Have You Noticed How Political Satire Has Become Public Policy Under Biden?

“Freedom is the freedom to say that two plus two make four. If that is granted, all else follows.” ― George Orwell, 1984

Each and every day we wake up asking ourselves if Joseph Robinette Biden Jr. is reading political satire columns on websites like The Babylon Bee and The Peoples Cube to get his next “Build Back Better” public policy idea.

Political satire is satire that specializes in gaining entertainment from politics and it has been used with subversive intent where political speech and dissent are forbidden by a regime.

Political satire is a very effective method of advancing political arguments where such arguments are expressly forbidden.

Today the truth is not only being censored, it is being forbidden. Freedom of speech is not just under assault in America but globally. You see government has learned that the first thing it must do is first stifle its opponents and second disarm them. They use propaganda, myths and lies to demonize, marginalize and finally silence political opposition.

Today truth is what politicians say it is. Today political truth and public policy has morphed into political satire.

But who is laughing, them or us?

We have been following the policies of Joseph Robinette Biden Jr. closely. It seems he’s America’s first Political-Satirist-In-Chief. But nobody but the Democrats, the legacy media and social media oligarchs are laughing.

BTW, who names their son Robinette, LOL?

Political Satire is the New Resistance

George Orwell, in his dystopian novel 1984 wrote, “The choice for mankind lies between freedom and happiness and for the great bulk of mankind, happiness is better.”

Are political satirists now taking the lead in telling the truth to make mankind happy? Or, are political satirists becoming the New Resistance?

Here’s a stark contrast between an actual U.S. Army recruitment video and a political satire U.S. Army recruitment video. Which is the truth?

THIS IS ONE IN A SERIES OF ACTUAL U.S. ARMY RECRUITMENT ADS – THIS VIDEO IS TITLED ‘EMMA’:

THIS BABYLON BEE POLITICAL SATIRE U.S. ARMY RECRUITMENT AD IS TITLED ‘SLAY QUEEN’:

Do you get the point now?

We believe that websites like The Babylon Bee and The Peoples Cube are taking the fight to those in power. We believe that their biting commentaries are taking its toll on the political elite and they don’t like it one damn bit.

What’s interesting is that Volodymyr Zelenskyy, the President of Ukraine, was an actor and comedian before his election. Volodymyr understands the power of language. He is a master of the “political punchline.” When Biden offered to fly Zelenskyy out of the Ukraine just before the Russian invasion he said, “I need bullets, not a ride!”

Watch:

This statement by Volodymyr Zelenskyy has become a motto that immediately went viral.  I need bullets, not a ride became bumper stickers, is printed on shirts and on posters.

Don’t tell me comedians and satirists don’t get it.

Political Satire and Public Policy

Let’s look at some recent articles on political satire sites and you answer this question: Is this satire that’s now public policy under the Biden administration.

So, after reading these political satire articles are your laughing, crying or both?

The Bottom Line

The reason we wrote this column is because of an article we published titled, “Biden’s FEMA: In case of a nuclear explosion ‘maintain social distancing’ and ‘wear a mask’.”

In the article we stated:

Just when you thought the Biden administration couldn’t get further down the Covid rabbit hole it digs deeper. Biden’s Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) on February 25th, 2022 put out new guidance on what to do should America come under a nuclear attack.

The first scary thing is that FEMA wants us to be prepared for a nuclear attack. The second scary thing is how we should respond to it when we, like the Ukrainians, seek shelter from the nuclear attack.

FEMA warns that in case of a nuclear explosion:

“Try to maintain a distance of at least six feet between yourself and people who are not part of your household. If possible, wear a mask if you’re sheltering with people who are not a part of your household.”

Many of our readers thought this article was political satire. We had to send them the link to the Ready.gov website on nuclear explosions which states:

Stay inside for 24 hours unless local authorities provide other instructions. Continue to practice social distancing by wearing a mask and by keeping a distance of at least six feet between yourself and people who not part of your household.

So, are you laughing now?

Mark Twain wrote, “A lie can travel half way around the world while the truth is putting on its shoes.”

We contend that Biden’s political myths travel half way around the world thousands of times before we the people actually are told the truth.

Gird your loins because we have three more years of Biden’s lies, myths and political theatre.
