All the calls for Canada as the 51st State, the actions of the state-sponsored militias running around Minnesota (and beyond), the rambling speech mixing up Greenland and Iceland, and the persisting sabre-rattling about the alleged necessity of the annexation of the former “for security reasons“, are merely a smokescreen to try to make us forget about… well…
…you know what.
And since we’re on that subject, let me remind you of an old Russian joke that seems to have resurfaced recently.
I can’t imagine why.
Every morning, a guy stops at the same newsagent and picks up the newspaper, looks at the front page, and then puts the paper back down without buying it.
One day the vendor asks what he’s doing.
The man tells him that he’s looking for an obituary.
The vendor says “Those are at the back of the paper, Comrade.”
The man replies, “Not the one I’m looking for.”
It’s really just who goes first: him or the planet.
