Got Eye Trouble Whight Here in Feverswamp City

Dear Dr. Bones,

¡Feliz neosábado, Señor el Doctor! And furthermore,

Anástasis
(( ¡Khristós Voskr’és! ))

’Ammâ ba‘da, "but seriously," . . .

. . . Party Neocomradess (fifth grade) M. X. Eagan, "the Colleen of Coolidge Corner," has, for some unguessable reason, decided to celebrate the Biggest Day of All by scribblin’ ’bout the Massachusetts Bay Torture Authority an’ the Deweyplatzbesetzer. Her freeladyship is not Paddy’s direct target, but you do have to know that it has seemed good to the Freeedame of Eagan and to the Holy Ghost--plus don't forget the Herald of Louisedayhicksville--to forge and utter the following:

A 30-cent hike on the T? Occupy Boston wants to go to the mat over this? (...) Before the November election’s here and their hour upon the stage is done, they need to find a reasonably savvy, charismatic, camera-ready young Turk, or Turkette, to run the show and stick it to the greed heads (_sic_) while the nation’s still listening. Otherwise, they’ll just fade away as could-have-beens, a perfect opportunity squandered.

To that precious effusion of keystrokes, which it would not hurt you to study the whole of, there have been, as is usual with her freeladyship, a number of not exactly laudatory responses from the general direction of LDHV. Freedame Eagan has, by the way, announced on ‘her’ radio circus that her freeladyship has long since given up readin’ such stuff for Lent all year ’round an’ every year.

I sorted the peanut gallery, as is my wont, by "Highest Rated," and the following two gems bubbled to the top of the drainage ditch:

BallBreaker

"They had the 1-percenters shaking in their boots."

Really Marge? You are out of your mind if you believe this. I dare you to name one. All I saw was the 1-percenters that were looking to exploit the Occupy movement (ie. Russell Simmons, Michael Moore, Jay-Z, etc.).

Marge, how many of these occupiers have thirty cents?? Or know what a job is?? You, who tell people to vote the big "D" for Devaluate and friends. I thought for Easter you might be picking on the Pope.

Notice how everybooby in Louisedayhicksville is still on a nickname basis with ‘Marge’. The ’hicks may bowl alone nowadays, but it still takes two to tangle, so ¿maybe there is hope for Gemeinschaft in spite of everything?

More important, though, is to notice that BB an’ MM, so to call these two kiddicons lest the horses take fright, have diametrically opposite notions of what they were up against when they stepped out of the great gate of South Station. MM thinks the Occupoopers all suffered from the dread scourge of Murrayan Dependency, unable to find a quarter and a nickle to rub together, whereas BB prefers to despise his boss’s Class enemies as TopPercenters out slumming. I believe Howard Lawrence Louis, zeroth Freelord Carr in the peerage of Foxcuckooland, has identified the social type as "trust-fund babies." [1]

This is not the place or time for us grave social scientisers to attempt to decide which opinion is objectively sounder. The topic before us is not, in fact, the ’poopers themselves, but rather the perception of them current at LDHV. And what strikes me is that, although it is possible to see them either way--here, after all, we have examples of a ’hick who actually does each seein’--Eye have yet to encounter a whight-winger who made the pretty obvious suggestion that some of the accused are authentic Bad Poors, while others were chauffered in from Weston 02493 every morning before sunrise.

I conclude, tentatively, that the race of Kolourblind Kiddies must suffer from other visual bugs (or features) beyond the eponymous one.

Some students of neocomradology, often not in possession all that much intellectual bottom themselves, can hardly get through two sentences about Selfservatism in America without dropping the word ‘simplistic’, a word which does seem vaguely applicable, I admit. But the degree of simplism involved would be staggering. And remember, Eye do not speak of kiddiecons who attempt, however badly, to analyze the Ocupooper Phænomenon, but of those who only report what they see.

Happy days.
