Street Protests: When Infecting Others Is Called 'Wonderful, Bracing, and Noble of Heart' #Political
"Coughing" does not rhyme with "sobbing," he noted, and then wrote some apparently comedic poetry of his own about current events, about how "The White House harbors a would-be dictator / He's half-ignoramus (the other half hater)." This just sounds like bad Dr. Seuss.
Black people perishing — killed by police
Under the guise of protecting the peace.
One victim dies while taking a knee
An irony lost on no one but he
Who has found it convenient to further divide us
To rant and to sputter and not stand beside us.
And so in the midst of this countrywide misery
He just fans the flame on the Devil’s rotisserie.
Then came the part where Weingarten actually stated that mass protests that threaten to spread the coronavirus are "wonderful" and "noble," when normally the leftists think of red-hatted Trumpers at rallies infecting each other is the best kind of social Darwinism. But when the Left assembles, democracy flowers! Let's pick up where we left off:
Which leads to mass rallies to show our disgust
Ignoring our safety, to protest the unjust —
We know in our hearts that the plague is still there.
And we say with our presence we no longer care.
We’re out in the thousands, defying the brass.
Defying the truncheons, the bullets, the gas.
Masks have come off, and in our resistance-ing
We shout in close quarters, ignore social distancing.
It’s reckless, incautious, unwise and un-smart
And wonderful, bracing and noble of heart.
And maybe, just maybe, that’s at the core of this.
Telling the bastards we won’t take any more of this.
One can imagine very easily that by proclaiming the royal "We," Weingarten is saying he's been out in the streets protesting. Contributing your political prose at the offices of The Washington Post probably isn't satisfying enough.
