There's 99 problems with that person and the one you choose had to be discriminatory. Well done.

    Politics are volatile and world-destroying. Young people can be smart. Young people can be wise. But mostly, young people are neither. I don't give a fuck if it's discrimination.

    So, once again we are going to judge politicians by their cover instead of their stance? Sure has worked well so far. As long as you can drink a beer with them, it's alright, no?

    No. I'm saying this kid isn't a politician.

    Yes because he's too young, not because whether he's a bad politician or not.

    Well see, that's your issue there. A bad politician is still a politician. Someone interested in politics at the age of 19 is not.

    In a country where someone as dumb and unfit to be a politician as trump can become president, you can hardly rule out anyone from being a politician. Jesus fuck even a toddler would be more fit than him.

    Two negatives make a positive, they do not.

    Good chat, bud. Stay off the internet. You need some perspective.
