minus-squaredeltaspawn0040@lemmy.ziplinkfedilinkarrow-up10arrow-down2·6 days agoThat’s technically true but I think if you called him African American he’d go apeshit
minus-squareUnderpantsWeevil@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up19·6 days agoI can’t imagine a conversation where he wouldn’t sound apeshit.
