Here’s the deal: I tried my best to get into politics. I scratched and clawed my way through news articles, television/radio broadcasts, and books for nearly a year to refine my political acumen and I finally gave up.
Why? Because people are fucking stupid.
Nobody does research anymore. They fuel their confirmation bias by aligning themselves to a set of preestablished beliefs manufactured by whatever media outlet they subscribe to has elected to spew.
Why? Because people are fucking stupid.
So yeah, my buddy commented in our group chat about the abortion situation in Alabama/the Bahhhble Belt yesterday and I had no fucking clue what he was talking about (as I said, I’ve quarantined myself from the depths of divisive, sociopolitical discourse because people are fucking stupid).
For those keeping score, I won’t be narcissistically vomiting my take on the abortion issue here. I was given strict guidelines from CEO Joe regarding what I can/can’t blog about and—although I’m a God damn genius and always 100% right—politics was on that list. Also, I’m not a self righteous dickhead who thinks everyone needs to hear my opinion exclusively because I have Wifi access (I actually am though).
What I will talk about, however, is what I saw when I finally researched the situation on Google…
Instead of the top article concerning the facts of the actual story, the top article concerned Instagram model/social activist/human female, Emily Ratajkowski, posing nude in protest of the abortion bill passing.
For the record, I had no idea who this chick was but I guess she DOMINATES Instagram. I don’t know dude, I guess she’s hot. Not my type—meaning she’s above a 7—but to his their own…
Anyway, the real reason I bring that up is because it was probably the most prepostorous, self serving move of all time. So diabolical that I was given no other option but to respect it.
I mean, Emily Ratajkggjdu basically hit social justice warrior bingo: First, her caption demonized white males; second, it “empowered” a particular subdemographic; and third, she did nothing at all that could be considered governmentally constructive. It was just a master class in social media’ing.
Not to mention, she showed her tits, which since has inspired MILLIONS of likeminded progressives to like her photo and follow her page.
While the profoundly immoral sit idle as these injustices occur, it’s just refreshing to see there are still people out there who aren’t afraid to stand up for what’s right and actually do something.
Not all heroes wear capes; some wear nothing at all…
