April 9 // Oh, forever or so
In the interest of time — which depending on whom you listen to and the state of your health and your community, we may not have much of anymore — we’d like to offer a couple of suggestions, which should save everyone a lot of effort on social media.
Regardless of the headline, and regardless of your political leanings, just choose from the options below and post regularly. You'll be doing your part to sow discontent, reinforce blinders, destroy relationships and divide the nation. Admittedly, these tasks need fortitude and resilience, and should not be taken lightly but together, we can make it happen!
Ready? Here you go –
HEADLINE TRUMP HEADLINE ADMINISTRATION HEADLINE TRUMP HEADLINE
YOUR POST: Trump’s an idiot! He’s going to kill us all! VOTE HIM OUT!!
HEADLINE TRUMP HEADLINE ADMINISTRATION HEADLINE TRUMP HEADLINE
YOUR POST: Thank God for Trump! He’s going to save us. FOUR MORE YEARS!!
If this sounds a little extreme, think of it this way:
The world – not just our nation – is going through an unprecedented time of pandemic + instant communication of same, taking a variety of sizes and shapes: memes, graphics, links, quotes. [Notice this does not indicate that this instant communication of information is valid and proven; just that it exists.]
If this is the end of society as we know it, and how we interact, how we communicate, how we basically live with each other for the several weeks, months, whatever it takes:
here are a few questions to ponder:
1. Do you want to spend the better part of it shrieking endlessly about Donald Trump?
2. Is that who you want to exclusively (or almost exclusively) occupy space in your head?
And if your answers to these questions were yes, coupled with explanations that go something like this:
Yes, it's my obligation because he has to be stopped! He is destroying our nation and the planet! He is evil and soulless! He is the worst leader in history! He is a liar who is putting us all in danger! He is a scumbag and a narcissist who deserves a fate worse than death! People need to know!
- OR -
Yes, it's my obligation because he has NOT ONCE been treated fairly by the media! He is being attacked every single day! He inherited the problems he has to correct! He is doing a phenomenal job that needs to be recognized! He is the only one willing to speak the truth! People need to know!
... Then read on. Do your "duty" if that's what you believe. Never let it be said we're not fans of passionate beliefs at TWAN. (Although we see a difference between passion and maniacal, myopic outrage.)
In closing, here are a couple of final questions to ponder:
Now who is the narcissist?
You’re welcome.

In closing, here are a couple of final questions to ponder:
- Do you really believe that if YOU stop posting your attacks, the President and his administration will be re-elected by an unprecedented margin?
- Do you really believe that if YOU stop posting your support, the President and his administration will be spectacularly defeated by an unprecedented margin?
- That whatever happens, it will be your fault for not posting every single thought or scrap of thought you have about every single move coming out of the government?
- That people will suddenly become clueless, without your voice informing them about what to think and how to think and what to do?
Now who is the narcissist?
You’re welcome.
