40. If he still self-identifies with the right, he hasn't broken with them at all

"The old right" is just a bullshit way of saying "I'm still a piece of shit, but I want my bill to be separate from those other pieces of shit over there"

You can't claim to be someone interested in "serious research" and then tout your writing at National review, Weekly Standard, WSJ and Forbes; those rags are the weekly sun for people rich enough to hire people to buy groceries for them.

Fumento wants to "break" with the fuckwits? Then he needs to BREAK with them and get a worldview that doesn't center around how great it is to be a fucking sociopath. Until then, all he's doing is puffing himself up by pretending to be "better" than the other assholes he hangs out with.

Fuck him.
