He's probably waiting for all the moon jokes to eclipse.

they've not even reached the zenith yet...

I knew John's campaign was going to fail, I just never would have predicted it would be over weaponizing moon rocks. I'm so glad he doubled down on it too, that was great. I thought after the initial wave of backlash he would just delete it and pretend he never posted it and just scream Gamergate if anyone tried to bring it up. The only way it could be better if it came up in the next political ad John does. "Steven Lynch doesn't care about filthy capitalists flying up to the moon to drop their expensive moon rocks on the hardworking women living in district 8."

"We can't allow a moon launched rock gap!" Said no General or Politician ever.....

Newt Gingrich wanted to build a moon base.

Brianna's just worried about Newt having access to deadly nuclear moon rocks, which the moon happens to be covered with.

The whole thing is full of weapons, you guys.

More jokes:

From my Discord chat group, discussing Brianna's tweets.

Everybody knows you need dynamite for an earth-shattering kaboom.

What's next, is Elon Musk going to blow up the ocean?

Oh crap, please don't let that turn into a legitimate damage control option. "I was only pretending to be retarded because Newt was being retarded twenty years ago."

Building some sort of a base on the moon wasn't even exceptional- certainly not like throwing moon rocks at the earth as weapons. It was a legitimate option of how to begin exploring into space (that eventually lost out to just going all the way to Mars instead).

Anyway, another well read blog picks up on the story:

Request to replace a tag, any tag, with "rocks dropped from the moon"

done

 

[MysteriousStranger]

Oh, moonbases...militarization of space. It isn't Crazy Town. She just a) picked an implausible scenario b) worded it badly and c) REEEEE'd the fuck out when corrected.

You know, it's times like this that I really hope the theory of Frank being a conniving behind-the-scenes mastermind are true. Just so I can fully relish the thought of him watching his "genius plan" crashing down like a billion tons of moon rocks

 

[Sissy Galvez]

John is still getting destroyed on Twitter right now. It's like a glorious firework that just keeps going off and off.

Never double down or try to run from your stupidity. You should own it but John is an idiot and he cannot stand being wrong or 'mansplained' to.

I love that all this coverage about his idiotic statement and twitter shitstorm completely overshadows Johns lilttle broken window harassment coverage that I'm sure he worked hard to orchestrate.

#moongate is about ethics in the weaponization of moon rocks.

What a happy day.

This "moon rocks as a weapon" business is about as dense as that "Trans Samus" incident.

In both cases, Wu chose an already shaky at best position, said it in such a way it sounded even more stupid than it already was in concept, then proceeded to try and argue with people who clearly saw the stupidity for what it was then tried to pretend it never happened long after the horse got out of the barn, and managed to be so foolish everyone could all sides could agree despite any other differences it was the dumbest thing they ever heard.

It's like learning from past mistakes is a skill Wu will never master.

The day my spouse started arguing with people over twitter about weaponized moon rocks is the day I quietly start packing my bags and planning my escape.
