'I Feel Fragile': Hilarious 'Woke' NYT Op-Ed Shows How Trump Has Broken the Minds of Liberal America

....this latest op-ed surely captures how the "woke" Left took over this section. We have some guy saying that even with a Joe Biden win in 2020, it “won’t cure his Trump-era depression.” These people are babies. They’re fragile. And when you’re this unspooled because of an election loss—you need to get a life. Seriously. For all of their lectures about privilege, it would seem liberals cannot take their own medicine, that being they think they’re entitled to win every election because…they went to college or something. They feel right on the issues. It’s pathetic. But this phrase in the op-ed truly shows how these cultural terrorists have taken over and it did not go unnoticed (via NYT) [emphasis mine]:

Bwahahahahaha! Then again, some of us call it winning. Besides which, some of the democommies didn't have far to go to the crack.

'I Feel Fragile'

Yes. That's how snowflakes, and flakes in general, are.

”... broken the minds of liberal America...”

‘Breaking‘ the mind of a liberal is like killing a dead unicorn.

After a Obama it was only ever supposed to be their turn.

He didn’t break their minds, their minds were already broken. He just gav3 them an opportunity to show themselves for what they already were. Anyone who defeated a ankles would have.

Get a grip. Talk to someone from the greatest generation, went through the Depression, WWII and most were able to get on with their lives.

“No, I never assumed that in my lifetime we would defeat the entrenched forces of white supremacist heteropatriarchal capitalism.”

In the words of Van Halen “might as well JUMP!”

These people are only formidable adversaries because nobody fought them on a political level for decades.

“.....How Trump Has Broken the Minds of Liberal America”

How do you break something that’s already so broken it can’t be put back together even with Crazy Glue?

6 months of liberal lockdown made her mind crack just as the SLA did putting Patty Hearst in a closer

IF Biden wins the election - HEAVEN HELP US - we will all be feeling the same way. I feel like crying just thinking of what it would do to the country. These whiners and losers NEVER thought their loss in 2016 was going to hurt the country - just that it wasn’t FAIR and that it upset their agenda...country never came into it. Pray without ceasing!!

Do the snowflakes still have their safe spaces? I figure the liberals who were in college 4 years ago that needed safe spaces are out in the real world now.

They are fragile.

Let’s shatter them, it should be easy.

These people are beyond fragile. They truly are as delicate as snowflakes. That moniker fits them perfectly.

These individuals believed their fiction was reality:

The Gods of the Copybook Headings
by Rudyard Kipling

AS I PASS through my incarnations in every age and race,
I make my proper prostrations to the Gods of the Market Place.
Peering through reverent fingers I watch them flourish and fall,
And the Gods of the Copybook Headings, I notice, outlast them all.

We were living in trees when they met us. They showed us each in turn
That Water would certainly wet us, as Fire would certainly burn:
But we found them lacking in Uplift, Vision and Breadth of Mind,
So we left them to teach the Gorillas while we followed the March of Mankind.

We moved as the Spirit listed. They never altered their pace,
Being neither cloud nor wind-borne like the Gods of the Market Place,
But they always caught up with our progress, and presently word would come
That a tribe had been wiped off its icefield, or the lights had gone out in Rome.

With the Hopes that our World is built on they were utterly out of touch,
They denied that the Moon was Stilton; they denied she was even Dutch;
They denied that Wishes were Horses; they denied that a Pig had Wings;
So we worshipped the Gods of the Market Who promised these beautiful things.

When the Cambrian measures were forming, They promised perpetual peace.
They swore, if we gave them our weapons, that the wars of the tribes would cease.
But when we disarmed They sold us and delivered us bound to our foe,
And the Gods of the Copybook Headings said: "Stick to the Devil you know."

On the first Feminian Sandstones we were promised the Fuller Life
(Which started by loving our neighbour and ended by loving his wife)
Till our women had no more children and the men lost reason and faith,
And the Gods of the Copybook Headings said: "The Wages of Sin is Death."

In the Carboniferous Epoch we were promised abundance for all,
By robbing selected Peter to pay for collective Paul;
But, though we had plenty of money, there was nothing our money could buy,
And the Gods of the Copybook Headings said: "If you don't work you die."

Then the Gods of the Market tumbled, and their smooth-tongued wizards withdrew
And the hearts of the meanest were humbled and began to believe it was true
That All is not Gold that Glitters, and Two and Two make Four
And the Gods of the Copybook Headings limped up to explain it once more.

As it will be in the future, it was at the birth of Man
There are only four things certain since Social Progress began.
That the Dog returns to his Vomit and the Sow returns to her Mire,
And the burnt Fool's bandaged finger goes wabbling back to the Fire;

And that after this is accomplished, and the brave new world begins
When all men are paid for existing and no man must pay for his sins,
As surely as Water will wet us, as surely as Fire will burn,
The Gods of the Copybook Headings with terror and slaughter return!

”...white supremacist heteropatriarchal capitalism.”

There’s enough bullshit in those four words to fertilize Kansas.

Although....I gotta admit, if you were gonna try to fix a liberal's 'mind', Crazy Glue WOULD be the adhesive of choice!

The crybaby Left might as well do themselves in now, because Trump's going to win re-election.

Do they seriously think that the WORST CANDIDATE THEY COULD HAVE NOMINATED is going to beat the greatest president since Ronald Reagan?

Only by committing voter fraud on a grand scale and cheating like hell.

They've got nothing else and they know it. No wonder they are so desperate and depressed. Poor babies.
