Damn. I really don’t want to get into politics,
but I need to point this out.
As happy as I am about the current state of the government,
and the potential for the future…
The enthusiasm that I see on the right is coming
too close to hero worship for my comfort.
They’re all human, with human strengths and weaknesses.
We, the People, must keep a close and realistic eye on them all.
Trust, yes. But verify.
I think the enthusiasm may die down. Or not. Or it may
change to rage. Not necessarily at the left. Nor at the right.
But at the outright theft by those in power for lo these many years.
I already see the rage building toward those that started and grew the present mess.
And yes, Petercat, I have the same concerns.
We need to get back to the understanding that the elected officials are our
EMPLOYEES, not an elite ruling class.
That’s going to be a lot harder than taking $2B from Stacy Abrams.
If I understand you, you’re concerned about a cult of personality
developing around Trump, Musk and members of Trump’s cabinet.
I don’t see that happening. The people who are celebrating what
Trump is doing really are the last people one would expect to be
caught up in a cult of personality. I think our elation is just the
result of the ending of all the gaslighting and heavy handed control
measures we’ve experienced in the last 4 years. It’s like when you
close a door on your thumb. It feels SSSOOOOOO good when it’s
over! We’re just happy that somebody is genuinely trying to fix the
mess of the federal government. Believe me. All the pundits I watch
on YouTube, while rejoicing at the (apparent) progress Trump and
his team are making, are making sure people don’t get stars in their
eyes. The 2A community, while cautiously optimistic, are well aware
that AG Bondi is not a real friend to the RKBA. How about we table
this discussion for 6 months or so and see if a cult of personality
develops. I’m quite confident it will not.
They have questions...
Panels 5-8: Well, she tried! And he’s right.
And now we have a cliffhanger again.
And now it’s weekend – the looong wait…
How to set an Emperor straight politely.
Loki is right, but I wonder if he is by
himself in this adventure?
Are his peers going to let him do this?
The Cat sayeth nothing…
Damn. I really don’t want to get into politics,
