Yes, there is certainly a hilarious aspect to his rantings...there always is until someone who thinks that way finds themselves in a position of power...then it becomes something else entirely! The biggest lesson I learned from my years in the Civil Rights Movement was if you sit back quietly and don't challenge the rhetoric of hate...you are in fact supporting the evil and allowing it to grow! In SDS we had a slogan (ok, we had many but this one is pertinent)..."you are either part of the problem or part of the solution". That became bastardized to legitimize the bombing of physics buildings but the core principle is correct!
