This past week, Simon Critchley appeared on the Smiley & West radio show to discuss his newest from Verso, The Faith of the Faithless, in conversation with Cornel West and Tavis Smiley.
You bloody Englishmen
think you know everything. Well, here are few things you obviously don't know.
Joseph Smith was a thief, forger, fraudster and all around common criminal who
moved from state to state to stay ahead of the law. And they weren’t after him
for polygamy, that’s Mormon revisionist history. He and Brigham Young printed a
bunch of bad three dollar banks notes in Kirtland Ohio resulting in run on the Kirtland
anti-bank which had nowhere near enough deposits cover the notes they printed.
This event was instrumental in the economic crash of the 1840s.
In Indiana where the
governor made the mistake of not hanging the lot of them they only had enough
arable land to feed one fourth their number, so they harvested their neighbor’s
crops. I don’t know about England, but here we call that larceny.
In Utah on September
11, 1857, dressed as Indians, they murdered 120 men women and children and not
only blamed the Indians for it but tore down several monuments built by the
nearby town’s people and denied involvement for well over a hundred years. In Wickenburg
AZ, a stage coach was attacked by group dressed as Indians—more than likely
Mormons, and all were murdered. Again the monuments built by the town’s people
were repeatedly torn down. These events set the stage for the genocide of the
American Indians who were my ancestors, so they could steal the tribal lands,
which they have.
Further they funded
the movement in CA to take marriage rights away from gay and lesbian citizens and
have run gays of the BSA which they now control. They have practiced hate and discrimination against
black, brown, and gay people since their inception and still do so today.
Many of still practice
polygamy and are child molesters. Do not pretend you’ve never heard of Warren
Jeffs in West Texas. He isn’t unique—he’s just the tip of very ugly iceberg.
I suggest you stick
your opinions and your book defending these thieves, murderers, and apostates
up your Limey bunghole and take you sorry excuse for soul back to the deteriorating
island of which you crawled off.
