I know, how prophetic.

About a year after congress made low flush toilets all that you could buy in this country I did the unthinkable. My water supply is my own well and my sewage system is my own septic tank and drain field (new and modern by the way). So, I went to Canada and bought a toilet for the addition on my house. I did not declare it when I crossed back into the U.S.
I guess that makes me an “international crapper smuggler”. LOL

That was a paraphrase from George Orwell’s classic book Animal Farm. “All animals are equal, some animals are more equal than others.” Sort of like super delegates.

We are all equal but some of us are more equal than others.

“Schools today take such great pains to point out that they teach
critical thinking, when in fact they simply criticize those people
and ideas they disagree with and call that process critical thinking.”

“The majority never has right on its side. Never, I
say! That is one of these social lies against which an
independent, intelligent man must wage war. Who is it that
constitute the majority of the population in a country? Is it the
clever folk, or the stupid? I don’t imagine you will dispute the
fact that at present the stupid people are in an absolutely
overwhelming majority all the world over. But, good Lord!–you
can never pretend that it is right that the stupid folk should
govern the clever ones I (Uproar and cries.) Oh, yes–you can
shout me down, I know! But you cannot answer me. The majority has
might on its side–unfortunately; but right it has not. I am in
the right–I and a few other scattered individuals. The minority
is always in the right. (Renewed uproar.)”

“I disapprove of what you say, but I will defend to the death your
right to say it.”

And low flow shower heads. But the flow restricter can often be drilled out. Sanctimonious knuckle heads I say.

Al Bundy had “The Mighty Fergusson”. Those were the days.

Not that I am religious, I am still on the agnostic way of live – I simply do not know -
but somehow I am reminded of Father Brown – a fictive person made by G. K. Chesterton – and his opinion:

“The whole modern world has divided itself into Conservatives and Progressives. The business of Progressives is to go on making mistakes. The business of the Conservatives is to prevent the mistakes from being corrected.”

Is she sifting through the trash pulling out recycleables? If so, file that one under “Jobs you couldn’t pay me enough to do.”
