ANTI-HUMANISTS STAGE FINAL (?) RALLY
By Tom Malthus
Paris, 29 December 2005
Hundreds of thousands of so-called anti-humanists, many of them members
of End It All, a group devoted to ‘ending the folly, sickness, excesses,
and inherent stupidity’ of mankind, filled the Place de la Concorde, and
adjacent streets today, in preparation for a mass New Year’s Day ‘snuff
out,’ in which the group and its supporters will gather to commit mass
suicide ‘for the good of civilization.’
Workers from Doctors Without Borders, Mercy Corps, and the Ford
Foundation, could be seen throwing their name tags into piles of burning
medical supplies, blankets, food, and bottled water. Librarians braved
the smoke to add copies of the works of Homer, Sophocles, Shakespeare,
and Tom Clancy, to the flames.
‘The dupes who contribute money to these sicko organizations, and the
perverts who encourage our delinquent children to read so-called great
literature, deserve everything they get,’ said Michael (‘Big Dog’)
Badnarik, EIA spokesman, as he watched a blind Parisien try to make his
way around the bonfires. ‘I guess he couldn’t wait,’ he said, as the
blind man stumbled, then feel face down into the flames.
Members of the World Society for the Protection of Animals, the Humane
Society International, the International Society for Animal Rights,
Greenpeace, and PETA, chanted ‘Hey, hey, ho, ho! Kitty cats must go!’ as
they tossed live cats and dogs into the blaze.
Men and women wearing T-shirts with the slogan MY HONOR STUDENT IS NEXT!
stood on balconies and rooftops, as smoke and burning embers filled the
sky.
‘It’s about time we humans recognized that we are responsible for
everything, including us,’ said a young woman holding a sign that read
‘Who designed you?’
