The great emperor-with-no-clothes wasting taxpayer money and getting the greeting he deserves.

Someone posted this earlier. I feel it should be reposted again. Which line’s going to to be checked off next?

That’s right. Let’s explain away the blatant nazi salutes as exuberance. All the while ignoring his public support of the neo-nazi regime attempting to take power in Germany. You know what a rich white kid born in apartheid S. African grows up to be? The same racists white supremacist, only older.

@pattonoswalt.bsky.social posted this on one of the other platforms. Sums up exactly what I was thinking. The next 4 years: one PR stunt after another with the goal of having the majority of people in the US vote against their best interests. All in the name of democracy. Oligarchy really.

They were summoned, knelt and kissed the ring, paid their million dollar tribute, and will sit where they are told. Little did the emperor with no clothes know that they were playing him for their own greed and power dreams. It’s plain to see, yet no one says a thing and the people will suffer.

Sometimes, a tiny visitor can give you the moment of pause you so desperately need. The thick heaviness of world-on-fire feelings was put on hold for a moment as this apex predator stared at me unphased while I took her picture.
