If Joe Biden Wins, Here's What You Won't See

If Joe Biden's campaign survives any challenges made regarding his lead in the electoral college, and he is named the 46th president of the United States, what you don't see afterwards is as important as what you do see. For example:

-- You probably won't see conservatives burning down government buildings, looting pharmacies, and assaulting police officers. Conservative protests usually take the form of people praying while on their knees, or Tea Party activists wearing their polo shirts and khaki shorts, holding the American flag, and then leaving the park -- which they inhabited with a permit -- in better condition than when they found it.

-- You probably won't notice conservatives demanding time off from work or school so they can sit home and sulk for three days/two weeks/four years. They'll be disappointed for a few days, perhaps criticize Democrats, mail-in balloting, and the not-even-trying-to-hide-it-anymore media, look forward to 2022, and then get on with their lives.

-- You probably won't see Tiktok videos of conservatives making tearful, mostly incoherent rants while in their cars.

-- Most likely, you won't see anti-Biden protesters make the trip to the inauguration, sit on the ground, make sure that the camera is running, and then do this.

In a way, it would be satisfying if some conservatives would behave like this, just to see whether progressives recognize the way they've been acting for four (or twenty) years.

The Left's Obviously Coordinated Message on Twitter: They Have No Lives

I'm a Twitter lurker, in that I don't currently have an account, but I can read threads when other sites link to them. Apparently, numerous left-wingers are posting this, today, even while some batches of votes are being "discovered" (and other batches of ballots discovered in the trash):

"I love seeing TRUMP lose, it's my daily medicine, my weekly energy, my monthly inspiration and my yearly motivation. His loss is the only reason i'm still alive, i was born to love and enjoy the failure that he has achieved."

This has two examples of comma splices. A sentence can have only one main clause, but each of these sentences has two. If someone were to express such a pathetic expression of one's life that seeing a political candidate lose is his or her sole reason for existing as a living person, then (s)he should be using a semicolon rather than a comma after the word "lose" and again after the word "alive," or, if one prefers the comma, then a conjunction can be used immediately afterwards.

More importantly, however, just imagine your life being this devoid of meaning that this would be something you would actually proclaim. Add to that the inability of expressing such a trite thought without the help of copy and paste.
