    All these young brainwashed little kids. Wearing their 150.00 shoes with their 1000.00 phones built by slaves in a country that is already communist. Going to a school that teaches them to hate the very system that has paid for it all. You better pray you don’t get your wish you can vote your way in communist but you have to shoot your way out. 99% of you little shits have never had a hard day in your life. And you have swallowed the koolaid.
