It's amazing that our military struggles to meet recruitment quotas when we have so many maga males imagining themselves as fonts of testosterone with true Viking warrior impulses and skills. They're the ones who want a total disinhibition of the things their parents, Sunday School, catechism nuns, high school coaches and principals tried to teach them, and they're confident they found it in the churlish, narcissistic knucklehead, the icon of their he-man woman-hater juvenile clubhouse in a cave.

It's not surprising at all really, the flip side of a bully is a coward.

True that bullies are the poorest excuses for men. Chump most of all. Muskrat as well. I have known a couple of Asperger’s types, at different points on the spectrum. One was pretty realistic regarding his strengths and weaknesses, as were his parents. One was a total fool and had the poorest judgment of any man I knew. His parents were the same and had unrealistic views and pathetic judgment. both were smart men. Even though social judgment problems are common in this condition, I feel that some of the problems can be attributed to parents who don’t accept or try to overcompensate for the problems and challenges that the condition presents. I feel that Muskrat has a narcissistic personality disorder, totally separate from the Asperger’s syndrome.

As an Aspergian, let me assure you that Elmo Leon Muck is very definitely NOT an Aspergian. He's just a fuckwitted asshole - they're very common among the neurotypicals.

Although I don’t know his med history, nor do we know chumps, I couldn’t agree more. The most negative when both had potential to be the most positive. Best examples of the worst of humanity.

Self-righteousness breeds some real inhumane impulses.
