Those who do not agree must be destroyed

There are quite a few people out there who believe that Adam Yoshida isn't real, that he's just a clever parody of an ultra-extremist blogger, designed solely to serve some political point. If I'd only encountered him since he'd been blogging, it'd be easy to believe. However, with a record on Usenet that stretches back to 2000 and beyond, if he is a parody, then someone's been putting a lot of work into it for a long time. But, each time he puts fingers to keyboard, he makes me doubt my certainty:
In fact, in all honesty, I can’t think of a single reason why universal suffrage is a good idea...

Amnesty International and other disreputable organizations...

No one likes people on welfare anyways, and their few defenders are shrill and generally despised...
All this from a post where Adam tells us why certain people in America shouldn't be allowed to vote (and may well prove his point, but not in the way he intended). Of course, Adam's denied the vote because of the true capriciousness of fate - he's Canadian.
