Of course you have heard, "The squeaky wheel gets the grease." That in itself is not a bad idea. A little grease and the wheel is good to go, all is well and good.
But sometimes, lately often, the squeaky wheel is not fundamentally good and sound, needs a little grease, and there we go. Sometimes the wheel itself is DEFECTIVE and absolutely NEEDS TO BE REMOVED, stored in the garage, and over time receive likely a good bit of professional attention to get it up to speed, if that is even possible.
All this SQUEAKY CRAP lately from FAKE NEWS, ANTIFA, BLACK LIVES MATTER, OPEN BORDERS, TRANSGENDER ACTIVISM, DRAG QUEEN SHOWS, GENDER AFFIRMING, MY PRONOUNS, NO BAIL, DRUG USE ZONES, DEFUND THE POLICE, INSURRECTION, JANUARY 6 PROSECUTIONS, REPARATIONS, MASK and COVID SHOT MANDATES, EQUITY, ESG, WOKE POLITICS and CORPORATIONS, UKRAINE FUNDING, DEEP STATE FBI and DOJ, PRESIDENT BIDEN and his ENTIRE ADMINISTRATION, FAR LEFT RADICALS, quiet and weak REPUBLICANS, RINOS, MOST ALL DEMOCRATS and on and on and on and on is just that: SQUEAKY CRAP!
NO amount of grease will or even could fix that which is inherently defective!! Forget the grease, don't even try, don't waste your time, don't risk serious harm riding on a defective wheel!! Take that damaged wheel off, take it out of the game, relegate it out of use to the garage, and maybe, maybe, maybe some day try to fix that which is obviously defective, damaged, broken and beyond a simple grease job!
CAUTION: Some squeaky wheels are not only defective, they are EVIL! DON'T MESS WITH EVIL!
