Just Jack on Bluesky FTW

The FBI guy is on a paranoid bender and won’t leave his room.

The War guy quotes bible passages from Pulp Fiction.

The Health guy collects raccoon dicks.

It’s an Idiocracy on steroids.

Btw, I have no idea who Just Jack is, though he has nearly half a million followers on Bluesky, including about a fifth of the people there that I follow (most of them people who are very popular on DU). A Wikipedia article on the most popular Bluesky accounts indicates Just Jack is the British musician Just Jack, but I haven't seen anything to confirm or even hint at that anywhere else.

Make us the laughing stock of the world and destroy any trust, respect, admiration.
Denigrate us every day and in every way.

This is sometimes done as part of a deliberate military strategy.
Winning is not enough.
The enemy must be ground to dust and denigrated in a humiliating fashion.

Who benefits and how?

Unfortunately it’s getting worse.

The above from Jack is spot on.

The people in that film were dumb because society just gave up on education and basically let AI do everything. But most of them actually meant well. They wanted to help and do the right thing they just didn’t know how.

No such altruism exists in the GOP controlling all the federal government now. They are every bit as stupid but also complete sociopaths and grifters. All of them.

... on the show, Will and Grace, their wacky neighbor had a schtick he called "Just Jack". Might this incarnation of "Just Jack" be Sean Hayes, who played that wacky neighbor?
