Humor. I’m sure the word is in the dictionary. It often involves hyperbole. This is a joyous group, and Bagster is one of the reasons that following Q has become so much fun. Beware of losing your humor. It will make you more sympatico with liberals, who have none.

There was a wonderful quote that I can’t place right now to the effect that Trump followers understand Trump isn’t to be taken literally, but the ones against Trump try to take his humor and attack it literally. That’s what you’re doing with Bagster and it doesn’t result in you appearing to have a deep understanding of psychology or humor.

Bagster is funny BECAUSE he uses hyperbole. It’s not to be believed literally. His statements are to be enjoyed, the essence taken from their centers, and roared over.

The quip is that President Trump’s enemies take him literally but not seriously; his supporters take him seriously but not literally.

FYI, Enlightened1 has a long history or trolling here -- and shows no indication of showing any proclivity to beqome [sic] one of us. It is a would-be destructive organism, and is definitely not worth your sympathy or attempt to enlighten. '-)

It is best treated as one would treat skunk carrion on the side of the footpath -- which is more than it deserves...

Publi-personal aside: Do you have a link to your latest wonderful art/music creations?

All the best,
