Love this letter from Twitter's #SecondCivilWarLetters


?s=19



Dearest wife,
Quick thinking saved my platoon today from the Red Hats as we erected a barrier out of Hillary’s e-mails, since they still can’t seem to get over them. War is Hell.

Dearest husband,

We’ve trapped the MAGAts in our local library, turning it into a torture chamber. We’ve forced reading comprehension textbooks& grammar lessons 24/7. The screams are unbearable. Then we diagram sentences. I am a sadist. War is brutal.

It’s Day 2 of the #SecondCivilWar. My comrades and I have set up camp in a library. There is absolutely no chance they will find us here.

Love,
Sam

Dearest Mother,
How I miss the cool dampness of my basement bedroom, the piping hot Pizza rolls you'd bring to me- the women here in the cities are very mean; how I wish you were here to tell me I am your big soldier boy.


The pic with the Tweet is the heavy young man dressed in a confederate outfit and holding their flag of southern treason with his face turned away from a woman giving him the finger.

My dearest Charlotte,
Wonderful news of today’s attack on Colonel Coulter. Armed only with cloves of garlic and wooden stakes, we read Langston Hughes to her over loudspeakers until she burst into flames. We advance on Daytona tomorrow, taking light beer.

Was there actually a Trumptard that comically ignorant?

What am I talking about, of course there was, is, going to be. These poor souls have finally found their cult leader, someone stupid enough to look up to as their grammatical guru......Donald J. Trump.

Someone should tell him that his heroes were eating acorns and grass by the time they hoisted the white flag of surrender.

Dear ones,
I joined the grammar soldiers trying to take literacy hill. We were met by hordes of missing apostrophes, commas, misspelled words and those unable to read for context. We are saddened but take comfort in our worthless liberal arts degrees. #secondcivilwarletters

I fear if we don’t win this, the future of the word “you’re” is at stake.

I think it was the 7th Libtard Battalion (could be mistaken, but you get the pic) making an assault on Huckabee Hill, etc. One commenter said to be careful on Kellyanne Ridge, the bullsh&it was really thick up there, people were suffocating in it.


God, who KNEW civil wars could be so much FUN??!?

Four score and seven hours ago, amandablount2 brought forth on this platform, a new meme conceived in humor, and dedicated to the proposition that we need to laugh.
#secondcivilwarletters

1
Now we are engaged in a fake civil war, testing whether our memetics, so hashtagged, so funny, can get us through.
We are memeing on the battlefield of that war.
#secondcivilwarletters
2
Even though senators have forsaken this great nation for Moscow, and next year might be the St. Petersburg Address, we cannot surrender our humor.
The battle has has been joined, but not yet won.
#secondcivilwarletters
3
The Fake Civil war is but one symptom of a conspiratorial RWNJ.
But we have come together to battle in cyberspace.
This great nation, divided, is still a government of the people, by the people, and worth voting for.
It shall not perish quietly.
