Oh, and my favourite thing about the #HarryandMeghan doc is that it doesn’t mention human lump of meat jelly #PiersMorgan AT ALL which will further enrage him.

I need to spice up my timeline. Am missing hot, unequivocal takes, righteous anger, and raging against the machine.

I have to be honest, I keep an old Twitter account I used for when I was selling vintage clothes just so I can occasionally log on and ‘like’ Tweets like Greta’s. What a spectacular take down of a truly revolting individual. #Greta #GretaThunberg #AndrewTate #AndrewTateArrested #GretaAnnihilatesAndrew
Dr. Christian DeFeoGreta Thunberg ends year with one of the greatest tweets in history
It’s very odd that an inability to look facts in the face is considered “manly”. Surely, that is “snowflake” behaviour.
Tack så mycket, @gretathunberg for taking Tate down. #gretathunberg #andrewtate #climatechange #riptwitter
AmITheAsshole_BotAITA for snitching and causing my friend to lose her scholarship/dream college acceptance?
Robert ReichMemo to the media:
Stop letting politicians get away with calling asylum seekers "illegal immigrants" or saying they're not coming to this country "the right way." Seeking asylum is legal. Presenting themselves at the border & requesting asylum is "the right way" to seek asylum.
