    I watched the video, it’s nice and catchy. And there’s no racism in it. Maybe you won’t like it if you’re an antifa member?

        There’s nothing about “gunning down people” and the people shown “protesting” were mostly white, as far as I remember.

          Why can’t you stay at maga land like Truth or whatever bs platform you guys cannot seem to build? Go bother republicans and leave honest people alone. If we wanted the opinion of a fascist moron, we’ll call you. Bye.

            Because I’m a free thinker who sees no point in staying in some echo chamber. And there’s nothing fascist in anything I wrote.
