Tina Fey Just Fisted "Donnie Johnny" and the Nazis, and It Was Glorious

And let's just say there was cake involved.

It happened on SNL's "Weekend Update" recently (and, yes, that show is still running). We honestly didn't know what to expect except this centered a lot around the most recent events in Charlottesville and how racism's ugly sphincter decided to rear up like a nasty bull about to plop down on a poor lamb.

Given that, there was no clue as to what Tiny Fey was going to do -- because she graduated from the University of Virginia in Charlottesville! So, needless to say...this was a big deal for her, and you can kind of tell from her tone that while she's waxing the hairy back of comedy with the best of them, her underlying tones were pretty obvious.

Many, However, Would Say That Her Shtick on SNL Was the Embodiment of White Privilege

And we get it: "sheet caking" as it may now be called might be a bit of a comedy fad to some, and she may be playing it for some laughs here and there. But the truth is she knows how a freakin' neo-nazi thinks (surprisingly). Well, she knows how anybody who wants to "peacefully protest," thinks.

Let's intimidate people. And let them try to do something about it, so we can prove our point.

Think about it. Come on. Why would someone peacefully protest like a neo-nazi anyway? What do they hope to achieve? Email sign-ups? New initiations? How many people in your neighborhood -- Black, White, Asian, Kryptonian -- would look at the neo-nazis and the KKK and say, "Hmm, yes, that's a reputable organization, let's listen to what they have to say!"

You'd have to be on some planet with Marvel's Mad Titan Thanos to think that, and the Avengers ain't comin' (at least not until you get out of the way).

The Point Is These Neo-Nazis and Other Sad White Supremacist Supporters Know What They're Expecting. They're Expecting Violence.

That's their M-O. Their goal.

And while Mr. Donnie Johnny (I'm just going to call him that from now on) might have made somewhat of a point to the fact that violence came from all sides, Fey nailed it as to how the violence showed up "in the box" in the first place!

I mean, if violence is coming from all sides, it had to start from somewhere first, right? Outside of the box (white supremacy). Then in the box (the protest), and then...pandemonium.

In a nutshell, racism is bad. It's infectious. To just sit on your ass and say everyone's to blame doesn't solve the issue of actually dealing with the problem. In the end, white supremacy won. The whole goal of it is to get back into a war. They did just that!

Hence Why It's Also NOT a Solution to Respond With Anger and NOT Let Those Neo-Nazis "Scream Into the Air"

Just sayin'. And it's not white privilege either.

Look, I get it. When you're offended, you want to take action -- violent action, if necessary. And the truth is you have every right to. But at the end of it all, what does it solve? Nothing. People get hurt. I can't knock you for it because from your perspective, they're tarnishing the name that is the United States.

But just remember: these idiots have the God-given natural right to look like retards out in the street, marching to nobody in an empty city, if they want to, screaming out "WHITE POWER WHITE POWER" like a dictating white-color crayon trying to blot out all the other colors. And they can do it until they're blue in the face.

While we laugh at them.

They have the right to protest. They have the right to say whatever they want to say. So let them. It doesn't really mean anything particularly if no one's listening.

Of Course, Everyone's Worried That They May Do Something Even More Drastic If No One's Bothering to Watch Their Saturday Morning Cartoon Antics, Right?

The argument is that the last time we let any Nazis "scream into the air," a Holocaust happened. What they failed to realize is that it didn't end there. It eventually ended in one nasty little war, which took the lives of many, many people. And while it was a just and righteous war, it thankfully may be the only world war we may ever see in our lifetime.

Let's keep it that way, please. Let them "scream into the air," because right now we're in a hugely different time than back in the '40s. While those Nazis "screamed into the air" a lot, they also backed up their screaming with a lot of blitzkriegs, toxic fumes, and concentration camps.

We drew the line. They crossed it. We responded as normal with our own patriotic holy fire.

Let these supposed neo-nazi farts try to rise up to that level even a little bit. We're betting they won't. As Fey said.... It would be fun seeing some drag queens take them all down during their "peaceful protest."
