a)You don't have the opinion I like and you mention aspects I don't want to think about so I'll mute this thread or block you now.
b)You leftists are all the same. You'll see when we're in power. We'll show you how things are to be done. [Sometimes implying wanting to kill you for not fitting into their picture]
