I had this for Lemmygrad but it's the same thing, I was wondering why the fuck a bunch of gay western communists were replying to my comments with "inshallah" and "mashallah"

The European internet culture is people who are fluent in English hanging out on the Anglo internet and then doing the same things as there two years later.
