Gonzo Thompsonism

Gonzo Thompsonism represents the ideology of famed journalist and author Hunter S. Thompson. Thompson was the creator the "Gonzo" style of Journalism, which involves recounting events form a first hand point of view in a stream of consciousness format. Unlike most forms of journalism, Gonzo makes no claims to be objective.

Personality and Behavior
Thompsonism can generally be seen either writing, ingesting large amounts of drugs and/or alcohol, or playing with guns; occasionally all three at once. He generally speaks in punchy, vivid imagery, which give off the impression of a man who's just slightly unhinged. Above all else, he fucking hates Richard Nixon.

Friends:

 * [[File:Narco-Progressivism.png]] Narco-Progressivism - "We had two bags of grass, seventy-five pellets of mescaline, five sheets of high powered blotter acid, a salt shaker half full of cocaine, and a whole galaxy of multi-colored uppers, downers, screamers, laughers... Not that we needed all that for the trip, but once you get locked into a serious drug collection, the tendency is to push it as far as you can."
 * [[File:GRights.png]] Gun Rights Advocacy "All political power comes from the barrel of either guns, pussy, or opium pipes, and people seem to like it that way."
 * [[File:Thar.png]] “Coming of age in a fascist police state will not be a barrel of fun for anybody, much less for people like me, who are not inclined to suffer Nazis gladly and feel only contempt for the cowardly flag-suckers who would gladly give up their outdated freedom to live for the mess of pottage they have been conned into believing will be freedom from fear.”
 * [[File:Synd.png]] “I believe the IWW was probably the last human concept in American politics”
 * [[File:Obj.png]] - Fountainhead is a damn good book.

Frenemies:

 * [[File:Subj.png]] Subjectivism - I sure as hell ani't saying there's no such thing as truth, but some times you need a little subjectivity to see things as they are.

Enemies:

 * [[File:Necon.png]] - "Anybody who thinks that 'it doesn't matter who's President' has never been Drafted and sent off to fight and die in a vicious, stupid war on the other side of the world"
 * [[File:NixonismF.png]] Nixonism - "If the right people had been in charge of Nixon's funeral, his casket would have been launched into one of those open-sewage canals that empty into the ocean just south of Los Angeles. He was a swine of a man and a jabbering dupe of a president. Nixon was so crooked that he needed servants to help him screw his pants on every morning. Even his funeral was illegal. He was queer in the deepest way. His body should have been burned in a trash bin."
