Oh these fools really don’t get it.
There is no hypocrisy here. But there is anger. And it ain’t no slice. I despise these assholes with a passion.
You don’t know what anger is until Caring Liberals decide to destroy your life for crimes that exist in their fevered imagination, to the point they they run organized slander campaigns against you so vile that it puts the lives of your children in danger. Gleefully they rooted for psychos to try and kill me, because I hurt their feelings once over a meaningless award.
For the last ten years at every turn, petty fucks tried to destroy my livelihood. For ten years they continued to spread nasty shit that they knew to be false, but they did it anyway, just out of spite because I believe wrong.
My continued success galled them. That’s not how this is supposed to work. I was supposed to roll over and cower and beg forgiveness for things I never did. But I refused.
Despite that, there is no doubt their cancel campaign has been effective in that it has cost me millions of dollars. There’s nothing quite like having thousands of total strangers reflexively hate you because everything they’ve ever been told about you is a lie. Super fun.
But my continued success pisses these assholes off, so it’s totally worth it.
For over ten years I tried to warn the few remaining honest people on the left where their reckless destruction of the social contract was going to lead us. Now, I simply no longer give a fuck if their hubris destroys them. I will toast marshmallows over your cremation fire.
I’m no hypocrite. Oh no. I’m far, far past that. I actively root for your utter destruction. I’ve moved into a zen state of watching you honorless dogs pave the road to hell. And I will sit back and gloat as you burn.
For you see, there is no hypocrisy, because I’m not canceling you. I’m merely watching and laughing and commenting upon the obvious, as the puppies you beat and abused until they turned into wolves inevitably devour you.

Okay, I'm gonna expound on this with a thread about my experiences with Hollywood, as limited as those may be. As a working novelist and red state American I'm like an outsider barbarian there.
First, I'm not exaggerating about them being illiterate, let me tell you a story-
Back when I was first getting started, Monster Hunter International had just blown up. I got contacted by my first movie producer. Nice guy. Had a made a bunch of movies I'd heard of in the 90s and early 2000s.
This guy actually read books. Little did I know just how odd that was at the time-
3- So this producer read MHI, loved it, showed it to his friend who was the #2 person at a major movie studio, who also read books. And he was literally like the only guy at the entire movie studio who actually READ BOOKS.
I wish I was exaggerating. I'm not.
The A-Z guide to anti-gun vulture talking points on Twitter-
A. Gun owners are never trained enough so are dangerous and shouldn't be armed at all.
B. Gun owners who do train are crazy psychos living out their wannabe fantasies itching to shoot someone.
C. Even though it takes orders of magnitude more effort to become marginally effective with martial arts than a gun, you are better off using martial arts and not having a gun.
D. *Real Men* use their hands. This is why your mom and grandma shouldn't have guns either.
E. Twitter randos who have never been punched in the face are experts on real life violence, and whatever you have personally experienced doesn't count.
Notice that there's nothing about the planet they are going to, the challenges they will face there, or what pertinent skills or knowledge any of these people possess to help the mission.
Just shallow shit.
Which is kind of the whole issue with all this in a nutshell.
If anybody did populate a colony ship this way, they deserve to die.
Like the student. She's Muslim. Okay. But WHAT is she a student of?
Gender studies? Get the fuck off my ship.
Spaceship engineering? Welcome aboard!
I'm a little biased toward accountants and novelists for obvious reasons, but what kind of novelist are we talking about?
Say we are going to nightmare hellscape planet populated with monsters set to the Doom Music soundtrack and the choices are me or John Scalzi. :D
I know, company whose stock has tanked over the last year, let's pick up and move our facility that's twice the size of Manhattan to some other place that's got a spare 25,000 acres where we can build hundreds of unique buildings with super intricate infrastructure.
BRILLIANT.
How fucking stupid is @KeithOlbermann?
I'm serious. There's got to be some kind of scientific measurement.
A couple years ago they invited one of the most respected editors in the business to be guest of honor, then revoked it because this Jewish single mom made them feel "unsafe" because they said she was responsible for every rando comment on a web forum her company owned.
Now their guest of honor is a huge cheer leader for Russian war crimes and literal fucking genocide, and they ain't saying shit. Because they can't upset the Chinese communists who are hosting them.
I've actually got a chapter In Defense of the Second Amendment where I break down this stupid shit. It's the southern states, each with a big blue city that hasn't elected a republican to office in generations, with some neighborhoods that are murder central.
Leftists love this bullshit.
Like Tennessee? Alabama? High murder rate.
Outside places like Memphis or Birmingham? Rates plummet.
Guess where all the red and blue parts are?
