      It's like the ending of Cabin in the Woods The game-theoretic logic of spite If there's no room for me in the future, then the future's gotta go If I don't fit into the story, then the story ends here

      Yes, and Arthur, as you may distinctly recall I consider that an indefensibly evil, vile position and cordially invite it to fuck off and die.

      That is the selfish, venomous spite of a goddamn child, and if people had not, throughout their lives, placed the welfare of others before their own to *some* degree at critical moments, none of us would be here. So no, I don't particularly respect that. That is THE MAGA logic.

      pretty sure this isn't the maga logic; the maga logic is "this is a white christian country / brown people are scary and must be put in their place" a logic of dominance and hierarchy

      Yeah what do you think the reptile brain "I will smash everything if I don't get what I want?" is? And honestly, I see a LOT of this much vaunted spite in the whole "the cruelty is the point" phenomenon

      i dunno call me crazy but i'm not sure that fear of equality and rage at being made subordinate are the same emotion

      but "to those accustomed to privilege, equality feels like oppression" that doesn't mean it *is* oppression, but it does mean that they *feel* like something is being taken from them

      Yes, thank you. this is not about *justification*, this is about *impulse*. this is about the motivating fire, the origin of the desire to persecute in the first place.

      *shrug* Hatred is one of the core animating impulses of all human beings, a movement or organization that doesn't tap into it at all is one that's only half-alive Hate, as they say, is the other side of the coin we call love If you don't hate anyone you don't really love either

      Alexander Cockburn famously had as his litmus test question for interns he hired at Counterpunch, "Is your hate pure?" He told a story about asking this question to Ed Miliband and Miliband sputtering "I don't -- I've never hated anyone!"

      And said that in that moment it was obvious to him that New Labour would fail in all its goals, and obvious exactly how it would fail

          Yeah, honestly, I consider that all edgelord posturing to lionize people's giving in to their worst impulses because it makes them feel good.

          This is the exact same thing as the Green Lantern theory of politics; that which makes me feel good, which soothes my fury in the face of an unjust world and gives me a sense of moral purity and power, is automatically efficacious and good, not that which actually gets results.
