Prepared food is bomb as hell so I support the humans cooking to evolutionary progress 100%

Okay so I don't know why people say sex or love is what makes us human. Lots of organisms in nature have sex or mate for life. You know what makes us human? Cooking. Nothing else in nature cooks except humans. Checkmate aphobes. Sincerely, an ace cook.

While in general I hate calling people nazis and comparisons to awful people of the past. We really have reached nazi levels of racism in America. People are calling ICE and militarized police on people knowing it may get them killed because of racism. People are going out of their way to put immigrants and black people in danger because of their petty grudges. People are supporting inhumane treatment of other human beings because they are "not american" and that is not ok.

The cover of the next Stern, a German news magazine.

The title Sein Kampf (transl. his struggle) is a play on the title of Hitler’s autobiography Mein Kampf (transl. my struggle).

The full translation of the cover would be

HIS STRUGGLE

Neonazis, Ku-Klux-Klan, Racism:

How Donald Trump is stirring up hatred in America
