    There’s nothing more beautiful and pure than the religion of peace in its prime and shine. It’s 2025 and there are still news like this. Maddens and saddens me…

      This is happening in America as well, and theyve been very vocal about it.

        OK, those 3rd world religious nutjobs sure do their own impression of a religion of peace, love and understanding… Same shit, different assholes. Also maddens and saddens me in 2025.

          There’s still a lot to be mad and sad about, probably even in 2026. Don’t forget to feel peace and happiness from time to time, or it will eat you alive.

            Oh totally. And in 2027 and 2028 and…

            But yeah, i am fortunate enough to be able to live outside of all this madness. But observing alone already hurts.

      I think they’re just demanding them to be honest. Or perhaps those schools even have attendance fees?

      (ps I can hear that gif. Oh and where did I see it the first time? My jehova’s witness grandpa put it on. Amazing guy.)
