311. I didn't read the holocaust thread at first.

Fri Aug 16, 2013, 01:01 AM

Aug 2013

I was on my phone when I saw the holocaust thread and it wasn't loading. I was like "Oh, we had some drama and this is a continuation! Awesome!" But then I went and read the holocaust thread and it was clear that the OP was misrepresenting the original thread which they're mocking.

The OP should've been banned for their comments in that other thread long before making this thread, to be honest.

Unfortunately Russia's homophobia is deflected here regularly by Snowden supporters, though they've toned it down as I'm sure some of them don't want their latent homophobia to be realized.
