From Mongoose Distro

According to recent polling, the presumptive nominees of both corporate parties have higher “unfavorable” ratings than “favorable,” even among their own parties.

On the Hierarch Delusion, Abolition, and the Future

Sean Swain!

from June 11th

June 11, 2022 statement from Sean Swain
