yesterday, a frail old man in serious cognitive decline managed to slip past his caregivers at the White House Home for the Aged, and wandered across town until he found himself at CPAC.
as he looked around, a dim memory was roused within the old man’s long-gone mind.
‘a stage. Donny like being on stage. Donny give speech.’
meandering to the front of the hall, the old man got up on the stage, and, finding himself in front of a microphone, began to gibber incoherently.
--“the word tariff is my favorite word in the dictionary. you know, we were richest, the richest relatively, from — think of this — from 1870 to 1913. that was our richest. because we collected tariffs from foreign countries, that came in and took our jobs. took our money. took our everything, but they charged tariffs, and we had so much money they set up the 1887. think of that, long time ago, 1887 Tariff Commission, it was a commission of very important people, to determine where we should spend all of the tremendous vast wealth that we had. we had so much wealth. wouldn’t it— nice today? because now we give it away to transgender this, transgender that, everybody gets a transgender operation. just wonderful.”--
first of all, who the fuck is this ‘we’ who had ‘so much wealth’?
the late-19th-early-20th century was the era of the robber barons. there were maybe a half dozen morbidly wealthy dudes — old white men with names like Vanderbilt and Carnegie and Rockefeller — and everyone else was cordially invited to go fuck themselves, as they fought each other to catch the table scraps thrown by the plutocrats.
so no, ‘we’ didn’t have ‘so much wealth.’ ‘we’ worked in their factories, mills and coal mines, for twelve hours a day, six days a week. so did our children. there were no unions. no healthcare.
but let’s turn to the final part of Donny’s rant. this bit:
--‘because now we give it away to transgender this, transgender that, everybody gets a transgender operation.’--
what the fuck are you blithering about, you demented homunculus?
no one is ‘giving’ anything ‘away’ to transgendered people. there’s no magical government pipeline where you check a box on a form and voila, here comes free money! that’s a fever-swamp fairy tale — a dangerous, recycled fairy tale that only helps to rouse fear and resentment of a small segment of society that just wants to quietly live their lives in peace.
you know who is getting free money from the government? the Space Nazi.
--Musk’s own companies have accepted over $20 billion in taxpayer funds in the form of contracts, tax breaks, and other subsidies.--
the ‘transgenders,’ as Donny calls them, are getting jack shit.
this constant demonization of the trans community, is, however having its intended effect: the cultists have been hornswaggled into believing that a tiny fragment of the population is a massive, looming so-called ‘threat.’
just think about how fucktastically delusional that is. twenty-one percent. that’s 21 people out of every 100 — roughly one out of every five.
seriously? one person out of every five is trans?
think about what that would actually mean, if it were true. as you go about your business, shopping at the supermarket, one out of every five people you encounter is trans? is that what anyone is seeing? seriously?
six seconds of critical thinking is all it takes to realize this is nonsense — but the entire wingnut outrage-industrial complex has taken reality and given it such a vigorous clownfucking that Americans no longer believe what their own eyes tell them. Tiedrich
Transgender people constitute less than 1% of the population, but in polling on average people believe they constitute 21% of the population. I have to think this is the idiot MAGA crowd for the most part.
