Congratulations Religious Sycophant!

We don’t care what you think. The TV show MASH was not better than the movie MASH. The movie MASH was more artful, darker, funnier and smarter, and it knew when to stop. It also didn’t let Alan fucking Alda take any sort of creative control over the process, so there’s that feather in its cap as well.

But people are stupid. We all know it. And you know it all too well, which is why you’ll finally start laying brick on your church to the TV show MASH today. You’ll even be proud of what you’ve accomplished, and when people decry your efforts and tell you that you’re taking attention away from the much better MASH movie you’ll either ignore them or have them undone by the violence of your followers.

But we’ll still plot quietly to burn all you have made. We know you won’t listen to reason, but we won’t let you ruin the world. And so we will plot quietly in the shadows, gathering supplies and support and information, learning every detail of the fetid citadel which you are building. But for now we will not act. We know that this is not the time. We will simply watch as you build it higher and higher, brick by brick, stretching your dream to the sky. But one day soon you will be undone.

Congratulations Religious Sycophant!
