I guess you have missed all of the news stories of "minor attracted persons" and adult men in drag, (minstrel show female characatures,) and still think that people in powerful places are holy or special in some way that nobody else can match.
Even when high profile monsters are being outed every day for involvement in child p0rn rings or soliciting from minors -or pimping minors to the rich and powerful elite and then never seeing "the client list" ever.
Dave isn't saying that "teachers are the cause of (his) problems"; but that there are monsters being ignored and moved up and along still to this day and in the most unwanted or unlikely places -like teacher's unions.
It must be hard to be so dim and incurious. Not ever seeing anything beneath the surface of your own thoughts.
With a nom de plume like "lance arrowood" I'd think that you'd at least know what irony looked like but I'd be wrong -oh, so wrong.
I love how you write this and also read Glem "Studmall" Greenwald, Queen of the teen scene here. Putinite putzes are the least self-aware people on earth.
I cold give two shits about "the other guy" be they Saddam Hussein, Qadafi, or any other "literally Hitler" boogeymen the US government wants me or you to labor on instead of the people responsible for firehosing money at the war machine.
Does the thought of dragging Europe and the West into a nuclear showdown give you a boner or something?
All politics is local. I don't really read Glenn much these days, he's kind of a drama queen. Smart, but a little too gleeful in reporting on the seamy underbelly of the fascist regime in all of it's glory.
Also, don't forget to go and fuck yourself on the way out. Thanks
You may get the creeps but it seems that many of the grown-ups don't or just look away and pretend. Citizens old enough to vote act like children who must do (and believe) as the authorities say because the candy is too hard to resist and the punishments for disobeying too frightening to contemplate.
Agreed. Strains of H.L. Mencken and Mark Twain are in his writing and his speech. His weekly co-host podcast with Matt Taibbi is an entertaining oasis of sanity, serenity, and sagacity.
Amen. What a perfect introduction to the scene. I feel close to agreeing with you, but not quite yet. Among the creepy creeps and fakers, I find some roses whose perfume reminds me of real life, 'before'. Perhaps for Halloween, we should don costumes of the things we see that you so perfectly describe. Can we scare them back, as if they look in the real mirror, like the evil Queen, or be the painting of Dorian Grey?
Well done! I wonder if having elections while everyone is still mesmerized by the fakeness and creepiness of people dressing as monsters is just another psychopathic taunt.
I think about this article all the time and come back to read it often. I don’t know how/when “creepy” was removed from my vocabulary but it is such a valuable label. Thank you for the timely reminder to trust that instinct.
Zappa used the word, "creep" a lot in his songs and media... and it is fitting to keep the word and it's derivatives alive for the next generation of freaks that will eventually erupt upon the US social scene when people finally get enough porridge.
I had several similar encounters growing up - an older cousin, a baseball coach, a traveling salesman, etc. Sometimes being dumb and oblivious can keep you out of trouble.
Your "radio" show on the Indictments and Kurt V with Matt had me wanting to sign up and support you. Hopefully these "radio shows" will lead to others to enjoy your brilliant thoughts and ideas. Good luck. You are very important to the culture and civilization. Why? Because somewhere out there in vastness is a young Lech Welesa (spelling?) or Jefferson or Gandi, or Gorbachev or Hayek or Voltaire. None were perfect or had it down pat everywhere but maybe with a lot of wisdom from the ages so well absorbed by you and a few others, some of these young will rise to the top or near and make a big difference someday in the world. They will have had inspiration and a solid foundation from you.
Your teacher was born 30 years too soon. He’d be the head of a teacher’s union now.
Fu asshole,yeah teachers are the cause of your problems
Wow, rush to the defense of pedos much?

I'm an isolationist myself, but I make a big exception for Putin-Bibi and their mindless pets like you.

Turkish delight is back in style.
Just discovered you and your sub stack and it’s glorious.
My God man... your writing is supernatural.

Another hint from those too smart to be caught...

Alternate title for this fine piece of work could be called Monster's Ball.
Virginia going all-in with the party of SB8 and Ravnsborg is creepy
Wow, I guess we all had creepy teachers. Mine was in shop class. Also a dentist. And, yes, this is the creepiest Halloween yet.
And this Mr. M. kept on teaching? Whoa.
Creepy as a gypsy that loves Putin? Now THAT is creepy.
The FUCK?
Brony... that's fucking fitting.
Tough times for Kirn - Likud/Putin pundits are having bad outcomes left and right!
