    Yeah, I would absolutely take issue with the head of a government institution saying something like that.

    Yeah. He knows that. That’s exactly why he does it. How do y’all not know their playbook by now? There are only two plays.

    1. Do evil Nazi shit.
    2. Say stupid shit online to keep the press and liberal Internet circles distracted from the evil Nazi shit.

    That’s the whole playbook.

      This is gibberish.

      1. Do evil Nazi shit.
      2. Say evil Nazi shit online to… distract people from the evil Nazi shit?

      That’s not a playbook. That’s an evil Nazi doing evil Nazi shit and then never letting us forget that he’s an evil Nazi.

        But while you should focus on the no. 1 stuff, you are far too easily distracted by the no. 2 stuff.

        The Scouts news this weekend is a perfect example. Functionally nothing changed in the program, but they are able to make you go insane like a puppet.

          It’s a signal for what they want to do to the program, and the government has a lot of ways to pressure Scouts to make it happen. It’s a distraction until it becomes reality, like all the other evil Nazi shit they do. This is how they signal their future plans, just like forcing us out of sports and forcing us into the wrong bathroom and taking away our identification paperwork and putting us in men’s prisons and then taking away our hormones when we’re in prison. They push push push until they get what they want.

          They’re evil Nazis and they want to exterminate all trans people. This is just another thing they want to do, and if we let them, they will.

          But I’m just a stupid fucking puppet, what the fuck do I know?
