    When you grow up, you hope to live a long life. At some point you probably get confronted with death and you start to hope that you don’t get cancer or something or dementia or whatever.

    I am currently at a point where I hope to not die of nuclear war or far right governments hunting me down. I came into this world to live a happy life, contributing to society in a positive way. Instead, I have to deal with unhinged fuckers like this.

    Nice to note this is immediately after Saudi Arabia ditched the petrodollar and sold to china in yuan not dollars. I’m sure these events are not connected in any way

    Interesting story!


    Line of “legally a different discussion” 👆

    Threatening the world with nuclear annihilation because your shitty failed economic system is falling apart is threatening billions of people. No one person or government has this right.
