West Taiwan you mean?
Free Puerto Rico
Make it an official state
How about you ask them what they want instead of using them as pawns because you think you'll get two senators?
I won't get any senators because I'm not even in the US. I just wanted to be a contrarian to the guy above who is clearly just trying to be inflammatory 🤡
You must be a special kind of trash to think 'free puerto rico' is "just trying to be inflammatory"
Takes a more special kind of trash to know trash. You can kindly fuck off now and take your shit opinions with you.
No it doesn't. What a stupid thing to say.
Likewise, what a stupid back and forth you've dragged us down to. Absolutely mindless.
You have nothing to say but nonsense about how an average person can't identify trash and you want to high horse me about the level of discourse.
It's a common saying ya uncultured dope. And yes, you have dragged this down to shitting on others and name-calling because you can't realize that what I said originally was not serious but you gotta make it into some stupid online cat fight one to rub one out. Good job, you really contribute something to Lemmy and make this place better. Pat yourself on the back and wipe down your keyboard. I hope you're satisfied.
"I come from a whole culture of idiots" is all I hear
Yeah, I mean you're the stupid uncultured expert. What do I know if it's your your people I learned it from. Lol
