Hot take. I literally dont care if someone is here legally. I dont care. You will never be able to convince me that a piece of paper is more valuable than a human life. I will never be convinced that someone who doesnt have "legal status" should be thrown in a cage and denied basic human rights. No one is illegal on stolen land. I literally dont care why they're here and Im prepared to die on this hill.

I didn't do well today, I couldn't parse 'free' as a hidden word indicator, and when I eventually got the answer I had to go and watch the video because I couldn't explain it myself.

French Senator Claude Malhuret:

"Washington has become Nero’s court, with an incendiary emperor, submissive courtiers and a jester high on ketamine... We were at war with a dictator, we are now at war with a dictator backed by a traitor."

Please be careful with your words, this could be seen as incitement and we don't want the other side saying the same things.

So, Farage is a spokesperson for Trump and Trump is a spokesperson for Putin. It’s, quite ironically, like a game of Russian dolls. Except instead of dolls they’re ugly treacherous cunts.

Nigel Farage is being awfully quiet about his pal's Ukraine approach.
Even his followers are not really down with letting Russia rule Europe it would seem.
