23. Speaking as an American
Sun Aug 9, 2020, 02:01 PM
Aug 2020

As an American I say Fuck Religious tests.

Fuck Statues!

Fuck Religion!

If my representative pissed on a fucking Pope Statue and helped degenerates tear it down, I would still vote for her. I mean real fucking degenerates too. She could drag murders out of a prison to help tear the fucking statue down and I will still vote for her. My rep is not AOC but she is a woman of color and I am amazed at the level of bullshittery that these women have suffered through to become amazing humans.

I do not care if they are Catholics, Jews, Muslims, Protestants, Buddhists, Hindus, Sikhs, Satanist, or fucking Spaghetti Monster Cthulhuists. It does not matter. If there is a statue that is relegated to the dustbin of History, I do not fucking care.

This is about fucking statues. Fuck statues. I care more about the lives and well being of my fellow citizens than I do about some pigeon stained stupid fucking statue.
