but I think this golden-pig statue is way over the top even for Pluto-fascist “conservatives”. I do note, however, that not a soul in the corridor who sees the thing complains or seems shocked. In fact, many are excitedly taking pictures of it!


But maybe that’s what Aaron really intended with his golden calf! A joke! You know:

"O, Israel this is gonna have you in stitches. Behold a fucking golden bovine like the Philistines worship! Funny, isn’t it? No, no, wait, guys, stop praying to it, cut it out. You are so going to be in trouble when my brother comes back down the mountain. It’s a joke, Israel, not a real god!"

...if the video didn't show that they're steering it through the hallway by pushing/pulling on it without it seeming to deform, I'd think it was inflatable.

Plus, The Previous Guy doesn't seem like the flip-flops type. Not to mention the tie is way too short for verisimilitude. Just some odd fashion choices altogether the way they dressed him.

This is so F'd up. If you wrote fiction, and this is what you produced, you probably would never be taken seriously. This is so appalling it's beyond the pale.
