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?

I am tired of submitting my will to the caprices of others; of resigning my own judgment in deference to those to whom I owe no duty, and for whom I feel no respect.

Gary Lineker on winning the National TV Award,
"It's not lost on me why I might have won this award"
"Aside from presenting Match of the Day.."

She crashed the economy and gets a life-long ex-PM’s expenses allowance of up to £115,000 per year, despite being a barely-sentient turnip who occupied the office for just about long enough to find the exit, after being shown where it is.
This outrage should occupy the media day and night!

Feeling proud to be a woman after the all female crew went to space & back.

How indulgent & reductive.
