Election Day -67

11 Days until the Inauguration on January 20, 2021

Now we are starting to see some action, and some reversing of positions. I love the Republican conservative Congressman who wants to talk about moving on and bringing the country together. Yeah, right. How about one of the four dead who put his taser between his legs so he could climb up and take Tip O’Neil’s picture off the wall? He ended up tasing himself in the nuts, his muscles clamped up causing his taser to continue to go off. He had a heart attack and died. Hey, is that a legal form of execution under the Bill Barr Justice Department guidelines?

Other strange things, we saw that guy with the buffalo head costume on, right? I got an explanation as to what that’s about. I don’t know if I fully understand or believe this but here goes. Apparently, there’s some kind of fantasy game you can play in the real world. (Hum, wait a minute. That doesn’t sound so odd. Well, I think I see people doing that to one degree or another all the time. Go on…) Yeah, so apparently you can be a “player” in this game interacting with the real world. Remember those people who did little editorials about how all the different things on your night stand (clock, radio, light, etc.) melded into one? Or how all the stuff on your desk melded into your phone? Yeah, well recently I have seen ads for Oculus Rift. That’s the 3D AI alternate reality life/game glasses. Just slip them on and you are in a Star Wars type world fighting Klingons or something. Or what about reality TV? The Bachelor. Or shows about other people’s lives? Alaska Gold Rush? 

Well what if all those mediums and content melded into an interactive scenario in the real world?

In a weird way this may help answer the question I have had about Satan and Rudy and Don Jr. when they were exhorting the crowd to go down to the Capital. I kept asking myself, “What did they expect?” What did they expect was going to happen? With Oculus Rift glasses you can take off the glasses, like the person does at the end of the ad and you can saw, “whoa.” When you are interacting with reality there are no glasses to take off. I guess that’s the lesson for the guy who fried his nuts and himself to death. Shocking. (I know. That’s terrible.)

So now the hunt begins. The guy holding Nancy Pelosi’s lecturn? Arrested.  I’m thinking 20 years in jail will wipe that shit eating grin off that fella’s face. Oh I can hear the plea now. He’s a dad. He was just funnin’ He didn’t think he was doing anything that wrong.

The guy with his feet up on her desk? Arrested. He’s apparently well known in the conspiracy activist circles.

How about the guy with the “Camp Auschwitz” sweatshirt on? Below that were the words translated from the German that were above the gate of that concentration death camp. Or the emblazoned shirts that had the code characters that translated “6 million was not enough”? Referring to the six million Jews who died at Hitler’s hands. Were these folks there for fun?

Or what about the fella jumping over the railing in the chamber with all those zipties coming out from his left sleeve. Was his intention to have a fun time?

One of the things Timothy Snyder wrote about in his book On Tyranny was the use of symbols and to abscond their meaning for other purposes. The use of the “Don’t Tread on Me” motif, the American flag and it’s many variants, The guy dressed up like a Minute Man etc. All to suggest that somehow what they were doing was a noble patriotic cause. It wasn’t. 

And now we are seeing some reality setting in as to what they did. Would you call taking down the flag of the United States over the Capital Building to raise the Trump flag a patriotic gesture? Oh gee, you didn’t mean anything by it? You were just, you know (nod nod, wink wink). No, regardless of what you were thinking the action is symbolic and seditious. Twenty years.

The machinery of disinformation must be disassembled. Look up “right wing media” and you’ll see a long list of disinformation sites, magazines, and media outlets. Don’t tell me about Freedom of Speech. This isn’t what they are about. Don’t tell me, “Well, everyone is entitled to their opinion.” Is that what the president, Rudy, and Don Jr. were doing the other day? Were they just expressing their opinions and everyone is free to do that? Bull. They were yelling fire in a theater and the kindling was laid for years by those right wing nutty alternate-fact sites. They must be shut down. Let them whine and phule about how unfair it is. In jail. If they have put up seditious statements they are complicit. Twenty years.

Hell, move them all to Guantanamo where they can learn to throw feces at the guards with the Muslim extremists that they have castigated for so long.

There is a core that will follow Satan no matter what. Some have suggested an Elbe Island type solution. I like it. Hey, is that island for sale? Can we rent it? Put them all out there, along with the last few from Guantanamo. Let ‘em free, to run wild. Lord of the Flies, Papillon and all that (look it up.) No internet, no twitter.

Speaking of that Satan has been kicked off Twitter forever. Some say he might move to Parlr, the twitter type site for even more extreme people (good people for sure: neo-Nazis, anti- Semites, etc.) Apparently, Apple and Google have dropped the Parlr app from their stores.

To those who say, “Why bother impeaching him?” Well, see, it’s like this. After he is impeached Congress can pass another law saying he can never run for office again. And for all you fiscally minded conservatives, he loses: his pension, his million dollar a year travel budget, and his protection services. That’s for starters. 

But here’s the real final blow. Olive Garden is working with the FBI to see if any of the protestors have their “Pasta for Life” privilege, if so it is revoked! They singled out one Sean Hannity as losing his privilege. Wow.

Now we’re talking.

PS No soup for you!
