DO people realize why the man in the frog suit so utterly disabled ICE?
Absurdity is the only viable weapon we've been allowed to hold. Fascism cannot understand what it has no representation for in it's frame. What cannot be represented in their frame can only appear threatening. Since it's obviously a big non-threatening frog, this causes confusion.
CONFUSION IS EVIDENCE THAT ONE'S MIND HAS COME IN CONTACT WITH REALITY.
Once one has the capability of changing their frame of mind to match this new evidence, they have the capability to then judge personally if what they are doing is right or wrong.
You want an answer? Tristan Tzara, the founder of Dada, already gave it to you. Introduce nonsense (e.g., "The dialectic is a grilled cheese sandwich") to short-circuit the mechanism which fascism operates on: stabilizing past beliefs over truth, controlling the narrative, non-questioning authority, doing without thinking... It is clear to me that fascists feel threatened by what they do not understand and have lost the ability to literally question themselves.

📞 Ring ring.
“Hello. Yes. I’m calling to report a narrative malfunction.”
They ask: “What is the issue?”
You say: “Reality has breached containment.”
They say: “Can you describe it?”
You say: “A frog is defeating an empire with pure unfiled paperwork.”
They say: “Sir/Ma’am, please remain calm.”
You say: “I’m two scarves. Calm is impossible. Calm is a single scarf fantasy.”
They say: “What do you want?”
You say: “I want you to notice the part of your mind that knows this is insane.”
They say: “That’s not helpful.”
You say: “Correct. Helpfulness is a trap. I’m offering freedom.”

Der Kompass, der nur zur Mitte zeigt,
dreht sich wild im quadratischen Raum,
und führt dich, treu wie ein irrer Hund,
immer tiefer in dein eigenes Niemandsland.

When you hear the brass kazoos playing, come from over the horizon, you will know that freedom still buzzes on.
Drop the fruit baskets.
Gift them timeshares.
Serenade them with duck farts.
Become two scarves in a trench coat whispering into a teacup.
Trap the ghost of Arnold Palmer in a chamber pot.
Become Bigfoot.
Immanentize the Christian Eschaton.
Read children's story's to kids at the Library.
Become addicted to absurdity.
Rewrite the bibe using only puns.
Argue that all statements which are relative are self-contradictory.
Begin now, don't hesitate, pick up the phone, operators are standing by. Not because they chose to, but because the order and connection of causes required it.
Die Treppe, die im Kreis hinauf ins Loch führt,
hat Stufen aus Luft und ein Geländer aus Wunsch.
Du fällst mit jedem Schritt, den du gehst,
und landest genau dort, wo der Abgrund beginnt.

Absurdeinta on, että jos Vorssan dadan hukkalämpöä aletaan myöhemmin käyttää kaukolämpönä, tätä voi kutsua RED III:n kikkailun vuoksi vihreän siirtymän hankkeeksi. Siis keskusta, joka saattaa louhia kryptoja ja tarvita varavoimaa yli 300 generaattorin verran. Niitä on koekäytettävä säännöllisesti, joten keskus tulee käyttämään myös fossiilienergiaa. Se kai on sit sitä vihreetä siirtymää.
