It’s not accurate, there’s not enough dead brown people and guns and the water’s not covered in oil and there’s not a giant yacht zooming in the other direction, away from this disaster.

The water is a metaphor for many things including but not limited to dead brown people, guns, pollution, and billionaires.

The women also need to be reaching 300lbs

Edit: Hey the average weight of American women is 170.8 lbs. Sure 300lb is exaggerating but that means there are a lot much heavier.

Downvote away, that's what people think of us for good reason

Like using Facebook and Reddit and Fox News and podcaster propaganda to get a bumbling idiot elected.
