I wasn't saying they were, but being on .ml comes with a specific ideology that pretty much exactly doesn't fit with their take here. That's all.

I should have assumed they were trolling, it's definitely funnier than them just being braindead for real.

    Disappear teenagers? WTF are you on about?

    In America babies are being shot dead because their moms tried to steal diapers.

    We have the highest incarceration rate in the world, bigger than big mean ol' China with five times more citizens, all driven by legalized slavery under the 13th Amendment.
