    Every time I read “He was a communist, Elmo.” I can help but just laugh, it’s just hilarious.

      Yeah, MLK Jr was pretty clear about his position when he said that communism and Christianity are fundamentally incompatible. He was a socialist, which is a different thing. But let’s pretend that he said socialist instead of communist… Wouldn’t that make you kinda curious to know the details of what socialism is then? Because everybody says that King was a great man and helped achieve racial equality, so his ideology must not be as evil as everybody says, right?

      So if you’re young and maybe not super aware of politics and civics and everything, and you see this tweet in response to a general “Happy MLK Jr Day” tweet from Elmo, you’re gonna have questions and your Google results are gonna lead you to answers that reveal what a fucking clown show the John Birch society is.

      It’s petty, it’s factually inaccurate, and if chases young people to your opposition’s ideology. Plus picking on a literal Muppet is the kind of thing a lazy writer would write to show how villainous a character is. What a disaster of a tweet, and I’m thrilled to see it.

    Why talk about yourself like that?

    Elmo: “Ask a friend how they are feeling”

    This fucking nobody: “STOP DISCRIMINATION AGAINST WHITE PEOPLE”

    Only possible explanation for these responses: Elmo is the true alpha here, both Peterson and Taite were traumatized as children/teens when they came home from school one day and walked in on Elmo, fur-deep in their mum with their father huddled in the corner crying.

    This is the ONLY possible explanation for raging at a children’s puppet like this.

      Metaphorically that must be how they see the situation. Elmo and the culture Elmo represents have violated the culture that Peterson and Tate try to reestablish.

    “Tell Elmo how you feel today sweetie.”

    I HATE YOU ELMO!

    “Now, please tell Elmo why you feel that way. Use your words please.”
