His parents named him Robert Francis and more recently he converted to Latinoism by changed his name to “Beto” but he used to have a much more interesting name. Beto O’Rourke was part of a hacking group and used to post under the nickname “Psychedelic Warlord.” Even crazier, he apparently had fantasies of running over children with his car, which would certainly foreshadow his DUI crash and arrest.
Reuters did a profile on an early hacking group known as The Cult of the Dead Cow that featured none other than Beta O’Dork in their ranks. The exposé is real careful not to implicate O’Rourke in anything that could be prosecuted for today, but he and his hackers stole software and long distance service. One of the things members did, including O’Rourke, was maintain their own personal message boards that gave hacking instruction as well as messed up fiction pieces.
Posting under Psychedelic Warlord, O’Rourke wrote many interesting things. He had this thing forecasting his future interest in communism:
“To achieve a money-less society (or have a society where money is heavily de-emphasized) a lot of things would have to change, including government as we know it. This is where the anti-money group and the disciples of Anarchy meet. I fear we will always have a system of government, one way or another, so we would have to use other means other than totally toppling the government (I don’t think the masses would support such a radical move at this time),” O’Rourke.
Hey, at least wasn’t advocating a complete overthrow of the government. I’m pretty sure he’s evolved on that issue by now as he wants open boarders which will definitely cause the demise of the United States.
Then there was something in which O’Rourke claimed to have interviewed a Jewish neo-Nazi that is almost certainly fake. If this interview is not real, it’s basically O’Rourke saying how misunderstood Hitler was through a fictional character’s voice. You can read it here.
Finally there was this thing, which is billed as a work of fiction, but written in the first person:
“One day, as I was driving home from work, I noticed two children crossing the street. They were happy, happy to be free from their troubles…. This happiness was mine by right. I had earned it in my dream,” wrote O’Rourke.
Now wait for it…
“As I neared the young ones, I put all my weight on my right foot, keeping the accelerator pedal on the floor until I heard the crashing of the two children on the hood, and then the sharp cry of pain from one of the two. I was so fascinated for a moment, that when after I had stopped my vehicle, I just sat in a daze, sweet visions filling my head,” O’Rourke wrote.
If you recall in 1998 O’Rourke was hauling ass down the road, drunk as a skunk when he lost control of his vehicle. He crashed through the center divider and struck a pick-up truck. Witnesses say he tried to drive away from the scene but his car was too messed up. Police arrive and arrested him for drunk driving, but because his daddy was a local judge he managed to weasel out of it.
O’Rourke was a teenager when he wrote about mowing down children and a young adult when he actually plowed his car into someone. Clearly this was something on his bucket list that he was able to check off very early in life. He may be running for president to achieve his dream of cashless socialist society and maybe even t correct the record (according to him) on Hitler.
He was a furry hacker with death fantasies who called himself “Psychedelic Warlord.” Is there some reason why anyone is seriously considering making this kook the President of the Untied States. His ideas are garbage but somehow that’s not even the worst thing about this doofus.
