Look At The Little Fascist Trying To Pretend He's A Patriot.

 It's the Day's Day of Days! Because what is quicksand.

This rambling collection of strip fragments loosely slapped together to try and simulate an actual strip does give us a couple interesting points. We get something of an idea of what Muir thinks is going on in Ukraine, and it is of course, delusional nonsense where Muir not only backs a fascist state waging a genocidal war of conquest, but does so as they fail, while desperately insisting they aren't. But the other interesting thing is it's increasingly clear that at least some part of Muir is uneasy about turning from a jingoistic war-booster to a craven right-wing isolationist. The former was always a bad counterfeit of patriotism--but the latter is an even worse one. Muir's disdain for the nation he claims to love has only grown over the years, and it shows. It shows.
