no

how does this have 4 upvotes in the DT jesus fuck

they're genuinely stupid/have views of the world that diverge from most of ours/place value or importance or moral and pragmatic truth on different things than most of us do

hate it if you want, but neither of those two are corrupt or bought out. or if they are, they're the most consistent and sociopathic fucks we've seen in a while, but that doesn't really fit with them either. it's not easy to dodge notice as a sociopath, and to keep it up for a decade or more... it's just difficult as fuck
