send them all to hell,

    Back in my day we used to call trying to eliminate an entire nation and its future a “genocide”

          sry I’ve recently had to deal with some rough moderation making me second guess anything I say. so I recently started adding /s even where not needed because sometimes I feel like my absurd shitpost comments still get taken seriously

      It’s not about whether he would do it, it’s about the absolute absurdity that he would even say things like that. In what I assume would be a relatively “normal” world even just uttering such a threat should could with swift and extreme consequences. Like a January 6th but with more people and they’re all trying to hang him.

        I think that ship has long sailed lmao, wasn’t this the same turd that was talking people’s guns a decade ago? And nobody batted an eye

        The world isn’t normal, so it would be insane of me to act normal, thus I toss this handful of sand into the face of the grotesque elite

          yeah deep down I know that thinking the world as normal is foolish. but I also don’t want to accept it; like… something’s gotta give? but I also know shit’s gonna stay the way it is for now… so finding a coping mechanism is important. and idk I really like hello kitty, especially halloween stuff, kinda soothing lately

      We know he’s likely going to Taco for many reasons… but we can all agree that if a Democrat or even not a MAGA said it, they’d have immediately started calls for impeachment and article 25 his ass. Here, it’s just another Tuesday.
