    They are willing to sacrifice for stupidity. Duurr just doing my part paying high prices so our President can embezzle more money. It’s the Ameridumb way!

    I had to go find that onion post. Most of it is funny stuff about wanting prices to be higher for no particular reason, but this got me at the end: "I figure anyone who sells oil knows better than I do what to do with my money. As my grandmother used to say, the higher the gas price, the closer to God.” The absurdity is still there, yeah, but it’s just too close to reality. I’m an old white guy born in the Trumpian Farmlands of Pennsyltucky, and it shook me a bit. That first line especially… They wouldn’t say it out loud because they have to maintain the iamverybadass facade, but they live to be a cog in the machine, to serve the higher life form that will be their salvation. It’s almost like their god, their cult leader, and their president can be the same person. And that’s before we address the part where they chose one of the worst humans possible. Unfortunately if there is any difference between these two takes it’s that the real-life person says the quiet part out loud.
