Tony Arnold is the cryptonym under which internationally recognized science/travel writer and Tiki Misanthropologist Dr. Crabbe Rangoon publishes his creative fiction. Serving on renowned explorer Horst von Hesselbrut's last expedition, his subsequent endeavors included procurement journeys into Asia, the South Pacific and The Dark Continent. Distinguished as the Praetor Imprimitor of the Ordinis Orientalium Nasi Templum, he serves as the Intergalactic Attache for the Temple of Scientonomy. He is formally attached to the Ruling Council of The Spear of the Just and is Chancellor of the Ministry of Truth. He holds the Regent Chair of the Knights of the Eightfold Clover, and is an internet influencer. He's also a member of the Friends of the Library. Dr. Rangoon resides in a stilt home above the waters near Candor-on-Asperger, where he generates quaint music, writes and edits for the White Devil Press, frequents Chinese restaurants, and collects Oceanic artifacts, tobacco pipes, and exotic books.
About White Devil Press:
The descriptor "White Devil" has long been evocative of the evil exploiter of native peoples, intent only on subjugation, slavery, or thievery of one sort or another: and it’s as much of a myth as the noble savage. While no doubt some figures of preceding centuries did occasional harm, whether intentional or otherwise, this mischaracterization has been applied in recent manifestations of cancel "culture" to essentially apply to most historical male figures of Western Civilization, and even straight white males in general, by extension. And yet it takes only brief consideration to realize how profoundly yesterday's explorers, nautical merchants, mapmakers, bushwhackers, adventurers, traders of all sorts, and yes, even missionaries created the world as we know it today. Real men of daring and often fearless spirit who exerted their will and enlightened self-interest on the times they occupied. The hypocrisy of cancel "culture" is easily exemplified by vandals removing or destroying monuments to Capt. James Cook and other famous historical white men, all the while enjoying the internet, television, Coca-cola and blue jeans, etc. Therefore, we assert that the epithet now stands reappropriated as one of approbation, at least by those who shun hypocrisy, false propaganda, historic revisionism, race hatred, effeminacy, sniveling, humorlessness, and unmanly displays of all manner.
