    Jesus fucking christ. It’s like these people are constitutionally incapable of listening to what normal Americans will tell them if they’d only listen. But they consider all normal Americans to be “radical leftists”.

      These are the same people you went to school with who failed 8th grade math, science, biology, history, statistics, etc

      They have no critical thinking skills and can barely read.

      Why the surprise?
