Civility Declared Dead



In a startlingly chilling episode best explained by David Neiwert's excellent series: Rush, Newspeak and Fascism: An exegesis, self-styled "anti-idiotarian" Emperor Misha I...the pseudonym for an anonymous blogger of the fascist bent..has put out nothing short of a cyber bounty of sorts against Eric A. Blumrich, replete with a map, and a "signed coffee mug" for a reward should one of his(?) minions find Mr. Blumrich's head on a pike. I'll not link to Auntie Idiot Aryan's site because he(?) doesn't need further rewards for his(?) misdeeds.

Here's a link to another's thoughts about the matter. Yeah, I know, it's an About.com agnosticism/atheism site, but of the four sites that I found that had commentary about this repugnant issue, it has the best synopsis.

I urge any and all readers to bookmark and read Neiwert's excellent Fascism series. It's in layman's term yet borrows much from scholarly texts.
