‘Mortality,’ by Christopher Hitchens - NYTimes.com

“For me,” he writes in “Mortality,” “to remember friendship is to recall those conversations that it seemed a sin to break off: the ones that made the sacrifice of the following day a trivial one.”

There are some people the world is worse off for having lost. Christopher Hitchens is at the forefront of that category.

I guess only white, male New Atheists are worse off for having lost Christopher Hitchens. As for the rest of us, it’s a relief to not have more hatred spewed at us or have a man recommend our genocide.

“At the forefront of that category” hahahahahhahahaahahahhahahahahahahaahahaha fuck no. 

Still am yet to meet fans of this asshole who aren’t white males. Christopher Hitchens was a nasty little man and the world is in no way worse off with him not around.

If you like Hitchens, I’m just going to assume you haven’t actually read anything he’s said in the last decade. How anyone with a conscience could support him blindly, I don’t know.
