If you haven’t seen the drone footage yet, I recommend it. Unfortunately, it seems that it’s only on Fox, and I won’t utter their links here. The video illustrates the situation of the country really well. It also reminds me that this unusual situation didn’t just drop out of the blue. It’s been building for decades.

I’m sorry, did you mean: “US is planning to invade Mexico.”
“US throws surprise military parade in Mexico. Hundreds of thousands of Mexicans attend. Traffic jam as spectators laying supine in pine boxes clog the roadways.”
Someone just won a long holiday in El Salvador.
Kinda flippant way to say they will get put in a US concentration camp.
I know nazism is the norm in the US now, but for most of the world, it’s still considered ghoulish.
The flippant comment is my way to use cynicism to express how utterly appalled I am by what’s going on in the US.

Thanks! It’s still better than Fox News, at least slightly.

I will never not upvote SOAD.
Except John. Fuck that clown.
Agreed. I can only imagine what their personal conversations are like.
Serj: Okay, this one’s going to be about the prison industrial complex.
John: Yeah! More prisons! More prisons!
Serj: Dude, no. Here, take these. Why don’t you go color something pretty while the adults talk.
John: [crayon munching noises]
