people aren’t angry about comey getting fired because he’s a good guy who got dinged by a bad guy. actually he’s one hell of a dirty cop, and people have been pissed at him for a while – notably because he did a big reveal on clinton’s emails during the election, timed to distract from trump’s pussy-grabbing tape, but didn’t reveal that trump’s campaign was also being investigated until after the election. in other words, he did spin control and character assassination work for trump.
so yeah, no, he’s compromised and he deserved to get fired. six months ago.
why are people angry now? well, this very obviously dirty cop was getting off scot free until he investigated trump. and then suddenly the smear job he did on trump’s behalf is worth firing him over.
that’s why it’s such a big deal. trump’s white house is full of hydra goons, and they’re the right wing’s precious babs until they ‘turn traitor’ by trying to fight crime or serve the public. and they’re no longer even trying to hide it.
idk I just love how we Young People Today use ~improper~ punctuation/grammar in actually really defined ways to express tone without having to explicitly state tone like that’s just really fucking cool, like
no = “No,” she said.
no. = "No,” she said sharply.
No = “No,” she
stated
firmly.
No. = “No,” she snapped.
NO = “No!” she shouted.
noooooo = “No,” she moaned.
no~ = “No,” she said with a drawn-out sing-song.
~no~ = “No,” she drawled sarcastically.
NOOOOO = “No!” she screamed dramatically.
no?! = “No,” she said incredulously.
I’ve been calling this “typographical nuance” and I have a few more to add:
*no* = “No,” she said emphatically.
*nopes on out of here* = “No,” she said of herself in the third person, with a touch of humorous emphasis.
~*~noooo~*~ = “No,” she moaned in stylized pseudo-desperation.
#no = “No,” she added as a side comment.
“no” = “No,” she scare-quoted.
wtf are you kidding no = “No,” she said flatly. “And I can’t believe I have to say this.”
no no No No NO NO NO NO = "No,” she repeated over and over again, growing louder and more emphatic.
nooOOOO = “No,” she said, starting out quietly and turning into a scream.
*no = “Oops, I meant ‘no,’” she corrected, “Sorry for the typo in my previous message.”
I cannot express how strongly I absolutely love language and writing and communication but if anyone asks why I will be showing them this post from now on
this is great, but I got to “no no No No NO NO NO NO” and immediately started singing “mamma mia, mamma mia, mamma mia let me go”
no no no nO (no no no)= “No,” she said, sticking to the status quo
