It is almost impossible to be too immoral when mocking the British Left here in the year of our Lord’s birth in 2025. Yes, it’s been for a while, but when the folks had to believe Joe Biden and Kamala Harris have brains, things really went off. Anyone may fall for that kind of forced fantasy.  ,

This is especially painful for me. I’ve been using absurdism as my main weapon in my humorous arsenal to parody anyone or anything since I first set up a joke about 43 years ago. It wasn’t difficult for me to find a crazy way to make fun of people for the majority of my profession. In those days, I was strangeer than everyone else.  ,
Therefore, particularly in Lefty Land, things got weirder than I am. I haven’t actually adjusted to that. As most of you can imagine, being regular — or more regular than half the country, anyhow— is off-brand for me. I didn’t say that I’m a lover.  ,
We have all had a lot of fun since last November’s election, which required left-leaning people to immediately support President Trump after decades of disclosing who he was in the same way as Adolf Hitler, Benito Mussolini, Josef Stalin, and Pol Pot. I’ve been cutting back on alcohol and caffeine recently, so I can attest that Trump 47’s observation about the absence of a totalitarian tyrant vibe is in good taste.  ,
A far-left release that claims President Trump should imitate an infamous authoritarian psycho would be the proof that the universe has no plans to become un-weird anytime soon.  ,
The American Prospect, a liberal magazine, published a Monday content with the following headlines:

What Trump Can Know About NIH Funding from Hitler.
Short, try to make up anything more whacky than that. You doesn’t. I didn’t. A man who believes he is a purple dragon male stripper because he has been drinking heavily since LBJ as president is unable to do so. In an effort to out-crazy the crazies, you might also experience an odd orthopedic injury.  ,
But delay — it gets the worst kind of better. The heading reads:” Yet the Führer knew to help European science, and not just for war. Why is Trump trying to destroy America’s excellent studies institutions”?
Not surprisingly, the writer is ranting through his post-election SSRI/Prilosec concoction about Trump’s attempts to destroy the economic spend that is the lifeblood of the national bureaucracy:  ,
The National Institutes of Health announced on Friday that it would only pay 15 % of all research grants ‘ overhead. Overhead covers everything from the value of conducting research laboratory to the cost of paying for grant programs to administrative salaries to the cost of submitting patent applications.
The typical costs has been running at about 26 percentage, and at some top research institutes such as Harvard, Yale, and Johns Hopkins, it is over 60 percentage. Additionally, the administration intends to reduce the National Science Foundation’s revenue by at least two-thirds.
NIH and NSF are a large portion of why the U. S. is the world’s leader in science and technology. In 2023, NIH distributed about$ 35 billion through about 50, 000 grants to over 300, 000 researchers. Nine billion of this was behind. These universities will be unable to do research due to shrinking behind.

The article doesn’t go into detail about why overhead costs are at these, ahem, “great research universities” ( great research universities ). Democrats not even consider the possibility that there might be spend in the national government in spite of the criticism that President Trump and Elon Musk are receiving for the outstanding function that the Department of Government Effectiveness is doing. They are so determined to flee the individuals they were elected to represent.  ,
The attitude of The American Prospect is a stupid,” If that’s how much they’re spending, that must be how many they need”, strategy. The author is an uninformed dimwit, which makes him a great proggie. Oh, he’s even the co-founder of The American Prospect.  ,
Additionally, there’s the fact that the game of educational grants isn’t always driven by the most noble of intentions, especially when it comes to climate change research. That’s great company for both NIH and NSF. If I were going to do the DOGE thing, I would remind them that funding for everything else might be the same if they cut back on their spending by eliminating the false science climate change research that has been proven to be false.  ,
Up to de Führer. It’s a bit of a turning point to go from” LITERALLY HITLER IS GOING TO SEND US ALL TO CAMPS!!!”! to,” You know, this fella should be more like Hitler”. Gosh, it’s almost as if they’re telling us that they were full of spend goods all along.

British leftists are now more than ever both illiterate and unserious. They are very active disenfranchising themselves with this kind of nonsense because they don’t need a strongman authoritarian to do this. Come motivate them to continue to do it.  ,
