    This sounds so like Jordan Peterson! 😂

    "Post-modernists like Elmo don’t understand they actually advocate for mass killing – is that what you want? Well, then – no way. Sorry. Not me. I won’t stand for it.”

    It just needs an “eh” at the end!

    Elmo is just a little monster and sometimes Elmo forgets to clean up because Elmo is busy learning, playing, and making new friends. Elmo thinks it’s important to have fun and be happy too. Elmo tries to clean up, but sometimes Elmo needs a little help. Maybe we can clean up together! What do you think, Mr. Peterson?

      "You know who else liked to clean up? Hitler; the physical manifestation of the archetypical monster inside all of us, bucko.

      Niche once said, am I’m paraphrasing here: when you stare into the monster, you’ll find the monster staring back at you.

      And that’s no joke, you could very well say that the monster is the metaphysical lobster who pops bendodiazapine’s like a three year old with a sugar addiction.

      And you know what happens then? You become the embodiment of Peter Pan, the boy who never grows up, and that’s you Elmo, you’re at least fifty years old, and you refuse to clean up your bedroom."

    “In many ways it’s good to see Mr. Peterson show the young men who follow him that it really is OK for men to cry. Trying to be stoic 24/7 can lead to serious outbursts and doesn’t allow loved ones to know when these men need support,” Klein said. “That being said he could suck it up a bit – dude cries all the time.”

    I see the old school The Onion has been reincarnated, in all its original surrealistic glory. This story is an absolute goddamned masterpiece.

    Edit: It’s not The Onion, it is far superior
