Believe it or not, I’m fairly new to Twitter. I still don’t get the #s or the @s as much as most people. I’m seeing shit pop up while I write this… sorta crazy but whatever…
So, I went down a rabbit hole on Twitter about Congressional insurrectionist Lauren Broebert… I spelled her name wrong when I wrote about it and immediately was corrected by a friend on Facebook who wanted me to get it right.
Get it right.
I’ve learned a lot, I have to say, about accountability and social media.
And how to be a good person.
A responsible person.
So, anyway, I corrected Ms.Breitbart’s name and, for the first time, looked at hundreds of tweets from Twitterees posting that her mother was this bullhorn lady who was part of a mob that was out to overthrow our government, giving instructions to fellow terrorists on where to find Mike Pence or Nancy Pelosi and kill them during the siege.
I’m not sure if the guy with the horns and the beaver head knew her.
Or maybe one of the zip tie guys did…but he was arrested today, with his mom who was there with him. Nothing says maternal like a nice Oedipal afternoon coup.
Anyway, I saw dozens of pictures comparing Mrs.Browbeat with the bullhorn instructor lady… they look very much alike. Their voices sound alike.
It was very possibly true that it was her mother…confirmed by the press to not only be there, but with conflicting accounts of where she was…add to that deleted Facebook posts from Margaret White-Broebert and the communications director abruptly quitting today, and it’s quite plausible.

If what I’ve just written seems fucking crazy and weird and surreal that’s because it is. It is. It’s real 2021.
But it’s deadly serious at the same time.
Deadly like dead police officers.
Serious like unimaginably savage brutality.
But also serious like an idiot carrying a “Don’t Tread on Me” flag to a coup and getting trampled to death.
I think so many of us want to be “not like them” and “rise above” or we’ll “turn into them”.
Dot every “i”…. no mistakes, no conjecture.
Wait.
Wait until all the facts are out and it’s proven.
I’m here to let you know that’s simply not true.
We don’t turn into them.
The fact that I’m even writing this indicates, to me at least, I have enough of a conscience to say I was probably(?) wrong about her mom being a pink hatted traitor with a bullhorn.
But, here’s what I learned…and this is real.
She is a despicable racist… horrible. Videos that she posted are just vile.
She raised a despicable daughter.
Had I not climbed down the Twitterhole I wouldn’t have known that… well, the daughter part for sure I already knew.
Here’s what else I learned.. it was pretty delightful seeing the pixie treasonist dragged on the very platform she was brainwashing other people with.
Hundreds of people saying “is that your mom?”
It was lovely.
She needs a little bit of that medicine.
I’ve learned it takes a bit of the low road to educate yourself on how to combat the disinformationmania that envelopes millions of Americans now. The high road is a myth.
There isn’t one person I know who is so baked into a more liberal ideology who would, like in realness, go down and march to the Capitol on the orders of a game show host and try to overthrow the government, beat police officers senseless, and pull down their pants and take a hot shit on the floor.
I think a failure of imagination left many people unprepared for 1/6/21.
I saw it coming.
Something horrible.
I’ve seen a lot of things coming for a while….both good and bad.
I guess my imagination is a part of that.
Most of the stuff I thought in real time during the siege will be proven, some already has. I’m sorta accurate. And far from perfect.
Go back and read what I’ve written on Facebook if you dare.
Notice the dates.

I’ve emerged from the hole. I’ve seen the dark side people, and I survived it.
I’m ok. Really.
I feel good, a bit dazed, but maybe just a bit more prepared for the insanity to come tomorrow.
