"I support your inalienable right to say really stupid, offensive shit."

Tony gets it.  Anthony Bourdain: "I support your inalienable right to say really stupid, offensive shit." - Hit & Run : Reason.com: "Interviewer Lisa Granatstein asked the host of CNN's Parts Unknown the not entirely accurate two-part question, "How about government getting involved in where and how we eat? Mayor Bill de Blasio called on New Yorkers to boycott Chick-fil-A given the owner's anti-LGBT views." 

...Responding to Granatstein's question, he said: 
Are we looking for nice people to run our companies? We're going to be looking pretty hard. I'm not going to go eat at that restaurant or I'm not going to patronize that business because I don't like what they institutionally support—I don't like the chairman of the board, I don't like who created the company, whatever.

In fact, I just like cold beer, and my standards rise and fall depending on access to cold beer."

"Being more modern and delusionally sophisticated we have financialized slavery and created something called jobs."

» On elevating humanity Early Retirement Extreme: "Work may be thought of as a form of self-expression. For instance, when I worked as a physicist, I considered the programs I wrote to simulate neutron stars and the papers I wrote about my understanding of the results a form of self-expression much in the same way a musician picks up a guitar. There’s also a lot of work which can not be considered as such. The Ancient Greeks thought that such work was slavery. Their solution was to own slaves. Being more modern and delusionally sophisticated we have financialized slavery and created something called jobs. While people can no longer be owned like slaves, jobs can certainly be bought, sold, and owned. And seeing how most people need jobs, it’s effectively the same thing, plus ca change…"
