BRYAN PRESTON: From the Avengers to Coyotes and Nylon Rope: Blue-Check Ignorance and Intolerance Threaten Freedom and Our Way of Life.

What if the Avengers actors hadn?t defended Pratt? Would we have seen cancel culture destroy a good and decent man not for saying something offensive, but for saying nothing at all? Probably.

Recent blue-check stupidity doesn?t stop at the Avengers? defense of the Bill of Rights. During the final presidential debate, President Trump brought up the issue of ?coyotes? smuggling people across the border. Twitter idiots erupted with guffaws. Because they?re stupid.

Someone went and gathered blue-check reaction to the president?s factual and accurate coyotes remark. It would be hilarious if it wasn?t so tragic.

A couple of those blue-checkers are actually famous. Peri Gilpin, originally from Waco, Texas, played Roz on Frasier. Lexa Doig has starred in a few B-grade and below TV series and movies.

As both of them and all Americans ought to know, coyotes are human smugglers and traffickers. They charge poor people exorbitant sums of money to get them into the United States against our laws by whatever means their evil minds may devise. Coyotes do not care about the welfare of their customers at all. They care about cash and breaking laws. They tend to move the human cargo in the backs of trucks and in conditions that subject them to the real threat of injury and death. No food. No water.

Given Snopes’ target audience, no wonder they get the vapors over the Babylon Bee’s headlines.
