2024 is going to be the beginning of the end of us all
No I’m not catastrophising.
The world is slowly lurching towards a fully fascist led America, India, Hungary, Russia, Netherlands, Germany, Italy and Argentina.

My point is, nazi is a shoe. The impressionable traumatized dude is the foot looking for a shoe.
