83. What I was curious about
is whether anyone had ever heard that Gallo posted these things on his site in satire. No one has come up with *any* evidence that he is not dead serious. All the links I've pulled and posted from google seem to support his being absolutely serious, racist, right-wing, and just about completely insane. Steven Colbert is defintely someone that could be compared to Johnathan Swift, Colbert is a genius. But I know Colbert would be bothered if someone believed he was serious if he made bigoted remarks of any kind, because his public persona actively opposes that line of thinking. He's a comedian but he is an activist comedian whose existence is devoted to fighting the kind of philosophy that Gallo appears to have. Oranges and Apples.
