Wasn't even listening to what she was saying!

ETA went back to listen to her comments. She is pretty damn funny.
And spot on.

And there actually are a few real life examples to choose from. I'll leave to the reader to fill in the names.

They're willfully stupid. That's what makes them jerks.

Most of the time, jerks are jerks not because they're mentally ill, but because they choose to be jerks.

It's rude and just plain wrong to assert that people behaving badly do so because they have a mental illness.

Perhaps if we had an uprising, talking the capital building, demanding TFG be indicted, forcing TPB to get off their comfortable asses and finally punish that SOB and his minions. History shows there's comparatively little personal risk in storming the capital, hunting down and threatening the lives of congresspersons. Literally none, if you're a ringleader.

Why do you think it is stupid? I think it was totally appropriate.

Comedy can be the great equalizer. If done properly, it cuts to the reality of the situation like a scalpel.

Why do you think Jesters have existed throughout most of Humanity's reign - because they really do speak Truth to Power.
