Flugennock's Latest'n'Greatest: "The Cake Was Not A Lie"

from DC's anarchist cartoonist -

The Cake Was Not A Lie
http://sinkers.org/stage/?p=3640

Yeah, I know the Florida Legislature Dancing And Cake Story broke 
nearly 2 weeks ago, but at the time, I was busy finishing the job of 
"Finishing The Job".

So, aaaa-aanyway... if the almighty Fact-Checking Industrial Complex 
is to be believed, the dancing was not at the end of the session, but 
before they settled down to the business of otherizing, criminalizing, 
villifying and immiserating a major portion of the whole goddamn state 
with a legislative horrorshow.

Luckily for me, though, the part of the story that was true was the 
cake part. According to this big, hot steamy bucket of gloat in the DC 
Enquirer*, a Florida legislative staffer mocked protesters at the 
State Capitol at the time by eating cake at their desks in front of 
them.

So, it seems that just this once, the cake is not a lie.

*CONTENT WARNING: Yet another fascist rag in DC — as if the Examiner 
and the Times aren't enough; article cites Andy Ngo tweets, and some 
shit-take dropping fascist tool declaring "Make America Florida". They 
did, however, get the cake-eating part right.
