A Sense of Doubt blog post #2312 - You are invited to DO A COUP
Increasingly, people are losing their sense of humor. I want to say this is an epidemic JUST among Republicans, but it seems to have infected many Democrats, too.
But we have to LAUGH because this shit is getting more and more RIDICULOUS.
Before I explain, I want a moment to express how much I HATE binary thinking. There's a reason that OVER-SIMPLIFICATION is one of the most insidious logical fallacies.
This idea that there are two camps is just as stupid as some of the rhetoric being pandered.
But this is where we are. As it was EASIER, to promote the idea that biological sex and gender are the same so as to be able to market, simply, to boys associated with blue things and girls associated with pink things (even though prior to the 1950s, these color associations were reversed), it is easier to push Republicans and conservatives into a separate camp and Democrats and liberals into the other camp as if ALL Republicans believe the same things and ALL Democrats believe diametrically opposite things.
This kind of thinking is SO STUPID, AND it is going to lead to SOME KIND OF CIVIL WAR if we do not stop the trajectory now.
Because I would hope that not even FOX NEWSIES believe this BULLSHIT:
Tucker Carlson roasted for suggesting the FBI was behind the Capitol insurrection
‘Tucker is all performance. No art,” said tweet in response to claims that Media Matters For America called a ‘bizarre conspiracy theory’
So, we have to laugh. Because that's some ridiculous BULLSHIT, which is why I love THE WONKETTE. The site and its writers believe in laughter and in snark. THANK ECLIPSE FOR THE SNARKY HUMOR.
And so, today's WONKETTE shares such humor and snark based on a happening that WAS HILARIOUS.
Third year law student at Stanford distributed "fake" flyers on campus inviting people to "Do a Coup" sponsored (allegedly) by campus organizations.
THIS IS EXACTLY THE KIND OF SHIT I WOULD HAVE DONE!!!!
In fact, I did things like this. ALL THE TIME.
I fucking love it.
Thankfully, we have the Internet now, so this kind of brilliant comedy can be shared far and wide as can the outrage when Stanford tried to withhold this brilliant student comic and rebel's LAW DEGREE.
Happily, STANFORD LAW did the right thing in the end.

- New note - On 1807.06, I ceased daily transmission of my Hey Mom feature after three years of daily conversations. I plan to continue Hey Mom posts at least twice per week but will continue to post the days since ("Days Ago") count on my blog each day. The blog entry numbering in the title has changed to reflect total Sense of Doubt posts since I began the blog on 0705.04, which include Hey Mom posts, Daily Bowie posts, and Sense of Doubt posts. Hey Mom posts will still be numbered sequentially. New Hey Mom posts will use the same format as all the other Hey Mom posts; all other posts will feature this format seen here.
