I wasn't making fun of seniors-hahaha. I was making fun of you, your propaganda, and Praxis. I guess others could fault me for "contemptuous dismissive jokes" about someone with mental health issues but it's so much fun. And the wankers on the UC-list needed to understand why Tom and Praxis never give "public forums" except at Penn's tightly controlled 8AM meeting and at the geriatric donut social surrounded by armed Penn coppers.
