Trump v Moby-Dick
Twitter Before Elon (History 2017)
I’ve become a real fan of @MobyDickatSea, a bot-based feed of random quotes from the book. It’s amazing how well some of these fragments stand up as individual thoughts!
After the [first] inauguration of Trump I noticed a pattern… random juxtaposition of quotes that seemed to provide commentary on the man and his policies. Some of these are remarkably good and presented below for your entertainment. They are also a testament to how similar our new prez is to the doomed Captain Ahab! [with apologies to Herman Melville]
You'll find a time capsule of maleficence and incompetence below…

Note that I left Xitter soon after it became Nazified. I'm happy to report that @MobyDickatSea has been resurrected (or copied) on Mastodon as @mobydick@mastodon.art.
