EDIT2: I was wrong again, it's just something vomited out of a complaint letter generator.

I hadn't seen this meme before either, and ended up on a wild goose chase out of curiosity.

Apparently "My inquiries, necessarily hasty and perfunctory as I write this article to meet a deadline" was written by American nazi Revilo Oliver (seems to be an obvious joke name, but who knows). The text with that exact phrase is associated with the title "the veiled prophet of doylestown"; the sourcing of the article has been mangled by his writing being circulated, xeroxed, and re-circulated over the years by modern nazis, so I don't know the real context or even the year of writing.

I don't know what that says about the generator, but I can see why someone would use his writing as a basis for an early program like that. It's the same idiotic tone, but with the phrases like "the Jew", "our race", "international communism", etc spliced out.

Even with phrasing replaced, the thing that's being said is basically a fascist screed. ("People who say they're trying to make things better are liars and The Enemy, who seek to corrupt Our Way.")

My money was going to be on "The Ameripol Thread" being replacing "Reddit", and the original text being of course posted on Reddit. It has that kind of character.

Lots of buzzwords, idioms, and emotion...

For someone to intentionally write speeches of this sort implies either high humor or extreme anti-social and psychotic tendencies. I approve of this level of humor... unless you have become a were-opossum, causing fear in the night, to which I would suggest some pick-axe therapy.

People got their risk assessment neurons rotten and replaced with game theory. Folks walk around like fat turkeys taunting the world to slaughter them.

I feel like there's a metaphor here somewhere.

Unrelatedly, mildly surprised to see the negative-lifespan America First Caucus didn't get any time in this thread.

Short version of the story is that two of the more, er, controversial House members were distributing materials including the above document, and it leaked to the press. The content was enough to get pretty broad condemnation (except for Rep. Gaetz, who tweeted his support). After initially digging in about it, now the lead Rep. is dropping it entirely.

You might want to edit your post then.

Also Revilo is just an Oliver backwards, in case anyone missed that.

I would have probably not-noticed if it were (Italian-American?) Oliver Revilo.

(But the big AmeriPol news today, is that The Simpsons have 'made' the singer Morrissey 'look' racist. Shame on you The Simpsons. I accuse the The Simpsons writers of picking a particularly low-hanging fruit!)
