SI Rosenbaum was the
editor at the Phoenix in Boston until its recent demise. I’ve not read the Phoenix in
years. No one has, in print. It’s all migrated to the Internet and
thus words on paper struggle.
In my youth, I marveled
at the left wing tone while every fashionable shop or restaurant would
advertise. How did they expect the
revolution to happen while they spent so much time at brunch? That was back in the 70s. Who knows what its orientation was as
it breathed its last?
SI now blogs. She has a site and as far as I can
tell, there is one entry. The gist
is that everyone did the right thing there in Boston. They all happily stayed indoors doing what people do in our
culture. Watch TV, surf the Internet,
blog, play video games or, maybe even read a book. Who knows?
Then when it was over all were happy. Why would
anyone think it was anything but voluntary?
To be fair, you should
read her piece. It is not the
worst argument for the lockdown I’ve seen. I disagree and posted a comment.
The video speaks for itself, my scared little bunnies. For the record, I live in Mass, but outside of the zone. I have relatives who do.I don’t listen to sports radio, but this is food for thought.There are other images of the searches and how they were not happy camping in home. I am glad to see how the Progressives of Eastern Mass have embraced Lindsay Graham’s definition of the homeland as the battlefield.Ein reich, ein volk, ein Boston Strong.
The
blogger did not let my comment through but posted:

Now
to be fair, calling people scared little bunnies might be stretched to implying
sheeple. I think that term hackneyed
and would not use it.
When
people came out and yelled USA, USA, yeah, it kinda felt like people shouting
ein reich etc. No way was an jefe
maximo being implied. I think our
lass was being glich francach caca laca.
It’s phrase in the westernmost Indo-European meaning cute as a shithouse
rat.
The
whole episode was embarrassing, from the lack of fire control that led to the
wounding by his fellow cops of the T officer to the shots fired at the
boat. To feel it anything but a
fiasco is buffoonery.
So is
there a Neutralist connection here.
But of course. The fighting
them over there so we don’t have to fight them over here meme is dead.
Thank
you Lindsay and SI.
