Laugh At Them
Some useful-ish advice on the trashy circus that's come to town.
Hello friends. I realize it’s been a hot minute since I’ve written anything on here, but life has gotten exceptionally busy (and since I started writing this, tragic, but I’ll save that perhaps for another time when I’ve collected myself from the fallout).
And if I’m being honest, my mood has been pretty terrible given *waves hands above head* ALLLL THIS SHIT!
I’ve struggled to find my voice and my focus and what I can do and say about what we are going through collectively since the election.
My time today is short, but I really want to get this out there. I want to get back on the horse again and use my powers for good.
As anyone who knows me will tell you, I’ve always considered myself a student and practitioner of the Gonzo journalism method that the old wise old maniac sage Hunter S. Thompson spearheaded so many moons ago.
Meaning, I will share my personal truths and first-hand experiences of things, which allows me to color outside the lines that traditional journalism can. I’ve always found traditional journalism to be shackled by so-called (and honestly, bullshit) objectivity.
I know this method very well. I have a Bachelor of Science in Journalism, and I’ve spent many years of my career in this field. This includes being an executive producer for a national news radio talkshow that brought me face-to-face with the hideous orange one in the east room of the White House during his first shitbag run.
That is a story I will save for another time. I share this now because of my experience working with the administration and being basically embedded in the conservative media for nearly 3 years during the first term of Chump, I have first-hand experience and insider knowledge of all of it and how these fuckers operate. The following screed is informed by all that.
But I am veering off course.
This is not about me. This is about us.
All of us.
Like many of you, I have been in the dumps and feeling pretty doom-ridden with the return of Chump and Company. And I’ve been at a loss for words about what exactly we can do it about. But recently, I had an epiphany of sorts. Sort of a coalescing of old childhood experiences combined with a new energy of sorts. So without further ado, let’s jump in head first. Forgive my saltiness. I’m channeling the collective rage with my own fury here.
Allow me to offer some advice and some perspective on how we deal with the circus that has come to town.
First of all. What we have been experiencing since the inauguration is a tactic that was discussed long ago by one of the old-school OG operators of the MAGA movement - the Godfather of GarbageTown… a boozed-out wanna-be war tactician hack tv producer criminal named Steve Bannon. This rotting corpse of a flesh bag complete with the 6 goodwill jackets he always wears at the same time, read Art of War a few times and thinks he’s the incarnation of Sun Tsu.
He called this shitty attack on America via stacks of Executive Orders and decrees without the approval or even knowledge of either branch of government from Chump and Co “flooding the field”, or hitting the media with muzzle blasts of insanity.
His philosophy is that the media can only handle one or two things at a time, so if you flood them with 50, they won’t be able to keep up. They will only focus on one thing and the rest will just get ignored. This way, they can ensure whatever horrific agenda they want to push can slip by in the crowd of chaos they are creating.
This booze-breath bozo with rotting makeup is nothing more than a limp dick producer for a rotting makeup clown tv game show host who is clearly past his prime these days.
Because they stand for nothing except raw power, cruelty, crime and the theft of wealth, they teamed up with another asshole and got bought out on the cheap by an illegal immigrant white supremacist from south africa who stole his companies, his ideas and his fortunes and most likely helped them steal an election.
Now he’s playing these clowns like he’s played the rest of us. And he’ll get away with it because he knows if they boot him, he’ll spill the beans and tell the world all about their sinister plot to overthrow America.
The whole lot of em are just rich kids who hate their dads and are taking it out on us in the worst sequel ever written.
The goal? To get richer. That’s really it. And if that means we all suffer and die, fuck us right?
All of this horror, all of the pain they are inflicting and will continue to do really comes down to the simple fact that they just want to make more money.
They want to own all the properties on the Monopoly board and cover them with hotels.
The problem is they think they’re more clever than they are. They forgot the whole point of Monopoly was to warn us about unchecked capitalism. I don’t know about you, but that game always ended the same for me. Someone invariably got pissed off and flipped the board. And if someone decided to take control of the money without permission, so that they could loot it for themselves and win the game, sheeeit. That would be a game-ender. I remember a kid grab a bat once during an edgy drunk game of Monopoly for this very reason. And we were just playing with FAKE money!
But that’s basically what Elonna did with his hostile takeover of the US Treasury using his stupid fake illegal Doggy Dep.
They’ve brainwashed their believers into thinking they are working for them, but in all reality, the red hatters are being played too. They will suffer as much as the rest of us. They are being looted too. And many of them are finally starting to see it too.
It’s a show. A shitshow.
A circus run by clowns.
A joke.
And it is already falling apart.
It is failing.
They are failing.
Fuck these clowns.
The executive orders dumb-dumb scribbled his unintelligible name on were as legit as his stupid steaks. No one wants them. They have all collapsed instantly.
He didn’t even know what he was signing, because he can’t actually read, so there’s no way he wrote any of them.
Heritage Foundation did. We all know it. That was what Project 2025 was all about. Their hideous right wing hostile takeover of America in some manifesto that makes the Unibomber seem tame.
There is nothing behind their offense but cruelty, stupidity, hate and vengeance.
There is no strategy of governing, of leading, of unity.
We won’t stand for it.
They will lose their thin margin in Congress, maybe even sooner than 2 years.
Stop listening to the orange clown and his pathetic little nazi stooge swasticar maker.
They want us to feel powerless. But that’s how a bully acts.
Stand tall. Dig in. Don’t be outraged. Don’t be afraid. Stare them down with a steely resolve like the heroes do in the movie right before they chest kick the bad guy into a pit yelling “THIS IS SPARTAAAA!”
They are already losing. Their base is even turning on them now that they’re realizing they are going to lose their social security, Medicaid and their livelihoods. At least that what I’m hearing from some local red hatters near me.
They are clowns. All of them. Bully ass clowns.
There's one response a bully hates more than anything, but it’s the only response to clowns. Laughter.
They are a joke. A shitty racist stupid terrible joke. But we gotta laugh at this whole fucking thing. Don’t stop laughing at them. That’s how we win.
Remember how much they hated being called weirdos? They hate it when we stop taking them seriously. Every bully hates to be laughed at. Laughter is demoralizing and shows you don’t fear them.
I learned this as a kid who dealt with his fair share of asshole bullies. They hate being laughed at. They want to be the king of the playground. So when you mock them, when you stop taking them seriously, when you don’t give them what they want, which is always ultimately, POWER, then they start to shrink down, deflate and lose their strength.
Once you get past the smoke and mirrors of their big scary show, you realize they're just weak-ass old white racist men who know their time is short.
Much like the old dumb “wizard” of Oz. Just a sad old guy putting on a scary show to control the world. Once you pull the curtain back, you expose these losers for what they are, it’s over.
Same goes with Pennywise from “It”. How did they beat him? They stop being afraid of him. They unified and stood up to him together. As he shrank, they destroyed the monster.
When an organism is dying, they have one last "surge" before it is over. That’s what we are witnessing. The surge before they finally die the fuck off.
Don’t get me wrong. These clowns still have a lot of power, a lot of tricks up their sleeve and they will hurt people. Many people will probably die. Just like the first time.
COVID killed millions because of the incompetence and cruelty of Chump the first time around. Which includes my own mother, who died of COVID. So I have a personal vendetta with this piece of shit and his agenda of aggression.
But I refuse to give them what they want. Which is unwavering, unflinching loyalty. Servitude. Praise. They will never get that from me. And they shouldn’t get it from you either.
I see them for exactly who they are: Stupid evil fucking clowns.
It may feel like the end, it may be painful, and ugly and we may take some damage, but in reality, it is the end of them.
It is always darkest before the dawn.
They are on the wrong side of history. They know it. Their entire shit worldview doesn't vibe with the survival of the species.
We ain't going down with the ship so Elonna can escape to Mars. Although, if I’m being honest, I’d like nothing more than to see that rich little prick climb into one of his rockets and zip out into space so we never have to see or hear from his stupid ass ever again.
But don’t stop laughing at these clowns.
Hold the line. Stand tall side by side with each other. Take care of each other. When one of us falls down pick them up! Defend those who cannot defend themselves. And if they swing on you, swing back. And look them in the eyes while you're laughing at them.
Never stop laughing at them.
We will outlast this circus show.
It is their final gasp before they die off.
Don’t give them your fear. Don't give them what they want. Give them what they deserve: Our ridicule.
They are ridiculous nasty little smirking clowns. Treat them accordingly.
Our greatest weapon is laughter.
Laugh at them.
Laugh at these fucking clowns.
