Is cruelty Governor Woke Smoke’s superpower?

Hey, amigo, this ain’t Gitmo… We won’t waterboard you.

We won’t force feed you—Hop on this shiny white bus to

a better life! Catch this sleek private plane to food, clothing

and shelter! Hey, señora, one plush seat’s left for you and yours!

We swear this ain’t Sunshine State slapstick! We swear

it ain’t Lone Star State Abbot and Costello—comedy of

Cruelty! …Why… we’d never score $election points with

Corporate paymasters…by using you as $campaign props…

Why, we’d never ever move men, women, children across

this confederate chessboard like bipartisan pawns—Swear we

Wouldn’t! We’re not the same bloodthirsty Europeans who gun-

smoked plains, prairies, and wetlands, creating crimson clouds.

Hey, amigo, this ain’t Gitmo… We won’t waterboard you.

We won’t force feed you—Hop on this shiny white bus to

a better life! Catch this sleek private plane to food, clothing

and shelter! Hey, señora, one plush seat’s left for you and yours!

We swear this ain’t Sunshine State slapstick! We swear

it ain’t Lone Star State Abbot and Costello—comedy of

leaving Indigenous ones with stand stolen ground nightmares…

We’re simply not the same predatory Europeans exploring Africa,

Promising, “Jobs! Jobs! Longterm Employment Opportunities!”

Trust us, “Voluntary Relocation” can live “Where woke goes to die.”

Trust us… We’ re… “like a good neighbor.” Like Allstate following

fires in California—or floods in Florida…We’d never use pandemic

Recovery Funds (earmarked for relief ) to ship you people to woke

‘Sanctuary Cities!’ Oh—no—Never!

Hey, amigo, this ain’t Gitmo… We won’t waterboard you.

We won’t force feed you. This is a melting pot! You and your family

just jump right in! Trust us… we aren’t the AI-driven, rightwing, robotic,

Brooks Brothers’ suited barbarians your growling gut’s saying we are…
