This Weapon of Mass Destruction That We Call Our President

Table of Content

Eminem performed his newish single "Mosh" this weekend on Saturday Night Live, and while it looked to both █████ and me as if he too was lip-synching, it was still an energizing sight.

I had been reading about the video to the song for several days already, but when curmudgeon posted a link to it and I saw it myself, it literally brought tears to my eyes. It's one powerful piece of propaganda. If the young voters who hear this song and especially see the video do turn out to vote because of it—assuming they're registered, which with motor-voter laws is entirely possible—it could tip the election. Who'd have thought?
