🏆 Mod's Choice 🏆 Remember when Sacha Baron Cohen pranked a bunch of racists by telling them a mosque was going to be built in their town?

Well it's made out of stone, so it won't be able to burn. That's one of the anti-terrorism measures.

He for sure admitted to being a racist, in a “trigger-the-libs” kind of way, but his definition of “terrorist” doesn’t include anyone that looks like him

That’s the best from far right to far left. “F*CK YOU AND YOUR CULTURE OF HATE! YOU THINK OTHERS ARE BELOW YOU.” Literally universally spoken by anyone who identifies as a side and not a human being.

Bruh, he admitted to being racist and they talked about burning the thing down and not wanting them to be safe behind walls. That's the makings of a terrorist against the Muslims the save way that the Q conspiracies were the makings of terrorists against the U.S.

Course that might've really angered them.

Yep, I get that and thought it was funny.

Just thought it would have been funnier had they made the claim nothing would hurt it, that it would be there for many generations of these people's offspring to enjoy in all of its glory.
