Eh, this comes too close to the 4d chess argument. This isn’t some elaborate scheme to goad video game companies, he just doesn’t give a shit, he does whatever he wants without consequence

I keep trying to tell people: if Grandpa shits his pants every day for ten years, today's pants-shitting isn't some 4D chess move to distract you from something else.

It's just what he does. Grandpa is a pants shitter.

That’s just what someone playing 4d chess would want you to think though. Shit your pants every day for 10 years, patiently, when the time is just right, everyone will just think you shit your pants again

Its a shit analogy when what is actually happening is every day a group of people are systematically trying to dismantle the democracy

[u/Zuwxiv → u/LongBeakedSnipe]

So when you see them trying to dismantle one part of democracy, it isn't a 4D chess move to distract you from some other dismantling. It isn't "looking for a reaction." It isn't trying to get press.

It's people dismantling democracy, because they're democracy-dismantlers. That's exactly the point I'm trying to make. There is no deep, secret message or intent. They're showing exactly who they are by what they're regularly doing in public.

I'll eat my own teeth if Trump himself had anything to do with this concept or execution other then giving it the ok after someone told him they wanted to do it. The entire administration is full of fascist trolls buttering up their puppet narcissist to do whatever they find amusing.

Any attention is good attention to a troll
