Everyone who disagrees with me is a bot of some kind, or maybe not.

It was so much easier to blame it on Them. It was bleakly depressing to think that They were Us. If it was Them, then nothing was anyone's fault. If it was us, what did that make Me? After all, I'm one of Us. I must be. I've certainly never thought of myself as one of Them. No one ever thinks of themselves as one of Them. We're always one of Us. It's Them that do the bad things.

Love it .

I've met them all on here but I blame our lack of mental health services for their issues rather than bots .

Is now a bad time to remention that I was in Russia for weeks at the world cup? Plenty of time for a good old re-programming.

Of course by telling you all that I have compromised myself.

OR at least that is what I would want you to think.

Russia is compromising the west by having middle-aged men post about satisfying bowel movements and the smell from their balls.
