Dear F,
How 'bout this new meme?
I could add that Trump dosed Robert with a new and particularly lethal strain of COVID that had been genetically-redesigned by Fauci himself.
Whadahya think?
I tell you F -- as God is my witness -- that the only thing standing between the United States and collapse into some kind of "dark age" is the left's fairly consistent refusal to lie about every, single, god-damn thing; preferring instead to argue on the basis of fact-checkable data.
Sure there's bullshit on both sides of the aisle.
But there are also threshold phenomena. And on the near side of any threshold, the center holds.
On the far side of the threshold all Hell breaks loose.
And I mean All Hell.
Conservative pundit P.J. O'Rourke describes "threshold phenomena" to a "T."
Speaking of crucial thresholds...
Not only was conspiracism foundational to Trump's 2016 campaign, conspiracism is at the forefront of Trump Cult's passion for Falsehood.

Dialogue With Fred Maske About "Conspiracy Theories That Have Changed The Course Of History"
The odd thing is that conspiracists know they are lying, but they need the "confirmation" of conspiratorial lies in order to maintain their identity.
So much human behavior - especially when "push comes to shove" - is based on the kneejerk urge to protect one's identity.
"Fear And Anxiety Drive Conservatives Political Attitudes": How The Values Of "Strict Father" -- Or "Nurturant Parent" -- Control Our Political Views
Once identity disappears, it's rather like dementia.
And so people opt for ANYTHING to avoid confronting the (apparent) horror of "losing their religion."
Conspiracists know, for example, that it is impossible for three people to keep a secret but nevertheless insist that massive conspiracies take place all the time - conspiracies involving hundreds and thousands of people.
They know this from their own lives.
But they deny it because their lives -- at least as they now live them -- are only "liveable" if they are established on a foundation of falsehood.
It got to the point that ever mass murder caused by firearms was IMMEDIATELY denounced as a theatrical put-on by so called "crisis actors" paid by Homeland Security. And the overwhelming number of conspiracists argued that often, it was the same group of crisis actors who would fly all over the globe to stage mass carnage as theatrical events.

Here are a couple of new memes in anticipation of Trump's imminent announcement that "The vaccine is ready!"
Did you get the full revelation by Trump's sister?
Here is the gist of the former federal court judge's comments from an article by ABC News.
"Maryanne Trump Barry was secretly recorded by her niece, Mary Trump, who recently released a book denouncing the president, “Too Much and Never Enough: How My Family Created the World’s Most Dangerous Man.”
In one recording, (judge) Barry, 83, says she had heard a 2018 interview with her brother on Fox News in which he suggested that he would put her on the border to oversee cases of immigrant children separated from their parents.
“His base, I mean my God, if you were a religious person, you want to help people. Not do this,” Barry says.
At another point she says: “His goddamned tweet and lying, oh my God." She adds: “I’m talking too freely, but you know. The change of stories. The lack of preparation. The lying. Holy shit.”
The Monstrous Cruelty Of Family Separation, A Heinous "Crime Against Humanity"
Barry can also be heard saying that she guesses that her brother has never read her opinions on immigration cases.
“What has he read?” Mary Trump asks her aunt.
Barry responds: “No. He doesn’t read."
Jim Mattis Describes Trump As A Dolt Who Does Not Read And Has No Interest In Learning
She calls him an "unprincipled phoney" who "can't be trusted."
The recordings were first reported by The Washington Post. The Associated Press then obtained the recordings.
The president has frequently spoken highly of his sister; the recordings are the first time a family member, outside of Mary Trump, has been critical of him.
“Mary realized members of her family had lied in prior depositions,” said Chris Bastardi, a spokesman for Mary Trump. He added: “Anticipating litigation, she felt it prudent to tape conversations in order to protect herself.”
The recordings illuminate the tension between the president and his sister. At one point Barry says to her niece: “It’s the phoniness of it all. It’s the phoniness and this cruelty. Donald is cruel.”

More Of Trump's Cruelty
Mary Trump’s book was filled with attacks on her uncle, including the assertion — he denied it — that he paid someone to take the SATs for him as he sought to transfer into the University of Pennsylvania.
In one recording, the federal judge says that a Joe Shapiro took the test for Trump. The president was friends with a person at Penn named Joe Shapiro, who is deceased. Shapiro’s widow and sister told have said he never took a test for anybody.
Bastardi said of Mary Trump: "She never expected to learn much of what she heard, including the president’s sister, federal judge Maryanne Trump Barry, state that Donald Trump had paid someone to take an SAT exam for him.”"

More Of Trump's Cruelty
Alan: What becomes clearer every day is not Trump's political corruption and personal putrescence.
Those "qualities" have been evident from the get-go.
What becomes clearer every day is the role his enablers play.
And by enablers, I don't just mean people who actively support him.
Even more than those lost souls, I mean people who don't speak out against him.
They could. But they don't.
I think they realize (and fundamentally approve) Trump's creation of an environment in which conspiratorial delusion thrives - takes on a kind of "normalcy."
And they crave that validation.
And in the process they become craven.
I have several friends who could speak out and don't.
I pity them.
They have been overtaken by spiritual calamity.
Love
Alan
