TL;DR: Kanye hasn’t seen his name on the Internet recently, so acts like an ass to get it there.  Kinja promptly obliges him.

That the worst possible candidate for the position may be losing support is not a winning position, asshole. It’s not even the bare minimum for human decency, asshole. This is you settling for slightly less than complete idiocy as a compromise, asshole.  Fuck off and die, asshole.

Not excusing the kids, but what high school administrator thought this would be a good idea? “Let’s give them the tools to be idiots and trust them not to be idiots!”
