Not an American, but I just noticed that the election day is on the 5th of November. Given the similarities between Trump and the chancellor, it seems like a good opportunity to remind people what is coming if they vote for Trump.
For those who haven’t watched V for Vendetta, do it, the reference will make sense.
Remember, remember, the 5th of November,
Gunpowder, treason and plot.
I see no reason
Why gunpowder treason
Should ever be forgot.
He was also the idiot who got caught… The whole gunpowder conspiracy went up in smoke (bad joke very much intended) when he gave up all his co-conspirators… He was not alone in being a dumb-ass, others did make mistakes, like writing their friends to not go to parlanent that day.
Its no suprise England mocks him every year on his “holiday”.
Its both the holywood depiction of an idiot with poor planning on one hand, combined wit h the other hand-the somewhat callective fantasy of many a culture, especially one such as the Brits, of clearing out the miserableb power structure in such dramatic ways. Thats why the holiday is still around. It wasn’t anything in particular about that plot by itself, after all I’m sure since then but didn’t have caught many of more political terrorists.
