Encouraging MAGA hatred and violence. Echoing their racist views. MAGA is led by a circle of foreigners. Foreigners telling MAGA to throw out foreigners. Deliciously ironic.

Though I’ve only encountered it a handful of times, the aborted form of the blushing rosette (Abortiporus biennis) is among my favorite fungi! These coral-like projections are not filled with basidiospores, but instead are filled with ellipsoid to subglobose asexual chlamydospores! #Mushrooms

Nailed it. The modern age of digital colonizers is in full swing.
If I’m understanding this correctly, X is owned by a white nationalist who pays poor people of color in developing countries to pretend to be working class white Americans to scare other white Americans into being afraid poor people of color from developing countries are going to ruin America?
