Damn you, McCarthy! Your imaginary list of communists doomed us all!!

Dennis! There’s some lovely filth down 'ere!

Do you like cancer research? How about fighting forest fires? Averting mid-air plane collisions?

DOGE sure hates all of those.

I think we’re headed for balkanization. We’re seeing the breakup of the USSR all over again.

The eternal enemy of Dudes and Dudeism everywhere: Nihilists and Nihilism.

The Dude abides. ✌️

Much like the Dude himself, who is surrounded by people who are way too wound up in the world around him, you gotta remember. Sometimes, there’s a lot of weird ones, like sexy feminists who swing naked from ceilings to paint, or your whacked-out 'Nam vet buddy who’s just never moved on. And then there are assholes who piss on your rug, toe-severing German Nihilists, and rich old geezers who concoct kidnapping schemes to hide that he’s been stealing from impoverished kids. And, of course, fascists. Lots and lots of fascists.

Remember, the enemy of Dudeism is Nihilism. And fascists are, usually, either Nihilists, scammers, rug-pissers, or other zealots.
