MysticWicks endorsement: "I've always, always regarded the Discordians as being people who chose to be Discordians because they can't be arsed to actually do any work to develop a relationship with a specific deity, they were too wishy-washy to choose just one path, and they just want to be a mishmash of everything and not have to work at learning about rituals or traditions or any such thing as that."

Which is interesting, in that there's a parallel argument that if welfare is abolished, charity groups (widely assumed to be religiously based) will step in to cover.

Well, we had this before the modern welfare state.

That we went ahead and developed the modern welfare state anyway suggests that it was insufficient.  Or cultural Marxists convinced us to do it, one or the other.

I could really use some connective tissue between the Racism essay and everything else? It could tie in either to the larger theme of perception vs reality or The Revolution, or maybe off with the "don't be a dick" stuff?
