Opening scene: Masses of scruffy left wing fanatics racing through the Washington, D.C. monuments of freedom as if in a frantic search to find a private place to wet their pants. All carrying signs of anxiety and doom. Agreeing only on not agreeing on why they are marching. Torching fires and damaging cars so as to accentuate whatever wrongs they imagine. “The end is near.” The Washington Monument, the Lincoln Memorial and the Supreme Court as their witnesses. It’s wondrous theater.

A camera switch to the burning halls of a Berkley College, for a closeup of an assault by a grown “student” on an innocent bystander, setting an example, I guess. Criminal assault on a young girl that could have resulted in permanent eye damage. Do you realize how difficult either of these video shots would be to produce from scratch? This is wonderful Kabuki. Tragic, yet somehow humerus in a sad way. Imagine students burning down their own school. Imagine a grown man trying to destroy a young girls eyes. Who says there is nothing interesting on TV anymore.

Are left-wing liberals trying to teach us “deplorables” the value of free speech and to embrace diversity? I wonder where they learned their values and their teaching techniques? I wouldn’t miss this greatest comedy/tragedy for anything.
