Make Them Look Ridiculous

Sarah Hoyt brings up a point in Let the Joker Go Wild(read the whole thing):

Well, you know, kiddies, the problem we face is that most of the populace SIMPLY doesn’t follow politics. They don’t. They just see a digest and THINK this means that it’s all above board, etc. I mean, they see the election map and think it’s real, and that it must be absolutely true.

So? Make doggerel verse. Find out how to rhyme something with Commie Lawhorish and laptop from hell, and election fraud. For extra credit make a stamp or stickers. Put them on phone poles. Put them on bus stops. You have to use a public toilet? Put it there. Let the knowledge penetrate from below. It doesn’t even have to be very funny. People tend to startle-laugh at those who speak the forbidden.

Obviously this oughtn't be the extent of anyone's plans. But... certainly using non-centralized dissemination of ridiculous truths sounds like part of one. And being ungovernable in general.

What the heck. I'm in.
