      I kinda think of them as double anti-systematic: they saw the bad sides of both the police and the street people, and they dissed both. Which is why their name, Public Enemy, describes them perfectly. I just love these guys, one of the rare people that understood what was really going on, and that unfortunately, still does.

Just agree with them and say you took it that its very good for you and boosters are next. Now they are starting to get weird health things.. But hey im not right or left but the so called left had to make a vaccine political. They are insane and just agree play stupid with them, they are now regretting it. I don't understand Why conservatives just use that to win a argument by some simple trolling. Why tell these ppl screaming at you to take poison that will hurt you and you try to change their minds which they wont, Just Jiu jitsu them about how its good and Im not a political guy, dont care for either side. This is how you just deal with the left side morons with simple trolling . Conservatives do mean well mostly and are way to nice. Now they regret taking it with complications showing up. Jiu jitsu tactics. They wanna poison you because their feeble minds believe the TV, then tell them how good it is. You kinda win at the end and i remember they tried to get family members who didn't want it to lose their jobs. So fuck em for being stupid and selfish. Never got this virus but ppl who took 5 shots get it several times in a year or 2. So it don't even work.

      instead what is popular - for reasons unknown particularly among caucasian male suburban teenagers - instead the message(s) that seem to resonate are b--ches, $$, chemical induced self-destruction

    Chuck-D is the man. Best rapper on this planet. I've been listening to these guys since forever. They are the prime reason I started to listen to rap in the first place. Not only the beats are powerfull - the messages they hammer are equally powerfull. I hope they will stick around for a while.

I have 9 children and the older ones say they want to make me proud by becoming doctors and rocket scientists... I don't care what job they have, as long as they're happy then I'll be proud. Idk, I just want my children to be happy. Like they don't need to enter adulthood and then keep trying to impress me. I don't gaf if they work in a supermarket when they're 32, as long as they're happy that's enough for me. There's more to life than just work.
