It gets even weirder when you include the way monsters can be class-coded. Vampires are famously tied to wealth and inherited status, when meanwhile a lot of Lovecraft monsters are "degenerate" folks from rural areas. See also murder-hillbillies, although they are at least biologically human.

I remember the one where Mr. Munster joins the local watch or something and is hunting a suspect based on everyone thinking the "weird guy" they saw was suspicious. The joke is that he doesn't realize that he's the weird guy. When I think of that in this context it does seem symbolic.

It could have been minimized by Trump losing, too. I guess if you see everything less than great as equally bad then all presidents do look the same, though.

Fine, but it's also bad how many people's political strategy was "refusing to vote for less than perfect and then being shocked by getting much, much worse than that"
