@Dave @thatguyoverthere @11112011 @oxblood everyone is behind you on the Instagram sucks part, where you're losing us is the Russia more free than America part

@Dave @thatguyoverthere @11112011 @oxblood aint saying America is sunshine and rainbows but I'm not sure you'd want to move to Russia without doing a bit of homework

“A new scientific truth does not triumph by convincing its opponents and making them see the light, but rather because its opponents eventually die, and a new generation grows up that is familiar with it.”
- Max Planck
