This is Elmo we’re talking about. You know, Mr. “The Great Replacement is a plot by the Jews to eliminate the white race”. As his son murdered by the woke-mind virus daughter put it, Mr. “weird 14-words breeder shit”. [14 Words](https://www.adl.org/resources/hate-symbol/14-words) for those unfamiliar with the term. Miscegenation is a sin against god is pretty much his ‘point’.

That Black men are scary and will gang bang you. The white guy in the second picture is not nearly as eager.

So the take away is that Elmo wishes he could be the blonde in the top pic.

There really is nothing to be gained by trying to analyze Elno’s ochre matter (which used to be grey, but it got worse). At this point, a very high daily dose of thorazine is his (our) only hope.

There have been riots going on in the UK over the last two weeks by people on the far-right. The backstory is a 17 year old male born in Wales to parents from Rwanda and who grew up in a place called Southport went into a summer club where young girls were doing activities on a Taylor Swift theme and he started stabbing them and the adult running the club. Three young girls were killed. Because of the killer’s age his name was not immediately released into the press so people on social media started spreading around that he was an illegal immigrant, an asylum seeker, a Muslim, known to the security services and that sort of thing. Elon Musk’s Twitter has been a haven of these lies which is what led to the riots in which they started attacking shelters for refugees including trying to burn down one as well as attacking Mosques and also police officers. A judge allowed the name of the killer to be released before he turns 18 because of the rampant misinformation and lies being spread. But the damage was done and now those rioters being prosecuted for their criminal actions is being seen as persecution by the likes of Musk and far-right figures.

I was puzzled for a second, because Ann Landers’ pencil test was something completely different!

That makes me kind of sad, because in HS, there was one class where we decided to start throwing pencils into one guy’s big loose 'fro. The next week, he changed his hairstyle to a sort of wolfman jack look. But we had not heard of the “pencil test” at the time, we were just goofing off.

Good golly, paranoid racists are some weird freaks. If I hadn’t been told that top photo was depicting a porn film setup I would have guessed that the dialogue in it went something like this:

“Tee-hee, okay Bipsy, is it focused? Make sure to start recording just before they lift the couch!”

“Sorry miss, but our legal team at MuscleBuns Premium Movers is extremely strict about requiring that all furniture items have to be unoccupied when we’re moving them.”

I mean, I guess that scenario could be a setup for a porn film in its own right, but I’m still having a really hard time getting “scary” out of it. For one thing, look how all the guys changed into dazzlingly clean and tidy matching underwear for this consensual multi-partner sexual encounter! That is some gentlemanly behavior right there!

A possible take,  
_White women can be tricked in to becoming race traitors by Black men and their large penises._  
And the only thing that scares these folks more than women is large penises.

If you judged Elmo solely by his social media presence, you’d think saddo, incel edgelord and not a billionaire tycoon with a dozen crotch goblins of his own. He certainly is _special_.

Yes, that’s what a sane person sees. What they see is “These subhuman beasts are going to defile that pure innocent white woman and render her unfit for her God-ordained purpose as a breeding receptacle for white children and your wife/sister/daughter is next”.

It’s racism, fear of sexual inadequacy, lack of self-confidence, toxic masculinity, and all-consuming paranoia all rolled into one.

And the premise isn’t even quite as absurd as I initially supposed; apparently there [really are some moving firms that make a selling point of their employees looking sexy!](https://www.shirtlessmovers.com/hottest-movers) 😲

But… the guy on the right is wearing glasses?!? 🤔😵‍💫

I’m not questioning your interpretation, it just seems so bizarre to me that somebody can look at a “Short Back and Sides in New V-neck Undershirt and Serious Dark-rimmed Spectacles” stereotype and see a “Defiling Subhuman Beast” stereotype. Racist paranoia is a helluva drug.

Allow me to introduce you to another term that people who believe in The Great Replacement and the 14 Words like to use: [Day of the Rope](https://www.adl.org/resources/hate-symbol/day-rope).

It would appear that Elmo’s much-hyped live interview with Trump has already crashed and burned.

He claims a DDOS attack. Was…was the DDOS attack just an expected amount of listeners trying to join?
