No, Ford’s Theater, considering that we would not have a nation without Lincoln, I do not think he has been placed on a pedestal worthy of his merits. Nice try at a new assassination of Mr. Lincoln.
The Left and Irony Have Not Been on Speaking Terms For a Very Long Time

I’m convinced that the typical leftist’s IQ is far too small to comprehend irony.
To T. Shaw’s point, leftist cannot comprehend irony, satire, hyperbole, parody, or any of the rest of normal literary techniques.
In addition to hugely deficient IQ, the typical liberal [childhood spent eating paint chips?] dolt operates on emotions not data, fact, logic or rationality.
I keep a list of logical fallacies. Each moment, the typical lib hits each and every one.
But, TShaw, logic and truth are just patriarchal white supremacy constructs. The only thing that matters is the Feelz. /sarc off
Dear Fords Theatre, you apparently are under the delusion that I, and my fellow taxpayers, are paying you to sit around thinking up clever, woke things to twit about. We are not. Get up off your butt and GET BACK TO WORK.
