    The extend of what rightwingers do to “own the libs” in the US always amazes me.

    Maybe the Democrats should just make an event like “We don’t jump off the cliff!” and see what GOP fans will do to “own them”.

      Dying from a perfectly preventable disease by not taking a vaccination, to own the libs. Dying from a natural disaster from which you could have escaped to own the libs. Dying from all sorts of reasons, just to own the libs.

      It is a shame that there seemingly is an endless supply of these hateful morons, because even with all the dying they still manage to control the US politically.
