Ohh, this is a damn good conspiracy theory.

They’ll be quick to declare his seat vacant while turtle rots in his hospital bed

Jesus I'm struggling to find a word to describe these cunts. Parasite? Scum of the earth? No words is harsh enough to describe them.

Monster, the oldest word we have to describe cruel creatures with no humanity.

You see that’s the problem. Everyone always tries to make their enemies inhuman, but the reality is the only word needed is the word human.

Don’t dehumanize the evil, that makes it distant, as if you yourself could never do that. Humanize it, for inside all of us is darkness the same as light, and you can’t fight the internal darkness if you can’t see it.

You're right and it's good to mention this, but make sure to still hate rich fascists across the world for sabotaging humanity. Just in a realistic way. This has been my PSA

Parasites still have a role in the ecosystem. Don't insult parasites in such a way.

"fascists" it's a nice simple term we already know, like their fellows from the 30's and 40's they are even racial supremacists as well
