UFC: Ultimate Failure of Capitalism

“Sweaty Dick Punching” on the White House lawn.

State-sponsored gladiator fights for a hand-picked audience of the absurdly wealthy, the inexplicably powerful and some soldiers who met the aesthetic requirements; remotely viewable by anyone who paid a fee to the President’s friend.

That was … a thing that happened?

It certainly draws attention to the current craze for imperial Rome and it’s fans desire for the U.S. to try speed-running the collapse.

On purpose, even.

Can’t say I’m much into it, frankly.

And I don’t really have much to say about it.

The general tackiness of the event is obvious and the record-breaking levels of corruption involved have been extensively documented elsewhere.

But the fact that it was allowed to happen by Congress and the Courts is enough to show that the America we grew up on with “Schoolhouse Rock” is gone, to the extent that it was ever actually real.
