Anyone Free Next Tuesday for a Revolution?
I have some time between a Teams Meeting and carpool duty.
So, President Dump put out a message on his shitty platform that uses the word “truth” unironically about protests. He announced that universities and colleges would lose all their federal funding if they allow “illegal protests.” He went on to say that “Agitators” would be imprisoned or sent back to their country of origin. (Side note, there’s no fucking way Dump knows the word “agitators”. He also never says “thank you.” I want to know who the real author is. Elon, that you?)
So, I’m going to need the Administration to explain this to me like I’m a five-year-old. Let’s start with the January 6th traitors. Yeah, I call them traitors. You can’t storm the Capitol of your country because you’ve got big feelings about an election your cult leader didn’t win and NOT be called a traitor. I’m still pissed off that the media never got behind that kind of language. Maybe if they had, more Americans would have seen how serious this event really was.
Was January 6 a protest on a college campus where some girl with a nose ring screamed into a bullhorn while a guy banged on a drum? Is holding up signs that call your Supreme Leader a “fuckwit” illegal? Is chanting some sort of “Hell no, we won’t go” kind of thing specifically modified for these particular End Times illegal? No. But breaking down the doors of the Capitol building, assaulting police officers, and taking a shit on Nancy Pelosi’s desk is illegal. And yet, Dump calls these fools “patriots.”
