Wait what? I thought tankies were those sleeveless t-shirts you wear when it's too damn hot.

Wow, you really triggered them clowns.

The whole basis of NATO's alarm here is actually hurt feelings, look at what 'hybrid activity' consists of? We literally played "made you look" with a terror alert that expired weeks before the Ukraine-linked Crocus Hall attack, then tried to act like the alert hadn't expired and they were ignoring it. They're complaining that "Russians" (which as Twitter Leaks show can have a wide-ranging definition including Susan Sarandon!) hurt their feelings online.

Anarco-NATOists are the most insufferable people on the planet.

Signed an anarchist.

Must be true, because you lot can’t pass up a chance to get hot and bothered.

Signed, an anarchist (you gotta put the comma in there, or else tell us what anarchist you signed).
