How Dare The Fascists Turn On The Nazis!

It's the Day's Day of Days! Because The Green Archer.

I'm torn between the delight of watching Muir sporadically attack Trump and Company in his latest Purity Spiral, the quiet horror that it's because he's achieved a new level of Actual Nazi, and the sad amusement was that was what it took for him to realize that, no actually Israel's government is kind of awful and a terrible ally. 

Complicated feelings for such an awful strip.

"Say, What If We Set The Boat On Fire? Like The Vikings Did?"

 It's the Day's Day of Days! Because King of the Carnival.

At this point, I'm pretty sure Muir watched The Prisoner recently, and he's fallen in love with it for all the wrong reasons. Which has lead to this strip, a particularly dark shout-out to a fan. Instead of having his virtual self getting to gawk at the cast, Frank Manning gets to discuss potential crimes against humanity with them. 

Joy.

A Reboot That REALLY Isn't Needed...

 It's the Day's Day of Days! Because Panther Girl of the Kongo.

Muir does realize that the Village were the bad guys and Number Six was the good guy, right?

Or does he imagine that the situation would be different if his people were doing it to no good inferior leftists?

He Knows This Is True Because He Wants It To Be True!

It's the Day's Day of Days! Because The Cole Murder Case. 

There's something almost awe-inspiring in the number of times Muir has declared the conspiracy theory of the day proven, and then just moved on when, no, it wasn't, actually, in fact it was bullshit.

You Hate To See It, But More Than That, You Love To See It.

 It's the Day's Day of Days! Because that's Chairy!

As encouraging as it is to see Muir attacking Trump for betraying Muir's newly-held isolationist views, one has no guarantee it will last. And the other thing of course is that Muir holds these views in conjunction with (indeed, in support of) absolutely abysmal policies both foreign and domestic.

Which is my way of saying, I fully expect him to pull an antisemitism.

Only These Decadent Wreckers Are Keeping Trump From His Own Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact!

 It's the Day's Day of Days! Because Rear Window.

It's fascinating that Muir has remained more faithful to the idea that Putin can surely be talked around to things than Trump has.

Then again, Putin hasn't been actively humiliating Muir.

Would Moscow Lie To Her?

It's the Day's Day of Days! Because Last Salute to the Commodore.

 Watching Muir parrot the Kremlin's talking points, right down to the traditional Russian paranoia about the UK, sure is a thing.

Clearly, The Worst Man In Washington Is The Victim Here.

 It's the Day's Day of Days! Because Mr Humphreys and His Inheritance.

Muir riding out to defend Gaetz well after affairs have ended in his complete humiliation is most assuredly a thing.

And Lyndon Larouche Nods From Hell.

 It's the Day's Day of Days! Because Otto Graham.

There's something deeply amusing about the man who used to swear we needed constant wars against the foreign hordes reciting the tankie's catechism these days. Though as Larouche demonstrated, that line has a way of shifting from the glorious truth of the Real True Left to a reactionary rant in very little time.

Honey, We Elected The Business Plot.

 It's the Day's Day of Days! Because the wretch's destiny.

When power is given to idiots who don't understand how things work, but think they do.

"Always Fun To Spend Our Time Plotting Bloody Treason, Guyovitch!"

It's the Day's Day of Days! Because Avataro Sentai Donbrothers.

Clearly, as a man who has betrayed both the nation of his birth and his adopted country for a fascist dictator, Russian Guyovitch is the greatest True Patriot of them all.

Watching A Chunk Of The Cast Go Full Quisling.

 It's the Day's Day of Days! Because Kamen Rider Ghost.

...The extent to which Russian Guyovitch and wife push the Kremlin line these days is surely a thing.

He's Going For The Maximum Fascism Here.

 It's the Day's Day of Days! Because Kamen Rider Agito.

...

Muir's fantasies of his cast interacting with the powerful have gotten actively repulsive of late, instead of merely pathetic.

Truly, This Genocidal Revanchist War Of Aggression Is The Most Anti-Nazi Thing Ever.

 It's the Day's Day of Days! Because yours is no disgrace.

...

As we watch Muir once again find his way to the most morally bankrupt stance on any subject in foreign policy like a salmon instinctively heading to its birthplace, I just have to note that he has apparently decided Tucker Carlson just isn't pro-Russia enough.

Because Muir can turn on anyone.

Esoteric Patriotism.

 It's the Day's Day of Days! Because Gate of the Cat.

Nothing says 'I love my nation' like cheering on its enemies as they invade other states, and dreaming of the capital getting bombed.

Truly, He Is A Corrupt Servant Of The Rootless Cosmopolitans.

 It's the Day's Day of Days! Because flax.

At this point, the Evil Conspiracy of Evil is so all-encompassing it is essentially 'all of society that isn't paranoid wingnuts, and also, a fair share of the paranoid wingnuts who aren't quite in Muir's camp'. 

Which is less a conspiracy, and more just hating everyone.
