Dana Loesch Doesn't Mind Being Called A Murderer Because Only Lib Pussies Think Murder Is Bad





https://www.wonkette.com/dana-loesch-doesn-t-mind-being-called-a-murderer-and-wapo-doesn-t-mind-boosting-her


The Washington Post yesterday offered a fun profile of rightwing radio host Dana Loesch, advising readers that she has a real knack for upsetting liberals and stirring up controversy, and also that she's now poised to be the new boss of the talk-radio time slot that used to be held by Rush Limbaugh. And don't you go suggesting that the Post is basically normalizing fascism, because after all, the article does include some quotes from critics, who seem awed by her edginess, too. The rest is nothing more than fluffing Loesch as a "scourge of the left" and a "powerhouse conservative influencer" who is so much, much more than just the former face of NRA-TV, where she got a million bucks to make videos watched by a few thousand people each, if that many. In her post-NRA radio and wingnut media career, you see, Loesch is

being introduced to listeners who might know her only as a Second Amendment crusader, rather than the host who has been delving into myriad topics for years.


Apparently Loesch's ability to spout vile opinions on a wide variety of topics besides guns makes her some sort of wingnut polymath, and worth the sort of fawning profile you'd expect for some entertainer who didn't casually dismiss mass shootings as a mere media fixation or suggest patriotic Americans may need to shoot a whole bunch of enemies of America, many of whom probably read Wonkette.

We shouldn't be so harsh, though, since we learned one useful fact about Dana Loesch from the story: Her last name is pronounced "Lash," which is good to know, since we'd been trying to pronounce it as if it had an umlaut in it.

Empathy is weakness. Trolling and abuse and bullying and being cruel for cruelty’s sake makes you tough and should be admired. We are in a very dangerous place right now. Cause apparently about a third of the country buys into this toxic attitude,

When cruelty, dirty tricks, lying and cheating are highly valued traits.

We are living in a sociopath's dream world.

She is the same misanthrope who feel that American soliders deserved "cool points" for peeing on dead Taliban soldiers several years ago.

...on Twitter, send her pictures of squirrels -- she loathes them, stalks them obsessively... and worse. Worked for me!

and gun-nuttery.









I know some think Boebert has been channeling her inner-Palin but I think her goal is more Loesch than Palin.
