Watching Linus take a big public dump on someone who deserves it is one of life's finest guilty pleasures. It's like a Maya Angelou poem. You can tell he really cared, and meant it, and took some time to get it right.

Reading his words really slams home which side of the political spectrum truly believes in personal freedom and liberty. And it's not the side that promotes fascism and wants to implement a Christian version of Sharia law under the Ten Commandments.

All it takes to be a leftist these days is to not go out of your way every day to be a raging cunt.

In the USA the republicans simply are such morons currently that anything reasonable appears to be leftist.

I'm center-right in Austria but US-americans would call me a woke communist (and in many regards I'm more leftist than the democrats).

It's times like these where you're reminded that Linus is awesome.
