“Why is the government using its vast power to identify these obnoxious asshats, and not the other tens of thousands who plague the internet?”

–Ken White

First we’ll mulch the judges; then we’ll bake

the ground-up prosecutors into pies;

we’ll pluck-out every congresscreature’s eyes;

for every cop, a guillotine and stake.

We mean it, pigs. Make no fucking mistake:

if not tomorrow or next week—surprise!—

some day we’ll figure how to anonymize

and route actual murder so as to make

hyperbolic rhetoric into

a magic incantation, thus commission

via mere intention, criminal

and violent retribution of the sort we spew

quite fecklessly, an Internet tradition:

untruth made true, if quite subliminal.
