Gonzalo Lira vs. Trans Nazis: 1986 Called
As mentioned in the previous dispatch, Gonzalo Lira's arrest was confirmed by the release of two videos: footage of the arrest and a statement put out by an American dressed as a Ukrainian soldier.
The arrest footage is pretty straightforward, but the statement video is a twisted piece of black memecraft, exploiting the trans vehicle to spread fascist military propaganda among the Normieville woke. The same woke who are still flabbergasted about what went down in Germany 1933-1945, because it is totally incomprehensible to them how an entire society could fall under the sway of totalitarianism and actively support a criminal regime to the bitter end.
All they know for sure is that they are that guy in the famous photo standing firm with no fucks left to give while surrounded by literal nazis. While history begs to differ, to the blissfully self-unaware with no ear for historical rhymes it's not fascism if a trans does it or something like that.
But the Dispatch digresses... back to the statement by the American in military gear, which according to the uniform label goes by the name of FUCK. There was something vaguely familiar about it, not quite deja vu, more like a distant memory.
The coin dropped the next day. The Dispatch took to the Brickhouse library and retrieved its worn copy of Frank Miller's 1986 graphic novel Batman: The Dark Knight Returns. And there was the memory. Turns out the Dispatch had seen trans nazis before, just not IRL.
When the Dispatch first read the novel, the character of Bruno was just about the most outlandish creation imaginable, even by Miller's roomy standards. Now it's an actual thing, albeit in a lacklustre and criminally vulgar version. Witness FUCK and Bruno, side by side, and give Miller credit for his huge crystal balls.
1986 called and told us to keep the trans nazis. Who can blame it?
What? You haven't read The Dark Knight Returns? Here you go. Bruno awaits…
Dispatch out.
