      If Republicans didn’t constantly try to make being queer synonymous with pedophilia, this kind of statement wouldn’t be ironic and funny. Unfortunately, there’s an entire political party trying to make being queer synonymous with pedophilia, so this joke hits.

          What are you even saying. Government is the function of organized communities that will most dictate the quality of your life within one.

          It’s not tribalistic to take a political stance, it’s common sense.

          I hate sports, but go off. Must be nice having no opinions except that others are silly for having them.
