It is so a real airplane!


What follows is from Brad Reed at Raw Story via Alternet.

"President Donald Trump this week boasted of delivering 'F-52' jets to the Norwegian government - however, it turns out there is no such thing as an F-52.

"As the Washington Post reports, F-52 jets are fictional planes that are only found in the video game 'Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare.'"

This raises the question, of course, as to whether or not da Trump is living in the real world or in the world of video games and reality shows.  His cavalier attitude toward the use of nuclear weapons is not only a sign of a deranged human being but of a human being that cannot clearly distinguish what happens in the video game, "Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare," and the reality of life on this planet in the year 2018. 

Thus, he's oblivious to the danger represented by the fact that there is a real person, also as mentally deranged as he is, who is the leader of the people of North Korea.  This man-child is without a moral compass, is prone to impulsive actions no matter the consequence, and is easy manipulated by insults.

That last sentence is an exact description of Donald Trump.  And those "advanced fighter aircraft in service of the United States of America," the F-52s, are not going to save him or us because 1) THEY DON'T EXIST, and 2) if we engage in a nuclear war it won't take long before there is nothing left to save on this entire planet!

And the Republican Party refuses to do anything about their moron in the Oval Office.  They would rather destroy the earth than give up one smidgen of their power or position!

The Problem with Lemmings


There's some old mythology which claims that lemmings (small, hamster-like rodents) will follow a leader en-masse over a cliff to their deaths.  It seems this is not true but sometimes myths serve a purpose such as detailed in this wonderful cartoon above.

I'm not sure of the source, but I believe this cartoon was in the comment section of an article on Crooks & Liars.
