Hunter S. Thompson

by NoahI wish so much that Hunter S. Thompson was still alive and writing today but, very sadly, his words still fit our current culture all too well. In fact, the Kingdom Of Fear has metastasized and grown exponentially.I also wouldn't mind seeing a truly left candidate dispense with the banality of pointless politeness and speak truth to power like he did, and do it from a debate stage live on prime time TV.

Or venom. Or both. Both for sure. People are saying this is the best they've ready by Thompson, who committed suicide in 2005 (and had his ashes fired out of a cannon), since they read his 1972 classic, Fear And Loathing On The Campaign Trail, which was all about the Democratic primaries.

We are required to unquestioningly praise the U.S. Military for keeping us free, and protecting us from the villains du jour, in spite of the fact that it is really nothing more than a band of merciless mercenaries, hired by Wall Street to rob, rape, and pillage the resources of other countries. Amerika is in the business of war…nay, is dedicated, heart and soul, to the manufacture, sale, and use of Weapons of Mass Destruction.
