But we’re not actually living in the dark ages (yet). So we might as well shed some light on what the barbarians have already wrought.

for the next 4 years the MSM of ameriKKKa will be complicit in the further sinking of stateship USA. Have hit the iceberg already, just waiting to sink, no survivors except those clowns that can get on their private jets to secluded spots still safe. This Titanic is sinking. And the orchestra will play on.... .
