They want us to believe they’re “joking” when they do this shit.
They don’t know how to joke.

Wokeness, also die Idee gegenseitigen Respekts und Achtsamkeit, ist wie „Gutmensch“ ein Schimpfwort. Wann wurde eigentlich die Vorstellung, rücksichtsvoll miteinander umzugehen, so anstrengend, dass wir uns entschieden, „egoistisches Arschloch“ sei das erstrebenswertere gesellschaftliche Konzept!?
