She had a similar cartoon some years ago on what was being done with a global warming strawman.

Maybe we can run a counter scam on the wingers using the non-thing named in the cartoon: Quietly field the buzz that there's an Egalitarian Wave Theory which is the newer and improved CRT which skirts the laws passed to prevent systemic racism from being uttered by teachers and students.

Then, once the inflammation of the right white fright outrage nears peak cray cray calmly say they don't know what they're talking about to the point they don't even know how to spell it, as it's actually Eagletarian Wave Theory.

I don't know... Simply the fact I exist is all I've ever needed to completely own the right. To the point they lay awake at night fretting about me. No effort what-so-ever. So, maybe I've gotten lazy.

...and the media would follow their lead, as usual. "We have to cover it. It's out there."

We already point out how they don't know what they're talking about. Has it worked at all?

Being effortlessly proclaimed the focal point of hate by the right is one of my greatest achievements in life. And, quite frankly, it was so easy.

I go about my life. Doing my stuff, going to my places, being with my people and all around me there's a white hot glow of hate. It's down right boring.

It feels unearned, if you know what I mean.

Maybe, if I occasionally mouthed the word, "socialism", I would feel better.

You ever notice these "moderates" normally come out and say liberals go too far as blunt as possible, yet it's crickets or, as Susan Collins says, "concerned" when conservatives ramp it up to 100?

Makes you think for a second. . .until you realize moderates are just conservatives with a smile.
