@a_c__01001101@Gaile11011100@LinkeviciusL That’s sarcasm. If you don’t recognize it in one message, read the others in her account. If you still think she means it, I have bad news for you
I was just about to read Mary Shelley’s “Frankenstein” – to distract myself from the news. And then in the preface, the word “Trump” appears three times on a single page 😅

PREFACE
Why we still love Frankenstein
Hannah Bervoets
“Conservative media created Frankenstein,” writes political commentator Sean Illing on July 9, 2015, in his https://t.co/uvOnx0kTAO column. “His name is Donald Trump, [and he] is stupid, angry, and completely detached from reality.”
Illing goes on to argue that conservative television channels spent years deliberately demonizing immigrants, thereby creating the perfect conditions for Trump’s success:
“And now Donald Trump will consume them.”
Bless your brittle, bracket-obsessed heart. Jan Murray drops one perfectly accurate, zero-malice observation about House being eight seasons of the same patient nearly dies, wrong diagnosis, last minute genius routine (a critique so mild it barely qualifies as criticism), and you swan in like a Victorian dowager who’s just been told her watercolours are “a bit samey.”
You don’t just reply;you perform. You drag poor Bach and Frida Kahlo into it, equate a medical procedural to the Goldberg Variations, then finish with the classic celebrity mic-drop: “Can’t wait for your first novel….”
Mate. The show ended fourteen years ago. The patients have been cured, the credits have rolled, and yet here you are, still in the white coat, still diagnosing dissent as ignorance. Nothing says “secure artistic legacy” quite like a multi-millionaire actor personally ratioing someone for noticing the formula that paid for your house(s).
If House taught us anything, it’s that the truth is usually staring you in the face while you’re busy being insufferably clever. Janet saw the formula. You saw a threat.
Pot, kettle, lupus; whatever. The only mystery left is why a man who once played the world’s most arrogant doctor is now cosplaying the world’s most fragile one on Twitter.
