La hegemonía cultural de la izquierda hace que te puedan llegar a quitar la vida por llevar unos tirantes con la bandera de tu país, que solo haya cómicos de izquierda, que no puedas decir que votas a ciertos partidos, o que yo tenga que cobijarme bajo seudónimo para no perder el trabajo.

El pensamiento único se ha impuesto así hasta estigmatizar con insultos (fascista, ultraderecha, neoliberal, facha…) toda idea alternativa. Este manual responde a muchas...

Minutes later a mushroom-shaped blast lit North Star Bay, scattering ...
