Loopy Loop


“Things fall apart, the center cannot hold.” — Yeats

Aberrant actions seem to be instigating aberrant actions. It’s a feedback loop that turns on itself. The Squad says something loopy about the Mexican border and then some nut job attacks a migrant processing center ... ending up in the morgue. Which, of course, creates a traffic jam of C-list celebs trying to be first on Twitter to condemn, in flowery language, this attack ... somehow blaming it all on Trump ... or climate change. This in turn causes a bunch of activists to replace the American flag at an ICE center with a Mexican flag ... spawning more rah-rah support from The Squad. Trump then suggests that these radicals might fix the problems in their hellhole homelands before trying to fix America. Then things really heat up as de Blasio suggests that Nazi Germany is upon us. And all hell really breaks loose when the Washington Post next claims that Jeffery Epstein was sleeping with Chelsea Clinton and probably fathered her children! Oh, maybe not ... but don’t be surprised. Anything and everything is now game in this loopy loop of our social media mania.
