I suppose it's kind of funny in a lack of self-awareness kind of way. When, after there was a riot due to a conspiracy about democrats underhandedly stealing the election and we're about to be thrown into a dystopian dictatorship, to then have someone say "sit down, shut up and just listen to your left-leaning betters," as condescendingly as possible now that they're in power.

Doesn't really help that Biden constantly looks like his brain cells are failing him, while his staff and the news media hivemind are desperate to coddle him. Lest he break down after being asked the difficult questions, like basic math.

Then again, with talks of "deprogramming" Trump supporters, maybe this will be their mantra.
