I have had it! Like most of us, I have found myself sitting in the background, watching the BS in Washington play out and not doing a damn thing for fear of offending some Fascist, loony toon, Big Lie believing, Anti-Vax, Anti-Mask hate mongers.
It’s the old, “When you wrestle with pigs, all you do is get muddy” syndrome…
It simply doesn’t make sense to sit idly by while A bunch of right-wing nutbags destroy democracy.
It’s time to get muddy. I mean this in the nicest way, of course. But, standing outside the sty and watching the pigs wallow will never change their behavior. It’s time to hop in, roll around in the mud, and come up with a fresh slice of political ham.
Do we really think that, if we peacefully and benevolently persuade long enough, with sincerity in our hearts, that the people who are fine with invading the Capitol, are going to change...
Pigs only understand political force (Prudently and legally enforced in a non-violent Democratic manner). No political force, no fear, no change. We can all be friendly and kind and considerate and all that stuff after the rot has been rooted out by the most rapid means available.
And while we are at it, I suggest we get moving on some trials in DC.
And, a standing ovation for The Boston Globe.
Thanks for listening. I feel better now. Hope to see you with me in the sties.
