    I knew he was incompetent and bad. But god damn, the more you read the worse it gets, you think: how much worse could it get? And then the article gently tells you: oh we’re not done…

    This is a dumb dude who is drunk on the greatest power ever granted an individual in the history of this species. He kills every day. Hundreds, if not thousands of people. He has to be neutralized. How long is this going to keep going ?

    These scum are caricature movie villains. Perfectly happy to sit in safety acting like badasses while dealing out suffering and death for others.
