Ironclad Irony

White Punks On Trump

July 21, 2026

As the Gestrumpo continues its murderous purge across this country in service of a new American apartheid, most Americans – of all colors – are appalled. It is a small percentage among us who believe this country belongs to them and them alone.

Send Out The Clowns

There’s irony and then there’s irony. And then there’s pathetic buffoonery of literally historic proportions. There are people in this country, always have been actually, who are apoplectic about the eventuality that white people in America are moving steadily toward becoming a minority, when people of color outnumber their less melanin-endowed fellow citizens, perhaps rendering whitey irrelevant. I probably won’t be around when that day comes, but it seems inevitable. It also seems just and wholly appropriate since the white power structure, now in its 251st year, has never quite been willing to share or play well with others. To put it mildly. And thanks to Trump and his unrelenting white supremacist crusaders, are currently attempting to reverse their impending minority status via murder and mayhem. So really, the best I can offer is – Fuck ‘em.

Isn’t It Rich?

When you think about it, the only people who don’t belong here, who have been trespassing on this continent since day one, are white people. Native Americans were obviously here first. They in part welcomed and in turn were used as a welcome mat by the uninvited, beyond-impolite intruders. Brown people are mostly descended from those original inhabitants from south of what was, prior to the incursion and genocide perpetrated by white men, a non-existent border. The first people to come here from Africa would just as soon have stayed home and so cannot be blamed for being in a land that was not theirs originally.

So guess what all you white folks who keep trying to act like you own the place, who keep whining about there being too many non-whites running around your exclusive club country – It ain’t yours. Never was. Never will be. Start fucking off and don’t stop until you reach forever.

Stop fucking kidnapping and shooting people and locking up innocent people who actually have value in this society unlike you racist, murderous psychos who, if not for the fact that ICE is hiring mentally unstable, violent racist assholes with single-digit IQs, would just be sitting around waiting for the next Trump-led insurrection so you can assault law officers and shit all over the Capitol.

As I and others were often told while protesting against government misdeeds back in the day – a time we thought was so filled with bad actors and horrific goings-on, but now seems almost Edenic by comparison – “Love it or leave it.” Maybe it’s time to turn the tables and tell these racist pukes to take a hike. There’s a nice place, not too far away…

Full disclosure: I am a white guy. To quote Frank Zappa, “Hey you know something people, I’m not black, but there’s a whole lotsa times I wish I could say I’m not white.”

    1. What a lovely idea. Where's Stephen Hawking when you need him? Or Doc Brown?
