PDF EPUB} the Candidate in the Rye a Parody of the Catcher in the Rye Starring Donald J Read Ebook {PDF EPUB} The Candidate in the Rye A Parody of The Catcher in the Rye Starring Donald J. Trump by John Marquan Poe's Law. The core idea of Poe's Law is that a parody of something extreme can be mistaken for the real thing, and if a real thing sounds extreme enough, it can be mistaken for a parody (all because parodies are intrinsically extreme, in case you haven't noticed it). This can also happen to someone whose picture of the opposing position is such a grotesque caricature that it renders them unable to tell parody from reality. Reality and parody are further blended by the fact that something that started as a parody might turn into a Windmill Political that some people take as gospel and go to a very serious (if not literal) war. According to the Trope Namers, RationalWiki, Poe's Law was formulated by Nathan Poe, referring to the Flame Wars on Christian forums where Creationism vs. Evolution was discussed: Many users posted parody comments, which were followed by both angry and supportive replies. Poe phrased his law thus: "Without a winking smiley or other blatant display of humor, it is utterly impossible to parody a Creationist in such a way that someone won't mistake it for the genuine article." As far as we know, nothing to do with Edgar Allan Poe. While Poe's Law referred originally to religious fundamentalists, it can also equally apply to rigid atheism, dogmatic socialism or communism, excessive capitalism, extreme environmentalism, crazy feminism, hypersensitive correctness, or indeed, absolutely any other debate where controversy runs high and at least one position is particularly extreme, such as the infamous North Korean Twitter feed that got mistaken for the real thing. A similar notion was named "The Harry Golden Rule" by Calvin Trillin: "The Harry Golden Rule, properly stated, is that in present-day America it's very difficult, when commenting on events of the day, to invent something so bizarre that it might not actually come to pass while your piece is still on the presses." See Stealth Parody, which this law tends to undermine. Don't Explain the Joke is one of the possible outcomes of this law. Parody Retcons attempt to appeal to this, as does the "Just Joking" Justification. If a work actually becomes popular as a result of this law, that's Misaimed Fandom. If you are trying to invoke this trope to get people to believe something you just made up to feign legitimacy, it's a Bavarian Fire Drill. Many a "Not Making This Up" Disclaimer is used to avoid this trope. The Horseshoe Effect is closely related, as it concerns statements which are so radical and extreme, it's difficult to tell whether they're coming from the far-left or the far-right. Compare Doublethink, Insult Backfire, Isn't It Ironic?, Propaganda Piece, Sarcasm-Blind, and Some of My Best Friends Are X. To really turn this trope into a brain-twister, compare it with Death of the Author. See also The Tyson Zone and Aluminum Christmas Trees. See Indecisive Parody for works that can't quite decide if they're parodies or sincere and so attempt to have it both ways. The Candidate in the Rye: A Parody of The Catcher in the Rye Starring Donald J. Trump by John Marquane. Rich is fifteen and plays guitar. When his girlfriend asks him to perform at protest rally, he jumps at the chance. Unfortunately, the police show up, and so does Rich's dad. He's in big trouble. Again.

Oakland Athletics' Bruce Maxwell took the knee again during the national anthem on Monday, as fury over Donald Trump's comments continues to rage. Maxwell was the first major leaguer to take a knee during the national anthem on Saturday, after President Trump said the NFL should bar players who knelt during the anthem in protest of police shootings of African Americans. And on Monday, the 26-year-old rookie took the knee again during The Star-Spangled Banner before the game against the Seattle Mariners. The entire marching band from Oakland Unified School District joined him by taking the knee during the anthem. Once again, teammate Mark Canha put a hand on Maxwell's shoulder in a show of support. Oakland Athletics' Bruce Maxwell took the knee again during the national anthem on Monday, as fury over Donald Trump's comments continues to rage. Oakland Athletics catcher Bruce Maxwell, left, became the first major leaguer to take a knee during the National Anthem before the start of a baseball game against the Texas Rangers Saturday, Sept. 23. Maxwell revealed he's received threats since kneeling, including racial epithets and warnings 'to watch my back.' 'I mean, I expected it, it's nothing different that I haven't dealt with in my life,' Maxwell said. 'The threats that I'm getting are part of the problem.' Maxwell hasn't reported the threats to authorities. RELATED ARTICLES. Share this article. 'We call these guys 'keyboard warriors,'' Maxwell said. A's manager Bob Melvin said Maxwell's protest was a courageous act, noting that the decision to become the first player in the majors to adopt the protest came with risk. 'It does take a lot of courage because you know that now the potential of the crosshairs are on you and for a guy who's not as established, I'm sure, and I'm not speaking for him, but I'm sure there were some feelings for him that there was some risk,' Melvin said before Sunday's game. Oakland Athletics' Mark Canha (20) placed his hand on the shoulder of Bruce Maxwell as Maxwell takes a knee during the national anthem prior to a baseball game against the Texas Rangers, Sunday. Oakland Athletics' Mark Canha (20) places his hand on the shoulder of Bruce Maxwell as Maxwell takes a knee during the national anthem prior to a baseball game against the Texas Rangers, Sunday, 'I do know that he felt better about it afterwards because there's a lot of uncertainty when you take that type of step.' Canha acknowledged trepidation about his decision to support Maxwell. 'I had to think about what I was going to do to show my support for Bruce, for 20 minutes, and even then I was hesitant to do it,' Canha said. 'Even then I was like, you know that fear of, I thought about Colin Kaepernick, well jeez - I love baseball, I want to play baseball, I love my job and love this country, I want to be part of this country, but to live in fear. Just the fact that I had that small amount of fear and that small amount of hesitation, speaks volumes about that we need some change.' Kaepernick was the first athlete to take a knee during the anthem while playing quarterback for the San Francisco 49ers. He is now a free agent, and his supporters believe NFL teams have refused to sign him because of his protests. Maxwell also received support from NBA Finals MVP Kevin Durant of the champion Golden State Warriors. Later on Saturday, pop music legend Stevie Wonder began his appearance at a concert in New York's Central Park by dropping down to one knee in an act he said was 'for America' Wonder was helped by his son, Kwame Morris. Soon afterward, Wonder was trending on Twitter. 'More power to him, man. He's standing up for something great,' Durant said across town after the team's second practice of training camp. 'We all respect it, support it and appreciate it.' Maxwell doesn't believe his activism will hurt his career and said he's determined to continue with it regardless. 'I've talked to our superiors (Melvin and A's general manager David Forst) and they understand why I'm doing it and they respect the fact that I am doing it,' Maxwell said. On his first game back after taking the knee, Maxwell also received a standing ovation from the fans in Oakland as he went up to home plate for his first at-bat since. While not every single fan was on their feet, the shots of the stands showed many fans letting Maxwell know exactly how they felt about his actions in a positive and supportive way — and being as loud as they could in a stadium that wasn't exactly full. At the beginning of the game, the marching band performing the anthem took a knee as well. Teammate Mark Canha placed his hand on Maxwell's shoulder in a show of support. Maxwell was born in Wiesbaden, Germany, where his father was stationed as a soldier in the US Army. There's certainly a chance that other fan bases could act differently if more baseball players decide to take a knee in the future.

  • The Oakland Athletics Must Spend to Compete for Division Title in 2019
    The Oakland Athletics Must Spend To Compete For Division Title In 2019 Author : Steven Resnick It was a magical season for the 2018 Oakland Athletics. A team that appeared destined to compete for last place in the American League West. Yet, instead became the first team to make the postseason while having the lowest payroll in Major League Baseball. Unfortunately their run didn't last long losing on the road to the New York Yankees 7-2. For Oakland to compete for the division title in 2019 ownership will need to open their wallets and spend. Early reports already indicate negotiations with designated hitter Khris Davis on a contract extension. Still its first important to figure what the roster will look like for next season. Gone likely are Trevor Cahill, Brett Anderson, Edwin Jackson, Jeurys Familia, Shawn Kelley and Matt Joyce. Likely to get re-signed that are free agents; Jed Lowrie and Jonathan Lucroy. 1 / 4 The Athletics do need to depart ways with shortstop Marcus Semien who had his best season defensively in 2018, yet floundered offensively. Oakland is set at the corners with Matt Chapman at third base and Matt Olson at first base. At second base a platoon of Franklin Barreto and Lowrie is an intriguing option and a free agent signing of Jose Iglesias will solidify the defense at shortstop and Chad Pinder remains the utility man. Lucroy at catcher and Josh Phegley as the backup. In the outfield is Nick Martini in left field, Ramon Laureano will man center field and Stephen Piscotty in right field.
