Rant #3,869: I Really Wanna Know

As most of you know, i am all over the Internet, in one form or another.

I am extremely prevalent in Facebook, where not only do I regularly post on a variety of subjects, but I also run a couple of groups abd I also put up the daily Rants each weekday.

So it really doesn't come as a surprise to me when someone disagrees with me.

As I have said over and over and over again, as long as the repartee is civil and doesn't go off on unnecessary and uncalled for tangents, I am OK with it.

But as you know, some people do manage to cross the line, and those people need to be dealt with, and dealt with quickly 

I have no patience with such people, who should really know better, but somehow, don't.

That is why something that festered this past weekend was so confounding to me. 

Again, I put up comments on Facebook on a variety of subjects, and you do not have to agree with me at all ... just keep it on an adult level.

Well, I must have posted something that completely threw off someone into a complete mental abyss, because someone, who I do not know nor who knows me, went off on a tirade on Facebook messenger, a tirade to a level that I have never experienced before--

And to a certainbmoment, I had absolutely no idea what this person was referring to, what post i made that threw him into such a tizzy.

Here is what transpired:

"Does it suck being so awful and hateful? I feel sorry fir you," was his initial message to me.

I replied, "How so? What did I do to throw you into such a tizzy? What post are you referring to?"

He responded: "You fat idiot."

I knew i was getting into some bizarro world with him after this reply, but I still had no idea what he was referring to.

I messaged him: "You haven't answered the question, and I am not fat, by the way. What did I say to offend you?"

When he didn't reply, I messaged him: "Cat caught you tongue? You sure you got the right guy?"

He later replied, "You stupid fat zio."

To that, I replied, "Again, I have no idea what your rant is about. You should see a doctor due to your anxiety against a person you don't even know. Let me know what you are so upset about. And what is a "fat zio?" Takes one to know one, I guess."

Yes, I shouldn't have pushed it this far, but my curiosity got the best of me.

To that moment, and I had absolutely no idea why this person got so irked at me, and I just wanted to know what I posted that made him get this crazy.

But let me tell you, I was really dying to know what a "fat zio" was.

I even went so far as to look up the term, and AI told me that it "likely refers to NBA player Zion Williamson, known for his powerful build and past struggles with weight, prompting nicknames and discussions about his fitness."

Nah, I don't think he called me that for that reason--

But anyone know what a "fat zio" is?

Please let me know ...

But I kind of found out what he meant later in the afternoon.

This simpleton finally replied to me, and quite frankly, he said all that he had to say:

"You idiot zio simp. You love killing babies."

Yup, I think you get it now as much as I did.

I replied to him the only way I could:

"Really. You are nothing but a Hamas groupie. Now I think I get you. A loser who has nothing better to do than go after me for absolutely no reason. You are a sick person, and really need some type of psychiatric help."

I mean, what more could I have said to him at this point?

Anti-Semitism runs rampant on Facebook, without check.

Beyond this fool, I received some other rather "nice" posts in reply to things I had to say, and I won't reprint them here, because they aren't worth it.

Yes, anything goes on social media, and I have been attacked left, right and center, and yes, I am fed up with it all, but since Facebook only kicks off people selectively--I know that because, you might remember, I was removed for a period of time after I announced my mother had passed away and put up the funeral information, and then removed me for several more weeks after I complained about it--there really isn't very much one can do.

But I really cannot just sit here and take it all in--the stuff that has been directed to me is absolutely vicious in nature, and the people directing these missives at me probably wouldn't do the same in person, so they use the digital shield to say whatever the heck they want.

These people are sick, but let's be honest about it, the world is sick--and I mean, very sick--right now.

Social media gives these psychos with pent up viciousness a platform to release whatever nonsense they have, and I won't take it lightly.

And yes, I blocked this imbecile. The end.

And now we find out that Governor Josh Shapiro of Pennsylvania, a Jewish Democrat, was asked some pointed questions about his allegiance and loyalty to our country--and whether he was also working as an agent for Israel--when Kamala Harris' team interviewed him for the vice president position in the last presidential election.

I will bet Harris will end up denying this, end up saying that she didn't personally ask such a question, but it came from her camp, and  I do believe Shapiro.

Why would he say this if it was not true? What did he have to gain by putting this explosive tidbit into a book he has written?

And don't you think that Harris should've known better, since her husband, the former "First Gentleman," is--

JEWISH.

I will say one more thing about all of this.

'NEVER AGAIN ... and that means in 2026 too."
