Mount Benny Hill’s theme song and let the laughs of the belly start start.
While the immigration summer raids of President Trump turn into a fall in occupation, I need it – and who knew that his expulsion machine could bring them? Watching immigration videos and customs application in failing action is like watching the Stormtroopers of “Star Wars” who were refreshing or laughing in despite the full support of the Emperor himself.
Have you seen the one where two masked agents find it difficult to master a Latin man on a lawn while a small dog barks behind a fence? And when the agents grab his t-shirt, he slips, grab his thrown hat and rushed like humiliating insects Elmer Fudd?
Or what about the coil where a white handcuffed man, obviously a protester, dressed in all black walks alongside his ravasters before turning them like Saquon Barkley escaping a plate as he disappears in a crowd – but not before another manifesting the scene offers the scene offers his comrade a slap of enthusiastic back?
You can get your Jollies with a special Dave Chappelle, or by catching the defense secretary Pete Hegseth by trying his impression of General Patton in front of another group of stone generals, but it is best to settle on the Yuks who count – Chortles which cause as much hope as humor.
It is a reminder that Trump’s potential empire, eager for martial law, is not all powerful. And that Americans can still sink at an official evil – and should.
“Laughter and tears are both answers to frustration and exhaustion,” said Kurt Vonnegut, adding that he “prefers (ed) to laugh, because there is less cleaning to do afterwards.”
When you see The migra Unable to lower the front door of a Nicaraguan immigrant to an apartment in Fontana just a second after the man closed it on their faces, you just have to laugh at a scenario straight out of the Keystone Kops. And then there are the viral images of a food delivery driver on his bike by browsing a phalanx of armed agents of border patrols in downtown Chicago last month.
“I am not An American citizen! The guy screams, daring to hold him. As a bunch of agents give the prosecution weakly;
These videos are balm and inspiration for our dark times and they are even better with a soundtrack – I saw people remixing them with a happy Mexican banda Classics such as “La Chona” or “El Sinaloenense”. The best use “Yakety Sax”, the high energy game, so many of us, we remember the melody that Benny Hill used at the end of his eponymous show with a bunch of people who pursue him after another comic misunderstanding.
Because this is all these immigration repression: sick Charades. Armed men grabbing the tamal ladies? The hard -frightened hards to show their faces? Billions of dollars spent for all this? Everything we can do is laughing at the absurdity of all this so as not to cry.
These videos are unfortunately only a drop in the toxic river of the articles showing that immigration agents brutalizing migrants and citizens who have long drowned almost everything that is on my social media flows. This is why each of these ice videos as Angnoramus is a treasure and why I see that so many of my friends share. They testify that the expulsion of Trump Leviathan is not only invincible, but also battable.
Videos are particularly important as a repudiation of one of the main propaganda boards in the Department of Internal Security: use smooth clips to glorify The migra As Badass Avengers with attempted humor as fundamental for their mission. A recent consisted of a close-up of one of these vents above your plane seat which regulates air traffic while the captain of the plane welcomes the spectator with “iced air” on the intercom.
“Next time, come to America legally or don’t come at all!” THANKS!” The captain announces in an clumsy voice.
Cue the “Simpsons” clip by Bart launching a cake that reads “at least you have tried” in the garbage.
What Kristi Noem internal security secretary and the revenge chamber of her writer do not receive is that the only of the worst root of Goliath. This means that the joke is on them whenever they go through peaceful neighborhoods such as the imitations “Call of Duty”. Scenes like it does not scare anyone; They simply exhibit the buffoonery behind the Bravura. This is why we must share everything that captures them as much as possible.
Humans have laughed at tyrants that go back to the era of the ancient Greeks. However, I also saw pro-immigrant activists now insist that it is not the time to laugh, even if it is at the expense of Ice. For them, Otto Santa Ana says that they are missing a precious tool in the struggle for our democracy. It is a retirement teacher at UCLA Chicano who works on a book on the nature of humor, until his biology.
“People who make fun of ice are not contrary to people who stand on the front line,” he said. “The mockery allows us to redirect this frustration in something positive. We both laugh at the aggressor and lions with other people laughing. When it reaches the viral levels, we know that our community is taking joy – and our community needs joy at the moment. ”
Santa Ana Gloussa by describing some of the best videos I have seen. He turned me to more. When I asked if the republication of these clips with ironic songs represented a new front in political humor, he said that they reminded him of Martin Luther, the man who triggered the reform by calling the moral and financial rot of the Catholic Church at the time. Part of his strategy was to publish a heretical and hysterical song against the Pope based on a German folk air which assured that people listening to him, would sing him and allow his criticisms against the Catholic Church to spread more quickly and further.
“Today’s videos are only another manifestation that technology can be used to embrace us, to unify us,” said Santa Ana.
“The act moves the public narrative of frightening and powerful ice cream to laughable and weak,” he added. “And the oppressed sense their moral superiority has justified against an evil.”
He concluded: “Authority feeds on fear and ignorance and when people who can defend their rights articulate it with humor, this helps to shoot down the henchman.”
