    Yeah those god damn lazy Canadian teens, why aren’t they stopping fascism in America, or ending the war in Ukraine. All these lazy damn kids are doing these days is… Checks notes … Taking direct and effective action against the world’s largest cult, know for being extremely litigious and violent to detractors.
