Y'all hear that, Americans? Having opinions is no longer allowed. I'd ask you what you think of that, but I wouldn't want to get you into trouble.

Remind me what Vance had to say about our lack of freedom of speech in the EU again?

Trump is a piece of shit and his entire schtick hinges on the idea of people being so afraid they will comply on their own because he lacks the capability to force them.

Come. At. Me. Motherfuckers.
