The Antisocial Socialist

Remember how I said that I didn't think anyone would post the story about a kid dying because he didn't have dental coverage to conservatism or libertarianism? I called it wrong. It's now been posted to both.

I was right that the response would be scary.

( actual asshat responses under the cut )

These people should all be cut off from the society that they, in their Randroid-Thatcherite-Reaganite 20-something-upper-middle-class sheltered existences, do not believe exists or affects them in any way, and be left to starve in the wilderness, if any remains after their ideological overlords have burned and pillaged every inch of our world. Beyond that, the only thing I can say is ( LOL Kantian nihilism! )

Besides that, I mostly wrote and painted today and was kind of productive. My head is going all weird, so I have bursts of inspiration in between long stretches of apathy. YAY.

zingerella: So, library porn.
sabotabby: That's really hot.

sabotabby mutters some comment about shagging in Robarts.


Robarts Library, a.k.a. Fort Book.

zingerella looks faintly nauseated.

sabotabby: I just heard it was a good place to pick up. [Sullenly] I wouldn't know. They never let me on the good floors.
zingerella: It's more like the setting for a BDSM porn. It's got cages, shit lighting...
sabotabby: Oppressive concrete...
zingerella: Can't you just see some dominatrix stalking through the stacks, forcing chinless grad students to read Kant?
sabotabby: You realize if I just post the words "Kant" and "porn" in my LJ I'll get about a million comments, don't you?
zingerella: There's just something about sex in a building that looks like a giant turkey. [Pause.] And I don't even like porn.

[Pause.]

sabotabby: Well, neither do I!
