What Happened To All The Creepy Clowns?

By Mesomorph   via The Burning Platform

Remember the creepy clown psy-op during the 2016 US presidential election? Sure you do. It was late September and despite an abundance of actual news we were bombarded with stories about the sudden proliferation of creepy clown sightings. It was like they were coming out of some demonic hibernation. Every television network, local and national.
I hate clowns as much as the next guy. I’m cool with rodeo clowns and birthday clowns because I see them as humans dressed up like clowns for a side gig. Underpaid while assaulted. I personally would rather take my chances getting knocked around in a barrel by an irate bull than enduring countless foot-stomps and red nose tug & snap pranks by pre-people.

TV clowns and circus clowns are another matter entirely. I just can’t shake this feeling that they never take off the costume and that bothers me. I’m not one of these people who boast about my fear of clowns as if it makes me somehow edgy or unique but I’ll admit that should I somehow find myself in a dark alley surrounded by more adversaries than ammo, I would rather it be against MS-13 than circus clowns with monkeys.

Maybe I’m seeing things that aren’t there but I felt at the time that the creepy clown sightings were being used to frighten us of candidate Trump. Many pundits and politicians were referring to Donald Trump as a clown and there are more than a few pages like this:

I also saw a trend of news promo clips showing images of creepy clowns with red hair and images of candidate Trump back to back against each other. Add to that the networks were adjusting the broadcast’s tint to make Trump look more orange. That’s right. They did it. Pay attention. Every red necktie, the red in flags, the logos in the background, everything red was glowing. Not all of the time but enough to make it obvious.

I’m not surprised so much as insulted. Did they really think that their viewership would respond to the orange meme? Wow. If that in itself nudged even one single voter to be swayed I would find it to be yet another indication that we are doomed.

I actually think the networks were lazy for not making the effort to only tweak the close-ups of Trump’s head or shots of only him. I’m sure that the technology is available to have most of the viewers associate his head with a pumpkin after a debate if they really wanted to make more than a half-assed effort.

Every break all week long before the debate we would see commercials for some new pumpkin soup or pumpkin latte. Maybe their logo can have a swoosh that resembles Trumps hair. A fluff piece about how some adorable granny grew an enormous pumpkin right up next to a Trump story. Then while the world watches the debate we unknowingly witness millisecond long displays of CGI magic. Software could could easily and in realtime add an overlay to the close ups of President Trump’s face that would plump up his head, add some vertical lines and make his quaff stick up a bit to resemble a stem. Ultra fast bursts and disguising the effect as a digital artifact or glitch would make it subliminal, undetectable and most likely effective. Then right after the debate a few pumpkin/Trump cracks by anyone remotely famous on social media and it grows as fast as a long overdue brushfire.

The propaganda outlets would talk all day about how President Trump is going crazy over all the pumpkin fake news stories. They could come up with things that might rival the stories that I had seeen in the golden age of checkout line tabloids like the Weekly World News Bat Boy stories or something. Fabrications about how “anonymous sources” say Trumpkin threw a hissy fit in the oval office today because he thought someone uttered the word pumpkin under their breath. This then gets repeated all day on every propaganda channel.

That’s what they are too. It isn’t anything like news, fake or otherwise. Repeating a story all day that is completely irrelevant like how Trump allegedly told the evil Russians that ISIS had developed a laptop that can make a passenger jet auger in is flagrant.

I worked on some long put off finish carpentry projects on the lanai (patio) a few days ago and flipped back and forth between Fox News and MSNBC to listen to what the masses were being spoon fed for this phase. All day I waited but nobody seemed to bring up the fact that ISIS found out about this intelligence nugget at the same time we all did. Remember this announcement from March 22?

Or how her devoted ally did it as well?

If anyone in the ISIS loop of Project Brahmastram wasn’t smart enough to conclude that the cat was out of the bag within a week or two of the banning of laptops and tablets on flights from that list of countries then I can’t imagine that they could successfully put together a LEGO village.

But in a short while we won’t be pumped till we choke on this nonsense. Rather it will be some new faux scandal concocted by and working out brilliantly for the 534 wastes of space (not Rep. Tulsi Gabbard, well not yet anyway), propaganda outlets and paid shtrolls (shills and trolls). A win-win-win for scumbags so to speak. Here I am guilty myself of contributing to the debate about preposterous things that are distracting the masses from actual news.

Even the so called conservative channels just repeat the lie all day while making a meager effort to defend President Trump against the wild speculation. They seem to offer far more time to globalist shills than MSNBC offers to deplorableś.

Then it’s the same labotomic sideshow every time: The Fox News host asks a decent question and the shill says “Well, I think the real question is this…” at which time the shill proceeds to roll through the list of talking points they have been reciting like a monk all morning in preparation for this moment.

The Fox host never gets an answer to his question but a whole segment was dedicated to regurgitating the globalist’s talking points of the day rather than anything that matters to me. I would prefer they just cut right to it and outsource the tv pundit jobs to some smart parrots.

My point here is that stories come and go as they need to in order to lead us along, scare us or just to simply create a momentary distraction. The creepy clowns have been back in hibernation since the election. Dormant in a dark place for stories about macrocephalic zika babies, warlord Komy, and Stucky’s house.

Of course when the vast amount of the news hour is spent repeating the lie, there isn’t much time left for news. One story that is getting far less attention than it deserves is the murder of Seth Rich.

From here I go with a conspiracy postulate rather than a conspiracy theory. I’m assuming that Rich was whacked for squealing so I have moved on to the next obvious question. How did the DNC discover that it was in fact Rich who had been in contact with Wikileaks and that a document dump was imminent? Was it a wild guess? Did Wikileaks give him up? Did they blindfold Hillary and have her throw a dart at a wall with every DNC employe’s picture? Or was Podesta just being true to his word and “making an example of a suspected leaker whether or not we have any real basis for it”?

My guess is that Rich’s communications with Wikileaks were Hoovered up (like the vacuum or the J. Edgar) by several three letter agencies we know of and a few we don’t. The intelligence would have been passed on to their DNC contacts immediately. Why wait so long to kill Seth Rich you ask? To send a crystal clear message.

One would think that a professional assassin could have easily faked a suicide or treadmill accident. But there was to be no question that Mr. Rich was murdered. We would not be aware of Rich’s killing or even existence at all right now if he was found with a needle in his arm. He was killed twelve days before the Wikileaks release of the files.

This example though was not that turncoats get killed. It was a display of power. Snitches get shot four times in the back on a public street, everyone knows who green lighted it and why yet the killing is swept under the rug. That is some gangster behavior right there.

If in fact the FBI or any law enforcement agencies became aware that the laptop in their possession which belonged to Rich was the source of the DNC server contents being published by Wikileaks and haven’t seen fit to pursue this as anything more than a botched robbery then we are in serious trouble. And they want everybody to know it.

By the way, was this alleged personal laptop among the valuables not stolen at the time of the hit or did the FBI take it from his home as part of their investigation of this “random robbery”? These people are cramming 30 gallons of bullshit into a twenty gallon tub.

Assholes really needed to kill this guy?

Damn right they did.

Who will be the next Wikisource? The upside is that you are a hero but the downside is that you are dead and the powerful people responsible are never held accountable.

But I don’t jot these thoughts down just to point out the obvious. I am not a journalist or a reporter. I also do not spend the time writing just to get things off my chest. Bitching and griping are not tools in my skill set. I write because I see a void in the conversation and putting it down in a way that someone other than myself can understand is an enjoyable exercise. Mostly because it helps me work through some ideas in my head.
I am also a solution oriented person. I don’t want to just huff and puff about some topic without offering up some way forward for people to consider. I’m embarrassed to say that I have nothing to offer here. This is a very bad situation we are in.

Everyone who is capable of  matching their socks can see that we are in trouble, the problem is that nobody can agree on why. US citizens repel each other farther apart every day. The dividing line I see developing isn’t about Trump/Anti-Trump, Black/White or even liberal/conservative. The separation will be between those who see through the propaganda and those who don’t. The dupes will celebrate every Trump administration misstep, mindlessly unaware of the manipulation.

Those of us (thanks for reading) that see the propaganda for what it is will not be fooled but as of now we have no lawful recourse. We can’t demand that CNN plays actual news stories with actual facts. Or stop social media companies from manipulating the conversation. We hardly have time to contemplate one non-scandal as another is queued up and ready. Backs are being pushed against walls. This is all going in a bad direction. It almost feels at this point that the overlords want to provoke somebody from the Drain The Swamp lot to snap and force this shit to the next level.

They had no need to take this to a place where the people can no longer feel represented by elected officials and then get dick slapped across the face with the fact that we are betrayed by the highest law in the land.

It was only a month ago that we all thought that the globalists were limping in front of the waterhole. Things do seem to have changed haven’t they? The shills seem to feel empowered by stories that they know are at worst irrelevant and at best false. Rachel Maddow’s snarky diatribes are insane. She needs to lay off the energy drinks and get the help she needs.

If I hear one more time about the popular vote I’m going to lose my mind. They are just proclaiming their ignorance of the rules for game being played.

Suppose you and I played chess. You would most likely beat me because I am not very good at 2d chess. Say in the process I did somehow manage to capture (is that the right word?) one more of your pieces than you did of mine. Now what would everyone think if I went around boasting about how I took more of your pieces as if it is significant. If I repeated this nonsense every single day for the next 184 days in an effort to make everyone believe that I am in fact the superior chess player you would think I’m on Chinese meds.

The globalists aren’t winning. They are grinding. I see it as a sign of desperation. However while the globalists are not necessarily achieving the goals they would have by now if Hillary had won the election, they are keeping President Trump from working on his plan. This is a shitty way to run anything and it is unsustainable. Maybe not 2020 but there is an inevitable election in our future during which more firebombs will be cast than votes if we keep going down this road.

At the same time, I am not happy with President Trump. Not for gossiping to Russians or any of the other shit that has been flung at the stickiness testing wall. I am not so naive as to think that Trump would or could keep every one of his election promises but over the last few weeks he has crossed my threshold of credence. Nowhere near the point that I would prefer that it was Hillary or Bernie who had won. But the bottom of the condom trap in the swamp’s filter is a pretty low bar to use.

Trump’s ego gave me comfort. I felt that if he pissed off his base and if the Dems put up somebody who wasn’t a criminal or communist in 2020 then President Trump would suffer the ultimate reality check to his overawareness of self-worth. If he doesn’t turn things around quickly and get on with his promised agenda then he will be a one termer. He will be a failure. The brand will suffer.

In closing, I see many references to the sheeple being manipulated. Well if we must be sheep, let’s be like this ram.
