    FOREIGNERS OUT! SCHLINGENSIEFS CONTAINER

    Satirising reality TV shows, “Big Brother” especially, a dozen asylum seekers were surveilled by a multitude of cameras, could be fed and watched by passer-by’s and two were thrown out of the country through web-voting. The way fascism looks in the 21st century: Bright. Sensational. Interactive. Funny - and frightening.

    Of course the admin supports dehumanizing people for entertainment. How about reducing prices on something. Like bread.

      It’ll be funny and poetic until we all get to watch a contestant die for the first time during a prime time live event … and the crowd roars and the ratings go through the roof as everyone realizes … the gladiatorial games to the death have returned … and this time we can stream it!!!

      That is not true. Any immigrants that can spend $5 million are free to buy a fresh, hot, and newly minted social security card!

    There are really people out there who support this shit who think they deserve to be regarded as good people just because they’re friendly on an interpersonal level.
