Argh, my Senator! I can’t fathom what “thoughtful” research led to your vote for that that weasel, but he defended war crimes before you put him there, fired a lot of JAG officers, then went on to commit war crimes. You couldn’t just say “no, I wouldn’t vote for him”? I thought you had some spine

My Senator, if y’all knew very well what you were electing, then I know very well that y’all are responsible for some very, VERY bad things. Cutting USAID - how many dead children? Killing fishermen instead of arresting. Murdering survivors at sea. Trying to feed Ukraine to Russia. Go home, fool.

Spoken up. I should have spoken up then and it’s bothered me ever since.

One more thing: when someone as important to the company says things like “ragheads” in front of Mustafa or “I’m a klukker” in front of a black co-worker AND their family and you don’t feel like you can push back on them, it sinks into you and doesn’t go away - that feeling that you should have…

was flawed. He disappointed me and it was cathartic to share it. It was really selfish and perhaps petty of me.

I told the story because I idolized him for more than 10 years before I met him. When I met him, I was repulsed by his words and what they told me about him. I held on to that for a long time and let it spill out today.
The point of telling the story was to put it out there that this icon …

…experienced his personality. It’s been bugging me ever since and this became a way to relieve the internal pressure of that. I probably should have just kept it to myself, but I felt compelled to out that my hero had feet of clay. I hope it doesn’t trouble you.

Hmmm. It’s probably pointless and I apologize if it’s offensive. The original post just mentioned the Venezuelan strikes as being like a Clancy novel. Clancy did kick off a genre of geopolitical techno-thrillers and his first book was pretty darned good. I was a big fan until I met him and ….

The straight up quote was in response to a discussion about (I think) Force 21. He started off by saying “Listen, I like blowing away ragheads as much as the next guy, but…”. I don’t remember what came after the but. The game wound up being about US vs Chinese forces.

I’ve been wanting to shout about this for a while, and apparently it’s coming out in a random Bluesky thread.
Fuck Tom Clancy and all his racist asshole ilk. He was one of those guys who abandons his wife when he gets a little success. Thanks for hearing my rant.

He pulled the shirt over his face and said over the mike, “look at me, I’m a klukker!”
That means “member of the KKK”. This was in North Carolina. The lead artist on our main project was Eric, a black man with lots of talent who had brought his wife and wonderful young children 2/3
