FOOT IN MOUTH DISEASE OR FAMOUS LAST WORDS

 It is a 'terrible' affliction. That is, when people cannot find it within themselves to shut up and think before opening their mouths - and then finding their feet in selfsame mouths. Then they wonder why people poke fun at and of them and their oh so brilliant comments. The topic matters almost not at all, as these people think they have all the answers and will shout their inanities at you from morning to night. What is a big problem though with this disease is that too high a percentage of these idiots are also dangerous due to their words and comments.

"Are these lawyers the stupidest? Are they the stupidest?" "Who are they? Where did they come from? Who hired them? How come I always get the worst lawyers?"

Now is that for real? Who the hell does he think hired those lawyers? Perhaps he would have been better off had he hired official clowns but instead he hired Giuliani who was totally off the wall. Refusing to take personal responsibility for his own decisions? Nothing new under the sun.

Psaki had a good clap back at Trump who is now suing Big Tech, claiming they only censored him.  "I think it's safe to say that the president spends a lot less time obsessing over social media than the former president." Well, no, they tried to censor all ridiculous and/or venomous statements, but did not succeed.  More brilliant words of wisdom from a supporter, "...the top Republican on the House Judiciary Committee's Subcommittee on Antitrust, Commercial and Administrative Law, which is investigating Big Tech—also said of Google, "They chose the winner." Google changed its algorithm "to disadvantage Donald Trump and to advantage Joe Biden... they chose the winner," moving an estimated 15 million votes"

I kid you not! Famous last words from yet another GOP idiot, dangerous in his rabid loyalty to Trump or fear, take your pick. Where and how does this end? The truly serious issue with censoring is where does it cross the line and violate freedom of speech? There must be a very clear line and some thinking intelligent people who can figure it out, but evidently, that leaves out the DC crowd!

Certainly, though, one of the most serious famous last words arise from the bitter, not understood at all war of words that has jumped the border into violence and violence inciting. Accompanying those incredibly dumb yet dangerous remarks is the minimization of the horror perpetrated upon the world by the Nazis, from indiscriminate bombing, to murder on a vast scale never seen before, a scientific and crazed plan to end certain nations, in particular the Jews, with the Romany close behind. Using the word Nazi, with all its baggage, to describe those with whom you disagree is a major case of foot in mouth and Greene, in particular, does this so often that her foot and her mouth have become best friends. 

"Rep. Lauren Boebert called door-to-door vaccinators "needle Nazis"  

 "Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, has repeatedly compared inoculation efforts to Nazism. Most recently, the Georgia lawmaker referred to door-to-door vaccinators as "medical brown shirts" and described the coronavirus as "a political tool used to control people"

   some flight attendants are "becoming almost Nazis of the air."

This has led yet to another awful scene dialed up by yet another GOP fanatic fan. "... numerous Barbie dolls hanging on a wall in front of his home and from trees on the property. Several of the dolls wear protective face masks while others have nails puncturing their arms to represent the COVID-19 vaccine. Red paint marking the dolls is meant to signify supposed medical issues stemming from the shot."

 Yup, saving one's life and that of others has now become a despicable act. Well, not in my book. Not in any sane mind.

Could we maybe tone down the level of threats, stupidity, venom dripping and ridiculous statements? Can we not try to be adults, act our age rather than morph into toddlers at the mention of certain trigger words?

Dear Lord in Heaven! I hope so, for if we do not, we will all be lost even as we take the next step into dangerous stupidity, by denying climate change, even as NYC floods again, the fires burn in glorious Hawaii, the western USA is heating up unbelievably, cities are literally underwater at times, let alone island nations, and volcanoes are erupting even as the earth shakes. But, no climate change. Just ask a GOP member or one of the great unwashed. 

Speaking of being 'woke' well, wake up to that. Wake up to the fact that we must change, else we will all find ourselves having said our famous last words. Not a pretty thought.
