OK, Anons, so last night some "Anon" is using all sorts of tricks to get me to watch the livestream of Pompeo and to push it. For instance, the pic above appeared while the livestream was on, and was obviously FROM the livestream, so it was seemingly "Anon" and I kept pushing it. It all started with some "Anon" mentioning that Pompeo was speaking at the Claremont Institute 40th anniversary gala, and Claremont Institute happens to be where "The Flight 93 Election" was first published.
I watched the speech thinking it would say something big, and although Pompeo did say "reawakening" I didn't catch anything major. But there was one very odd line that I caught right away, but didn't really understand until a bit later. Pompeo started off by thanking people he worked with who were affiliated with Claremont Institute, including his two speechwriters, and he specifically said there were responsible for his joke about Leo Strauss. However… he did not end up making a joke about Leo Straus.
Once I thought about this after the fact, I realized THAT WAS THE JOKE. I ALREADY knew what the Leo Strauss reference was about. This is because I was watching the speech because I thought Pompeo was going to make some reference to Michael Anton and "The Flight 93 Election". And he DID and I caught it because I understood that the "Leo Strauss" reference WAS a reference to Anton. I am in on the joke and Pompeo is able to use coded language to make a joke that I will grasp. (Leo Strauss was a political philosopher known for studying how historical political writers used coded language to communicate in ways that allow them to avoid persecution and censorship.)
Now, why is Pompeo making this joke that very few people are going to get? We'll get there. I posted my analysis of the joke, and "Anon" responds with a comic panel suggesting that Strauss is a bad dude who influenced the neocons who had a negative view of ordinary Americans and tried to push totalitarianism:.

Notice that the comic itself suggests that this is a MISUSE by the neocons. I responded by noting that this might involve the difference between "West Coast" and "East Coast" Straussians, and Anon responds with "Am vaguely remembering a vivid and loaded direct quote."
Now, there was no such quote in Pompeo's speech, but I did say something about this issue once in a long multi-part post explaining why Michael Anton is "Q" and why the "Let's Roll!" meme will be used by POTUS. Here is the whole paragraph:
"Finally, and most decisively, Anton is a West-Coast Straussian. Straussianism itself is a political philosophy that gives particular emphasis to the idea that political thinkers, in certain times where persecution is likely, must present their ideas esoterically, via hidden meanings. West-Coast Straussianism was a particularly pro-American version of Straussianism touted by Anton's teacher Harry Jaffa (who wrote Goldwater's "extremism in the defense of liberty" speech). The most crucial historical figure when it comes to esoteric political writing is Plato, and anyone who has engaged in deep reading of Plato will recognize moves that Q makes."
THe upshot is that "Anon" is probably referencing my own words. Here is the longer writeup where that appears:

Moreover, "Anon" is probably telling me to push the longer writeup of which that is a part, so I will post the synopsis of this in the followup.
