Fuck yeah
Haha! You've fallen for my bait! Now there will be even MORE hot Yuri action.
OH SHIT! We’ve had a breach! Femcel memes have started leaking out!
Those "keep politics out of x" is so ridiculously ignorant. As if self-censorship is politically neutral 🤦♂️ As if avoiding LGBT representation is neutral. Just wait until they discover that Star Wars is political and has always been 😂
Keep politics out of Wolfenstein
"It's not politics if it's my politics!"
My dad loves to say “I hate how political movies are now”, and I’m just like “How many movies have you made me sit through over the years where the main takeaway is ‘The US military and government and all of their policies are awesome and correct.’”

Art can defeat the state!
never heard of star wars

That's star trek. Star wars is the one where the kid finds the alien and helps him get back home.
That's ET, Star Wars is where group scientists in Artactica find an alien organism that can imitate whatever it absorbs.
Thst's The Thing, Star Wars is when a mining crew discover a new and deadly alien organism.
That's The Thing. Star Wars is with the time travelling british twink.
That's Doctor Who. Star Wars is the one with the computer that says "I'm afraid I can't do that, Dave" and starts murdering the crew.
That’s 2001: A Space Odyssey. Star Wars is the one where a robot goes back in time to kill a lady before she gives birth to the leader of a resistance movement.
That's Terminator. Star Wars is the one with the planet full of primates that turns out to be Earth.
that was St.Ronald Reagan’s boondoggle plan to protect USA from Commie missiles
Has love always been political? 🥺
If you're not straight and cis? Yes.
Remember,
There's only two genders: male and political. There's only two races: white and political. There's only two sexualities: straight and political There's only two religions: Christian and political.
According to that I'm 75% apolitical. My family and friends will be so relieved to hear that.
People just let strangers into their DMs? I don't get this.

It's fun messing with them on occassion.
