People including like 14 year old dweebs should be considering the geopolitical and sociopolitical weight of each of their actions and only doing what action maximizes the glory of the human species forever into eternity. Right? I mean this is basically you. Like I get yeah it's be great if we all just righteously righteouses our way down to city hall and tomorrow we all woke up on Mr Rodgers street and waved howdy neighbour and nobody heard of debt, hallelujah!!!!

Like, this is nonsense. This is Wilder than the wildest Looney leftie gobbledygook, by a margin of infinity. You're a goofball who's just wasting people's time and that's probably the point. And if so then good day sir, you win I lose.
