Badassin’ the blogosphere
by Shuggy, 18 April 2008
In what he imagines to be irony, Marko Attila Hoare has responded in the following fashion:
“Perhaps that’s the solution ? We could have separate schools for the working class and for the middle class. And in the working-class schools, so as not to patronise the children, we could encourage them to swear, twock cars and make spelling mistakes.”
Does this guy know what I do for a living? With regards to the former, we already have this; as for the latter, they need no encouragement from me, I can assure you. But I digress…
“Thanks to Shuggy’s post, I’ve realised the error of my ways. I realise that if Geordies or Glaswegians spew vulgar abuse, mug old ladies and set fire to immigrants’ homes, they are just expressing their true, gritty, proletarian Northern culture.”
Notice the weaving going on here: spewing vulgar abuse, mugging old ladies and racist arson are part of a seamless garment in the hands of Mr Hoare - this being a man eminently qualified to take the measure of the untermensch. Anyway, all this reminds me of the kinda thing we see too much of in the media and especially in the blogosphere: these who think most of the word’s problems are attributable to the fact that no-one asked them to run it. If only they’d realise that there’s a good reason for this…

I wish I had a bottle
Right here in my dirty face to wear the scars
To show from where I came
We dont talk about love we only want to get drunk
And we are not allowed to spend
As we are told that this is the end

Knowledge is power.
A glass raised to working class autodidacts everywhere.

Thanks to Hakmao for reminding me — Jarvis Cocker — also a bad man for using a taboo word and that. Remember folks - ‘class politics always leads to moral relativism’ (tee hee).

Jarvis - another autodidact.
Jarvis or MAH — who would I rather have over for a couple of jars?

Fuck it — anyone who cheerleads for the continuation of capitalism and it’s attendent ideology is a genocidaire. A disgusting piece of shit. They should be killed. They should be hunted doon. They should be fucked over online on blogs and that.
Disgusting Hegelian idealist shitbags. Fuck them all.

“Notice the weaving going on here: spewing vulgar abuse, mugging old ladies and racist arson are part of a seamless garment in the hands of Mr Hoare…”
He always does that. It’s his sole debating tactic.
The arrogant oaf genuinely assumes we are simply too stupid to notice.
