How To Fight Back Against MAGA Extremists [1]

I turned on MSNBC this Sunday morning, only to see a show being rebroadcast from a recent previous evening program. It wasn’t a problem, or so I thought, as I hadn’t seen the previous airing of the show. It was an eye-opener with details of a recent campaign by MAGA extremists to send mail to election workers — some containing fentanyl and other unknown powdered substances still in the analysis stages — with a message — STOP ELECTIONS NOW! To further the implications of this campaign targeting multiple states, Donald Trump posted angry words for these under seige election workers with a visual of the Capitol in flames and his message, “I’m Comin Back To Clean Up This Mess."

The FBI and The United States Postal Service Inspectors are combining in efforts to identify the sender(s), as it may be an organized conspiracy of Domestic Terrorists or some lone wolf akin to the caught and imprisoned Uni-Bomber, who is now deceased. I also noted this morning in a separate article that Marjorie Taylor Greene had received a phone call with death threats to her, her staff and family, which closed down her office until the caller was apprehended and arrested by the FBI. Funny how those same radicals who target the FBI with ‘defunding’ or doing away with them altogether, depend on the FBI to rescue them from left-wing radicals that are just as misguided in violent threats as the MAGA crowd encouraged by ex-President Donald Trump.

It’s obvious that our Democracy is being attacked from a multitude of sources, but make no mistake — it’s primarily from MAGA Extremists. To further complicate the landscape, the warning signs are already detailed of how both parties will have access to AI to promulgate mis & disinformation, which was identified in a recent Popular Science article, Can AI Manipulate A Presidential Election?In the article, there is mention of how in 2016, prior to our AI infiltration explosion, "A third of pro-Trump Twitter traffic during the first presidential debate of 2016 was generated by bots, according to an Oxford University study from that year.” Many of these postings were from foreign election entities interfering with our democracy.

The fact that America builds its reuptation upon the questionable notion that it is ‘The Land Of The Free’, makes most of its problems all the more unsolvable, from claiming citizens are ‘Free’ to own weapons of war to kill random innocent members of society due to our forefathers decisons on how to deal with ‘guns’ (muskets were the weapons in use back then, not semi-automatic killing machines). Our 2nd Amendment, which gives citizens the right to bear arms, is used by the Supreme deciders of our government to somehow justify that citizens can own these weapons, just in case they decide to one day overthrow the government and end Democracy in the process.

I have dreamed up a solution to solve the problem of MAGA Extremism. It takes away some aspects of Freedom that America claims is essential to our form of government, but based on recent events like the reaction to the overturning of the 50 year precedent of Roe v Wade, it certainly seems possible the majority of Americans will be on board with 'throwing out the baby with the polluted bath water’. Let’s idntify a location were we can give over one state to these MAGA Extremists where once they are identified as the perpetrator of Crimes Against Democracy, they will be banished to this location. Owing to its infamous reputation for the deads under the banner of Florida Man, I nominate Florida as that state.



I would have specified Key West to isolate these miscreants even further, but I’m fearful of what they might do to the cat population there, as well their sheer numbers which might even overflow the entire state of Florida. There is an alternative within that state - the Everglades might prove to be a suitable holding place. It’s even possible for some who might get lost there to feed the Alligator population, thus making their stay only temporary with a steady flow of replacements. Another idea is to ‘deport’ Climate Deniers to Miami, where they might eventually be swept out to sea if Climate Change proves to be real. I would make sure James Woods gets lost in the Woods, although a trip to Germantown’s ‘Black Forest' seems more apropos. Trump can stay imprisoned in Mara-a-Lago with no water, fuel or electricity.

Lest anyone believe this to be a ‘Modest Proposal’, I SWIFTly deny that I meant anything quite as serious here!
