This is me in a nutshell!
I don’t hold with killing mimes like some folk do, but things like expulsion, revoking citizenship, and prison should be available
There's always something nearly everyone can do to justify existing or even to help society improve.
A mime is a terrible thing to waste.
Is he any worse than David Hogg, or is this a case of “a distinction without a difference”?
If the idiot socialist Barack Obama had an idiot son as whacky as he is it would be Mamdani...
