Culturally revealing irony about the Lamestream's Trump versus Liz Cheney firing squad lie

Murderous fools who should be shot?

 

The following political tempest kept some Americans amused (or outraged) for a few hours the last couple of days.

 

ZeroHedge summarized the inane tumult like this — my additions in italics:

 

 

After the MSM [mainstream media] spent the day in histrionics peddling the falsehood that Trump said Liz Cheney should face a firing squad, - when he was simply calling her a chickenhawk - CNN panelist Jonah Goldberg offered a mea culpa, and has retracted his claim that Trump called for Cheney's execution.

 

This is going to make the decision by Arizona attorney general Kris Mayes . . . to investigate Trump's remarks look even more idiotic.

 

While discussing Cheney with Tucker Carlson, Trump said:

 

"She's a radical war hawk. Let's put her with a rifle standing there with nine barrels shooting at her, ok? Let's see how she feels about it, you know, when the guns are trained on her face.

 

"You know they're all war hawks when they're sitting in Washington in a nice building saying 'oh gee, let's send 10,000 troops right into the mouth of the enemy."

 

[To this, ZeroHedge appended a bunch of social media comments that illustrated the back and forth battle that pitted Trump's alleged evil against liberals' self-satisfied clarion good.]

What was lost in this trumped-up rage . . .

 

. . . the fuse having been lighted by eager-to-pounce lying-leftist stooges — is the reality that Liz's father, former vice president Dick Cheney, had initiated actual slaughters of humanity that Liz essentially advocates continuing.

 

If literal justice were really to be done, both Cheneys — and the entirety of American Neocon Ilk — would be tried and executed for Nuremberg-like crimes and conspiracies against humanity.

 

 

The moral? — We can, from decades of recent American history, conclude that . . .

 

. . . missing absolutely core moral and strategic points, to virtually any alleged societal and security problem, is the most fundamental of American ways.

 

Witness, for instance, the United States' enthusiastically provided material and military support for Zionist Israel's continuing genocide in Gaza and Lebanon.

 

The phrase — 'debrained by propaganda and immorally clueless' — describes American political culture.

 

We are, in effect, a Devils' Circus in perpetual romp.
