"Global Warming"? Well I've experienced cold winters, THEREFORE CLIMATE CHANGE IS A HOAX.
"Patriot Act"? Well I don't care for the encroaching security state, THEREFORE I MUST BE AN ENEMY OF THE STATE.
"Never forget"? Oh shit, slipped my mind, I GUESS 9/11 NEVER HAPPENED.
"1%"? Well gosh, I know a medical technician who earns $350K/year, but they're still paying off student loans, THEREFORE THE WAGE GAP IS A MYTH.
"Believe all women"? Buddy, I have an ex who used to lie and cheat on me, THEREFORE WE SHOULD ACQUIT HARVEY WEINSTEIN.
