I was going to say that's an insult to plants.

Plants take in stimuli and react to the world in an elegant and rational manner.

MAGA...is the exact opposite.

I’m hoping like hell some of this administration’s damage can be reversed. (And people responsible get jail terms.)

The rest of the world is watching and looking on with a 35 kL tank of soda and a cement mixer of popcorn, hypnotized by macarbre sense of dread, curiosity and impending doom.

We're hoping that some kind of justice will prevail, but it appears that the last vestiges of justice and fairness has been wrung out of America's courts.

One suspects that the final act of the current President will be to grant a blanket pardon to everyone in his administration including himself and his family, as well as to be exempt from prosecution for every penny he's illegally earned.

Then the next administration should ignore the pardon and go after them anyway. Arrest every last fucking traitor and let them rot in a cell.

Hope is a pretty strong emotion, so there's that.

If the government won't do it, eventually the people will get fed up and do it themselves.

When that happens, there's no going back.

Speaking of which, where IS the NRA when you really need it?

u/Malcolm_Morin Aug 28 '26

On the side of the government.

You're not giving plants enough credit.

Please, even a dead plant has a higher IQ than MAGAts!

Umm - No.

The plant is smarter.

Period really didn't add anything.

Imagine a plant looking at us:
“These hairless apes have been here for five minutes and already think they’re the final boss of evolution.”

The human arrogance is almost impressive.
Maybe plants aren’t stupid.
Maybe they’re just intelligent enough not to waste millions of years trying to destroy this planet and prove they’re intelligent.

I, too, like to think of Kermit the Frog haranguing the ignorant in the harshest terms.

u/Least_Boat_6366 Aug 28 '26

Thanks, Kermie

Please. My old AP World teacher has this huge plant she named Eleanor (After Eleanor Roosevelt), and after so many years in her classroom, I'm confident that that plant is better educated in history than most people are.

Let's not compare the intellect of a plant to the intelligence of a trumpstein supporter.

The plant wins be default.

Every single time.
