Thank you for that! This story about the guy who theatrically threw his Gillette razor in the toilet, and the responses, seems like the perfect fable for these things:
He really owned the libs, lol.

A wolf in sheep’s clothing? More like a wolf disguising himself as a sheep to try to get away from making payments to his baby mama. (The Guardian reprint)
But Miller’s departure from Teneo was a sham. Previously undisclosed confidential records from inside Teneo show that on the same day Miller signed a formal “separation agreement and general release” from Teneo, he signed a new contract with the firm, whereby Teneo agreed to secretly engage Miller as a consultant, through a hastily formed LLC, at the very same base compensation of nearly $500,000 doing the very same work.
The maneuver adroitly allowed Teneo to let Miller continue working for them, during a time when the largely Democratic firm was eager to develop closer relations with the Trump White House – while also not having to pay the reputational and public relations costs of openly associating with Miller and others in the administration.
Only three days after his resignation and the signing of his new employment agreement with Teneo for the same base pay, according to state court records in Miami-Dade county, Florida, Miller asked the court to “abate and modify” his support payments and swore he could no longer make his child support payments because the “petitioner’s unemployment is public knowledge”.

But even more likely, statistically, is that now that LG has publicized that he has an expensive firearm and ammunition, someone is going to break into his house while he is known to be away for work (over half the year) and steal his AR-15, which adds it to the list of hundreds of thousands of untraceable weapons in the hands of criminals.

My thoughts exactly upon reading that snippet;
“Watch someone take it from you now, you dummy.”

And of course, he’ll break down crying like he always does.
It’s quite alright to cry, but if you do it as much as LG, well…

One telling quote from the article:
Grover Norquist, the founder and president of Americans for Tax Reform, who expressed alarm at the damage that the disclosure provisions could do. “The left is not stupid, they’re evil,” he warned. “They know what they’re doing. They have correctly decided that this is the way to disable the freedom movement.”
So saith the man who once declared he wanted to shrink the government enough that he could drown it in a bathtub.
Projection is a hell of a defense mechanism, to the point that it’s pathologic in conservatives.

He said bathtub, but I’m sure that he meant a rope and tree.
