What's your problem with cock-suckers? I called them PUTIN'S Cock-sucker. THAT's the problem. Don't pretend you care about queer people while supporting a regime that locks people like me up, concern trolling tankie fuck.

I don't like Putin, you are imagining me to be taking a moralizing position that I am not. Meanwhile Cuba has more progressive policy than any other country in the world and you would condemn its allies and thereby it to the fire.
