It’s been a while since we’ve posted a video from Molotov Mitchell of WorldNetDaily. He’s a sad attempt at right-wing humor and “biting” commentary, which fails for all the reasons right-wing “comedians” and commentators always fail, and honestly, unless you really go looking for his work, you’re not going to just run across it. As with all right-wing attempts at being cool, what comes across is a sad, weakling of a man who is so frightened of the world around him that he simply spews hatred at all the people who are smarter than he is. He believes he has gay friends, like so many bigots do. “I have a black friend! I have a gay friend!,” they are known to say. In reality, it’s usually that there’s a gay person or a person of color who lives in their neighborhood, and who tolerates the right-wing idiot in their midst, while making fun of them behind their backs. He expressed support for the Ugandan “Kill the Gays” bill, of course claiming, like so many stupid right-wingers, that it wasn’t about killing gay people, except for the times he pretty much advocated for genocide.
Anyway, Porno Pete is excited about Molotov’s new video where he goes after Dan Savage for saying mean things. I’m not going to defend every single thing Dan has ever said — Dan doesn’t even defend every single thing he’s ever said — but I will point out that while there are those on the side of fairness and humanity who are lit fuses and sometimes pop off, we are actually fighting for good. This is in direct opposition to fundamentalist religious bigots who tend to value “civility” in discourse, all while advocating, for instance, for non-existent policies on teen bullying and promulgating hateful messages which lead to kids taking their own lives. I’ll side with the people who actually fight for good, with a liberal use of the word “f*ck,” thank you.
Moreover, Molotov claims that Dan has bragged about “cheating” on his spouse. Um, no. Dan has explained the arrangement of his marriage many times, and all literate people are free to look that up. But as Dan and Terry’s arrangement is “consensual,” it wins the moral contest over the Fundamentalist Christian version of open marriages, which tends to involve a lot of lying and closet homosexuality.
In this video about Dan Savage, Molotov also expresses his adoration for Rick Santorum, which makes sense, as overgrown WATB child-men with bizarre fixations on gay sex tend to flock together.
Hey Molotov? Actually, a majority of Americans support marriage equality. I know you simply can’t get your small head around that fact, but it’s true. You’ve lost.
Porno Pete adds:
If you haven’t seen Molotov’s previous video “My Gay Friends,” please watch this YouTube of it as well. It is compassionate yet honest Christianity in action and I believe the finest short video ever produced on this H. issue.
The video he’s talking about was universally reviled by gay people. But I will agree that it’s a good example of Porno Pete’s perverted version of Christian love in action. If you want to see it, click on Molotov’s name above and do some scrolling.
I have some advice for Moloto, your trying way to hard to be hip and cool and your failing miserably. Plus I went and watched the gay friend video. I call bs on this story and I do not believe he has any gay friends.
It always amazes me how people who are uberpartisan, especially uberpartisan on the right (there is no left any more) will distort anything & say anything to denigrate their opponents, rather than actually dealing with facts. I think that anger and fear are the root drivers for much of this (christian in amerika) “love”, but these outpourings of emotional energy are really analogous to very constipated people having a big dump and getting some temporary relief. I hope Molotov feels better now.
I can relate. Sometimes I just have to rant at them myself. At least my rantings tend to be based on facts.
What is “WATB”?
Nevermind, Urban Dictionary answered it for me.
Goodness! Who is this irritating and condescending human being. He is emphasizing stereotypes without actually offering any decent arguments about his subject.
I just googled a little investigation of Molotov. He is represented by “CMG” Booking. Here is what they say about themselves:
Why Use CMG Booking?
One Stop Shop: CMG Booking presents a growing catalog of the most prestigious and prolific Catholic speakers in the country.
You know, people like Newt Gingrich, Rick Santorum, Scalia & Thomas, Sam Brownback, Bill Donahue, his bishopric Timothy Dolan and Randall Terry to name a few of the potential “Catholic speakers” who would love to give us an earful. For enough money they could probably get the Koch brothers or Tom Monaghan to let us in on how the holy mother made them rich as well. No wonder Molotov is so inordinately fond of his fellow Santorum, he’s of the same religious party.
It was sort of the feeling I got when Fox news tried to do their own version of the daily news called (I think) “the half hour news hour”, just sad…
I noticed the name of the production company is Illuminati. In the world of conspiracy theorists, isn’t this the group of Enlightenment thinkers who want to destroy the RC church? Not too swift of them to pick that name. Besides, Darkinatti would be more appropriate, or Stupidnatti.
Was that meant to be funny, or satirical, or cool?
Fail.
Wow! I felt like I just went back in time to the Inquisition period, but with 1990′s ‘music’. It shouldn’t surprise anyone that people living in the past come across as stupid and irrelevant. Sad.
BRO! KEN! RECORD!!!
(You do the parody, kids.)
If everything he’s saying here were actually true, it might be a reasonable point to be making. I have heard of some (not all) of the incidents before, though, and it seems to me like he’s taken phrases wildly out of context (besides the obvious exaggeration and flawed premises). Hmm, why is it that some people, when mocking and criticizing those they disagree with, splice in audio and/or video so we can hear them say those ridiculous things themselves (see: Stewart, Colbert, for example) … and others just quote three or four words and then give several sentences of explanation for what those few words were intended to mean?
