Utopia is a premature truth no longer!

Dystopia sells; it keeps us engaged and clicking. All the while, and much to our own detriment, we help bloat someone else’s purse.
Born of terminal discontent, an ideal twinkles in the horizon, and the masses stir. Utopia is a premature truth no longer!
And we have set our sights on it.

Unless we stop funding 47s regime, we are complicit in the pedo protection program they're running.
It's high time for Article II, section 4, we must remove 47 and his entire cabinet of deplorable enablers and bankrollers.

Heard of the #CactusCat?
This legendary critter of the American SW is covered in hair-like thorns from legs to branching tail. It uses its spines to slash cacti at night, so juice runs from the plants, and on later nights, it returns to drink the fermented juice.
