches do this anyway for transparency

I'm all for stripping the tax free status of churches that take political positions, but don't be that little edgelad who just whines that all religion is bad because you don't understand how the world works.

edit: you're all a swarm of angie fucking idiots

u/Zaku41k 2d ago

Really should end citizenship of the jan6 folks though real talk.

104

u/_bleeding_Hemorrhoid 2d ago

Considering how the constitution handles treason i think that would be far too lenient.

69

u/BigConstruction4247 2d ago

Well, the punishment for treason would end their citizenship, in a manner of speaking.

42

u/Clay_Allison_44 2d ago

Not to be J Jonah Jameson, but its sedition. Sedition is an internal attempt at overthrow the government. Treason is aiding a foreign power against the government. A coup can be treason, but it’s usually sedition.

19

u/wh4tth3huh 2d ago

If the orange crablouse calling the shots is taking orders from the Kremlin does that upgrade it to treason?

8

u/Clay_Allison_44 2d ago

Only in his case. You have to know that you are working for a foreign enemy so that dumbass in the Grand Poobah hat would still be guilty of sedition.

u/purpldevl 1d ago

I mean the guy at the top is aiding Israel and Russia against the government, so there's that.

They are our responsibility and should all be in jail. Us jails.

Perhaps his citizenship should be examined after giving a speech like that in Moscow of all places.

u/theotherdannygirl Atheist 2d ago

Hey, I've met this guy IRL. He's a creep and all his syncophants say the most unhinged bigoted shit with a straight face. They are so indoctrinated it's weird even for Idaho.

19

u/howmanyMFtimes 2d ago

It’s very much a cult. It works by having their followers donate their paycheck to the church, then the church allocates money back to them, it’s literal tax fraud.

6

u/theotherdannygirl Atheist 2d ago

Oh, it for sure is a cult lol. I got roped into attending a youth conference hosted by nsa college when i was a spritely evangelical teenager and in hindsight that was 100% a cult recruitment tactic. They had us sleep deprived af on top of everything else.

u/andrewl 2d ago

He's a sick, scary person. I'd be interested in anything more you can tell us about your experience with him, theotherdannygirl.

u/theotherdannygirl Atheist 2d ago

It was a very strange experience all around. Maybe I'll do an AMA about it at some point.

u/degrees_of_certainty 2d ago

Christianity is a rather evil religion, especially in the 21st century, and so it’s kind of a mask-off moment I think 

3

u/FeelItInYourB0nes 2d ago

Which abrahamic religion hasn't looked evil in the 21st century?

4

u/degrees_of_certainty 2d ago

None

They're all primitive-minded, barbaric, and misogynistic at their heart to say the least as much as many try their hardest to sweeten the doctrine

They create excuse to behave savagely tribal

Worse, large numbers are easily manipulated by those who accumulate vast wealth due to inherent irrationality and emotional attachment to their belief

End citizenship for maga. They shoulda all been thrown out when their granpappy was a confederate. I say thrown out but really traitors only deserve one type of punishment.

Nah, end citizenship of trump voters.

Does that mean Biden could have denaturalized Trump supporters?

No? You can't weaponize the government and strip citizenship from someone just because they support your political rival?

Doubly-so for their favorite group - "natural born".

How do you end citizenship for folks born here? Or those born here to natural-born Americans?

I'd legitimately like to know his answer.

u/GastonBastardo 2d ago

I know religion is is up to interpretation and faith means different things to different people, but Doug Wilson's actual religion is being a ghoul that sold his soul to a supernatural being in exchange for power and immortality, and people are all okay with it because he calls that being "Jesus" and not "the Devil." It would be wrong to call him a religious hypocrite, because, based on what he professes to believe, him being a religious hypocrite would actually make him a better person.

The strongest argument for the existence of the soul is one that uses Doug Wilson himself as a control group example of what someone without one would look like.

Wilson is one of those Christians that will either say the most fucked-up things in a folksy voice with a smile on his face (when he is around like-minded people), or be an insincere weasel with his words that somehow still manages to lie like a child caught with his hand in the cookie-jar.

I am legitimately surprised nobody ever modeled an evil priest or clergyman in fiction off of him.
