I like West, but man, he refuses to call a spade a spade sometimes.

“I’m currently reflecting on how quickly things can change, and how slow people are to catching up to the changes that are happening.”

“Because Christianity and White Supremacy are tied together”

As far as “achievable near term” goals it’s pretty good. But it’s still only a drop in the bucket when you consider the who, what, when, where, and whys of gun violence.

Hm, maybe if we stopped complaining about microtransactions and instead encouraged developers to go whole hog on them (not to imply they haven’t been doing that already...) we can simply bankrupt would be shooters through all the gambling, I mean, “surprise mechanics” in video games.
