why? because i question attempts to squeeze the littleton event and time person of the century votes into an ill-fitting, one-size-fits all framework of fascist racism? (which, btw, as you know, i do not in any way deny the existence of in general)

i quite agree with chuck miller's analysis, especially:

One thing seems certain: these are political acts. I think a more useful category is "political nihilism," though, especially since the ideological and political vocabulary of the perpetrators is so ill-defined....In this sense, one needs to look at the dominant political interests of a system designed to marginalize all expressions of difference and socialize normalcy through various means of institutionalized programming. The schools are the primary means of this....The violent reaction by school kids shows the utter viciousness of conformism
