    What did Brian even try to say? That he’d rather be an American than Democrat?

    Meaning that he’s: 1. not American, 2. considers being American an insult, 3. cares enough about American politics to hate Democrats more, even though he hates all Americans already?

      1. that being American and Democrat are mutually exclusive, almost as if the US government system functions in a way that conflicts with the definition. And I see it.
      Spoiler

      Based on studies of American politics and influence the people have to change it, the U.S.A. is closest to an economic Oligarchy than a democracy.

      Sounds like a typical Magat, other than thinking ‘American’ is an insult. Nobody hates what America was supposed to be more than maggots and I refuse to call them Americans. I’m kinda trying this new thing where I call fascists non American and try to take it back and see where it goes

      back in 2018, a couple nutcases from ohio wore “i’d rather be russian than a democrat” shirts to a dipshit cult gathering.

      this guy here just failed miserably in an attempt to be cute and rephrase that.
