I’m not sure I have enough crayons, but I’ll try… ️

1) Who came for the communists, hon?

– Was it the left?

Think really hard…

2) And what did they do to the communists once they came?

– Did they ask them not to smoke in public spaces?

WAS THAT IT? https://t.co/6OGKELyuM6

1. There are different versions of this quote, but most mention socialists and trade unionists; strangely omitted from her version – why?
2. Why isn't her political party in her bio? https://t.co/Oju9ECze8F pic.twitter.com/JKtjVvjn0t

First they came for greedy bastards who fleeced the public purse whilst simultaneously raking it in on their second home
You don’t know what communism is… failed scouser

The Exploding Heads treated her performative rant with the contempt it deserved.
