The person who makes a Fauci mask in time for Halloween this year will clean up.

Meantime, it would be amusing to put the yellow "social distancing" sign, with two foot imprints on it, that they're using on the NYC subway platforms, on the chest of a T-shirt.

Folks can walk around with pool noodles on their heads.

Seattle: Lesbian mayor, awash with rioters and armed thugs, possessed of an "autonomous zone."
Chicago: Lesbian mayor, awash with rioters and armed thugs, possessed of "no-go zones."

I think we have a "Sister City" program here!

It would be great to whip up a monument to the nursing-home residents slaughtered by Cuomo, and dedicate it in a public ceremony in Albany.

Yes, but what to put on the plaque would be an issue. I mean, do you really want it to say, "To Governor Cuomo in dedication for all the grandparents and parents you murdered during COVID-19--may he suffer in eternity by having 100 years in hell for each person who died"?

Needs to be edited slightly for length, but that's a good working start.  

Anyway, the "People's Dedication of a New Monument" ceremony would be epic.

Personally, I’m in favor of putting up multiple Donald Trump statues overnight in various deep blue cities, that are booby-trapped with Claymore mines. But that’s just me.

I was thinking more of bouncing Betty mines in the surrounding grounds.

Hmm, perhaps more fitting, considering they'll be protecting a statue of Literally Hitler.

I'd love to see it happen.  

Along with indictments of the whole rogue's gallery involved in trying to weaponize the federal government against the President.

So his funeral was an opportunity for grandstanding by local black "leaders."  Interesting that Bernice King was talking -- I thought she was anathema because she h8s teh gheys.

And Jon Ossoff, of course, the Beta O'Rourke of Georgia.  After he loses the Senate Race, maybe he and Stacey the Hutt can put together a ticket to run for the presidency in 2024.

If Stacey isn't too busy being Vice President,  I assume she'll run for reelection as Governor in 2022.

And now, Madison, WI:  BLM thug follows random white man into restaurant, screaming into a bullhorn and carrying a baseball bat; gets arrested. So of course, BLM thugs explode into rage, tear down statutes, including that of an abolitionist.

I've been saying that for some time.  Nobody wants to see a massacre---and, indeed, a massacre will be used (initially, at least) as a recruiting tool by the organizers of this national insurrection---but just as burning out the OWS encampments would have meant no antifa, just as the atomic bombs (actually, the second bomb) obviated the need for invading Japan, a couple of full-force responses in different cities would cause the rest of the rabble to suddenly discover business elsewhere.  

100 years ago shooting down a couple of hundred demonstrators at a single demonstration would have raised eyebrows for a very brief time.  Shooting ten or twenty at, say, three different locations around the country would get a lot more outrage today, but it too would pass---and the resultant peace, however uneasy, would be preferable to what we have now.

It need not even be shooting them down.  They need to be arrested en masse for the crimes they are brazenly committing, and do hard time.  If not, things may well turn very guerra sucia before long.

You're right; and your suggestion would be preferable.  My one cavil is that the wheels of justice are rusty and balky, and that there needs to be something sufficiently physically painful to enough people in a short enough time to drive home to these vicious dullards the unwisdom of their behavior patterns.

I have to concur. OWS went away but simply morphed into BLM. We want to make sure that BLM doesn't morph into something else. This would also mean getting rid of the funding for BLM and sister groups, which would mean shutting down ActBlue and the way they fund the Democrat Party. 

Oh, dear. That would be horrible. Heh. Hehehehehehe.

I fear the battle is lost.

We have two generations now who know nothing.  The basic elements of the western cultural heritage are not only utterly unknown to them, they have been taught that they are all irredeemably evil.  There is no virtue to be found in any of the cultural inheritance of the last 5,000 years.  And that has been accomplished in our lifetime!  It is remarkable, perhaps the greatest act of cultural suicide since man came down from the trees.

Not knowing anything about the heritage they despise, it is impossible to talk to them.  I discovered this more and more towards the end.  They cannot appreciate beauty, because everything has been subordinated in their minds to politics.  All things before this instant are evil; the only good is some abstraction that exists off in some distant and ill-defined future.  All that we need to get there is to destroy everything around us.  The apocalypse will bring redemption.  The past, on the other hand, can only corrupt.

With a very large part of the population having internalized that mindset, there is no hope of saving civilization.
