Real World Address
Only by Fire is Fascism Finished
Year upon year in Earth’s darker forests,
Heaped at the foot of the trees,
Dry drifts of wood rot and leaf fall increase
Which sunlight shall never seize.
The vampire by sunlight or stake.
The wolfman by silver in bone.
The demon by bell, book, and pentagram.
The fascist by fire alone.
The ash that descends in the September skies
Where the leapers swam down the stones?
Best answered by bombs from mid-heaven at prayer
With that fire which hollows the bones.
The vampire by sunlight or stake.
The wolfman by silver in bone.
The demon by bell, book, and pentagram.
The fascist by fire alone.
If their god decrees war, God’s war shall prevail.
His lessons are seared in His stone.
No dreams shall defer, nor wishes erase,
The answers that burn in the bone.
The vampire by sunlight or stake.
The wolfman by silver in bone.
The demon by bell, book, and pentagram.
The fascist by fire alone.
Only by Fire is Fascism Finished.
This Sin is demanded that Your Line may Live.
Only through Fire is Freedom Reborn.
Each generation pulls the Sword from the Stone.
— Van der Leun

I had forgotten about that one. Wow. They were way ahead of the curve.
BTW, How about a shout out to Cory “Sparticus” Booker:
“Look, civil rights is someplace to begin, but in the African American civil right community, another place to focus was to stop the lynching of African Americans. We do not talk enough about trans Americans, especially African American trans Americans and the incredibility high rates of murder now,” the New Jersey senator said.

You left out Cory “Sparticus” Booker’s Trans Moment:
“Look, civil rights is someplace to begin, but in the African American civil right community, another place to focus was to stop the lynching of African Americans. We do not talk enough about trans Americans, especially African American trans Americans and the incredibility high rates of murder now,” the New Jersey senator said.

I’m just wondering if we’re still allowed to laugh. Or do I have to lock the doors and shut the windows, lest some SJW walks by and exposes my lack of “woke.”
Years ago MPFC was all transgressive and liberal. Now, the same stuff is over the line for the truly woke liberal. Cleese is starting to sound like a sane moderate. Cat: eat your tail.
sorry about the double.
