The Tangled Web Of Shorts

"Maze 8" by Herr D on heromachine.com. "Oh, what a tangled web we weave." Shakespeare

 

Two more shorts you show me? They are both on the same subject.

Yeah, K. McCarthy and that guy he's probably quoting talking about how slavery was ended by Republicans, as was Jim Crow. Yes.

[long pause] Your response?

[snort] ? You are sleeping?

[pause] I should be. [rereads above in chatbox] Wasn't that when Republicans were liberal and Democrats were conservative? I mean, the party that should be called Democrats is the one that believes VOTES BY VOTERS SHOULD COUNT. Trump tried to overturn the election, and so did several other Republicans. Republicans are the ones that gerrymander and try to make it harder for some people to vote and try to keep poorer people away from power. 

Democrats want everyone to vote. Maybe they'd be better off if no one so easily fooled by KM, or worse, MTG, were allowed to vote. Maybe only people smart enough to stop defaming victims so they don't have courts find for the plaintiff? Alex Jones is too stupid then. How about people fooled by Trump?  What was that? A third of the population? Now, some of them are STILL snowed by him. How about Republicans in general? Would maybe we be better off if they didn't have ANY say? How about people who believe in ANY CONSPIRACY THEORY? Maybe they shouldn't have a voice either? Maybe they shouldn't have any RIGHTS?! How about that? Does this mean you are not a Democrat?

[laughter] I'm not. I'm not egalitarian enough to be a Democrat. I'm not stupid enough or power-hungry enough to be a Republican. I'm not extreme enough to have a popular voice in today's politics. I'm almost as alien as Hairy said he was. He insisted he was not.

Right. [exits]
