    This is why any discussion of political labels outside of a classroom is meaningless.

    The Chinese Communist Party is full of billionaires; Hitler called himself a Socialist; North Korea calls itself a Democratic Republic.

    It’s like you have to go out and look at the people running for office and pick based on that, and not their Party.

      There’s some red lines in my life, one of them is not giving healthy food to anyone who justify the poor people starve.

      When I met him I wanted to know who really is making the joke, I was hoping he say something humanitarian or sarcastic, instead, he poop in my family, my roots and idiom because in his words “republicans of this country are fucking liberals”

      I justify my way to make humor first “with” him and then “at” him, more if he’s full of miseducation and ignorance
