LOL the sobbing at the end

Except for Nate, for whom ideology does not exist.

I really think this is true. They can’t imagine anyone believing in something.

Nothing that happens today will change the fact that the tide is turning, particularly among young people. The counter-protestors know that, and that’s what makes them so angry.
