The left is trying to come to grips with its utter rejection, and its response to Donald Trump will be to fall back on an endless series of freakoutrages hyperbolic, unhinged, hack media-fueled spasms of faux moral panic every time he dares do anything.
Appoint someone to a job? Freak out its an outrage!
Go to dinner? Freak out its an outrage!
Actually keep promises made to the voters? Freak out its an outrage!
But it isnt going to work. Not anymore. Not with the form of the Destructor Hillary and the rest of super smart Team Smugfail chose. Freakoutrage fatigue is in effect. You can cry Wolf Blitzer all day long and nobody cares.
Its important to understand why liberals are so angry and so scared. They are angry because they believe they have a moral right to command us, apparently bestowed by Gaia or #Science or having gone to Yale, and we are irredeemably deplorable for not submitting to their benevolent dictatorship.
They are scared because they fear we will wage the same kind of campaign of petty (and not so petty) oppression, intimidation, and bullying that they intended to wage upon us.
And their fear tastes like sunshine puked up by a unicorn.
I was considering being magnanimous in our total victory, but that lasted until a bunch of loving, tolerant, peaceful anti-Trump demonstrators jumped my friend and hurt his dog. So now, their pain is my sugar, and I say lets spend the next four years having our coffee Sudden Impact-style.
You want to play the freakoutrage card? Go ahead, make my day.
Its the only practical tool they have left, secession being hard and scary when youre on the side that wets itself around guns. So instead they sow cultural chaos with the eager, slobbering cooperation of the dying mainstream media. Hence the nonstop series of post-defeat freakoutrages over each and every action undertaken by President-elect Trump oh, Im getting Matthewsian tingles down my leg just thinking of how much it hurts you libs to read those words!
But its a losers game. Freakoutraging is not a power move its a sign of weakness. Its weak because to work, it depends entirely on cooperation by us and by President-elect Trump theres that tingle again! We have to allow it to work. See, you libs cant make us do anything because we control everything. The Reid Rule is in effect, players, and were going to beat down liberalism like a Nordic-Trak beats down Harry.
Freakoutrage is manipulation, so it depends upon the credibility of the freakoutrager in the eyes of the freakoutragee. Do you see the problem? Because the freakoutragers are liberals amplified by the liberal mainstream media, theres a bit of a credibility gap in the eyes of us freakoutragees. Similarly yuge gaps include the Grand Canyon and the yawning chasm between Obamas self-regard and his accomplishments.
To work, the freakoutragee has to take the freakoutrage seriously Wow, I cant imagine that anyone would call the Attorney General appointee a white supremacist Klan lover without a really good reason. I shall be wary of this ruffian! But when you literally call everyone associated with Donald Trump a bigot, racist, sexist, Islamophobe, transphobe, and miscellaneousphobe including, by extension, the nearly 50% of Americans who voted for him over Harridan McHarpy then you lose your credibility. When you redefine bigotry to mean I dont like you, youve deprived the word of its bite.
Non-political people are watching, and when no one goosesteps over to their houses to throw them into Jesus camp with all the other people whose ancestors didnt hail from Dusseldorf, theyre going to figure out that your endless freakoutrages are all lies. When everybodys terrible, nobody is. Especially when the people you say are terrible really arent.
Freakoutrage need the cooperation of President-elect Trump (Ohhhh, baby, Im a-tinglin again!), and thats another reason youll fail. Freakoutrage is really a way you and your media fluffers try to train conservative leaders. You try to teach the Republican leader that if he does anything you dont approve of, youll scream and whine and then hell have to back down. Its a means of control, like a shock collar. And this works on a lot of Republicans, or used to: Oh no, the WaPo is angry! Quick, start #caring!
But The Donald? Nope. You have no heat because hes giving absolutely no damns.
Ditching the press to scarf a sirloin? WAAAAAA! Damns given: 0.
Appointing hardcore conservatives? WAAAAA! Damns given: 0.
Building the wall, repealing O-Care, SCOTUS Justice Willet? WAAAAA! Damns given: 0.
Youll be freaking out and the President will be eating a taco bowl and kicking it old school with his hot immigrant wife like a boss, penning and phoning Obamas miserable legacy into oblivion.
So libs, carry on with your freakoutrages. Please. Each one makes you weaker and us stronger. Everyone sees the truth behind your freakoutrage scam. Everyone sees the truth behind you. The audience of Hamilton didn't boo Pence. The cast didnt lecture Pence. The audience booed us. The cast lectured us. You libs hate us. Hate, not merely dislike. Hate. Your dream is a country without us, just like I predicted in my new book.
So your freakoutraging did do us one solid you helped remind us who our real enemy is. Its you. And we know it because you dorky, safety-pinned, not moving-to-Canada-like-you-promised freakoutragers keep telling us so.
Amen!
Good analogy.
Thanks - sometimes our experiences, even the embarrassing ones, are the best tool we have to learn and also to understand both faults and positive points in others. I have lots of experience being what not to be....
The freaks and snowflakes will soon tire of their own foolishness. The snowflakes will melt into irrelevancy. There will still be whiners and the freaks will just multiply to no avail.
Brings up an interesting point. Do you thing the libtards realize just how much they are enabling President-elect Trump? They are "crying wolf" at anyone and everyone associated with him.
Granted, they have been doing this for 8+ years, having completely diluted "racist" to a badge of honor, not a slur. Having worn the race card into ineffectual dust they are now expanding their go-to arsenal of vitriol and unfounded reflex-accusations. These too will soon become little more than a background drumbeat of liberal frustrations.
Back to the enabling part. What liberal socialists/fascists are really doing is a disservice not only to the people they attempt to slander, but to everyone. Suppose President-elect Trump were to appoint an adviser or two who actually did have worrisome characteristics? Who would know? How could anyone ever get that point across? Real cause for concern would be lost in the noise of all the liberal manufactured and exaggerated BS.
I realize that the modern liberal agenda is predicated upon pushing people to react with emotion rather than reason. Has been and will continue to be unless and until their ruling elite can come up with some better way to manipulate and sway their sheeple. But there is a downside to this approach - the gradual desensitization of the sheeple. Like a drug addict needing an ever stronger fix to get the same high, so too the power elite require ever more stronger words and emotions to induce the required levels of mistrust, envy, and even hate necessary to manipulate their minions. For far too long they have used unfounded slander not as a warning against leaders with poor character, but as a means or attempt to discredit those they don't agree with. (real accepting of diversity there, aren't they, but I digress)
Eventually, sooner for some, later for others, this wild hyperbole stops becoming persuasive and instead becomes theater of the absurd. I'm reasonably sure that when President-elect Trump is sworn into office that illegal immigrants are not going to spontaneously burst into flame; or that muslims aren't going to run lemming-like into the sea fleeing the Country. Women's nether regions aren't going to ... well, you see my point. But to hear some libtards tell it, these kinds of things and more are in store for us under a Trump Presidency. Too late libtards. When you loudly lament the sky is falling, I reach for the popcorn, not an umbrella.
Crying and Lying is not a winning strategy
Thank you for posting this from the writer and author. I read it aloud to my husband right now and then I bought his book. If his commentary is any indication it will be both insightful and funny.
The local NBC affiliate here still has their daily two minute Trump hate session.
HA! Good article.
Hey, whining losers,Trump will just go ahead & make things better for us without you!!!!"
Now I'm confused. Isn't widely known that libland has no winners or losers? Now they want to throw out the entire rulebook and install a system that they can win 100% of the time? Makes no sense...
the dogs bark, but the caravan goes on
Brace Yourself for Four Years of Nonstop Fake outrage.
There. Fixed it.
While “Conservatives” have only captured one institution-political-they have not even scratched the surface. The left still controls the all important media, academia, business, and what is said and done in our culture. The left never stops and never surrenders. We conservatives just talk. We need to start gaining control, “ORGANIZE” and fight back. There can be no compromise, no discussion, no expression of “different points of view.” There is no tolerance and no “big tent.”
E-v-e-r-y-b-o-d-y gets a trophy.
What they’re really freaking about — facing the real world. A world of responsibility. A world of boundaries. A world of consequences.
In a way I can’t blame them, since they were never groomed for anything. Reading about the ones in California who want to secede, I wondered — how will they run a country? They want a place that will take care of them. Maybe Canada will.
