  • Delusional bigots

    Unable to fully grasp the concept of other people having view points and their own view point not being the only one. Unwilling to actually educate themselves on a system they so heavily critique and whine about on the internet.

And yes, I know one of them is black/mixed. This stil... more

  • Don’t listen

    Worst podcast I have listened to in awhile the hosts are idiots who believe the lies of Jill stein and are two of the most insufferable people. Don’t waste your time. If I could give zero stars I would.
