12:47 Having a knife, for the purpose of self defense, is a criminal offense in Canada. This is why the United States needs to annex us. Canadian laws are oppressive.

The more chaos you have the more the government benefits, and politicians are not looking after the peoples best interest they’re looking at they’re looking after their own bloodlines best interest, and enriching themselves in building their own family wealth with our money instead of actually being a public servant. That is the problem. This is why you need a big revolution around the world to kill off all these people that have their bloodline in the system for a very long time and these politicians are not anyone new. These are all from the same bloodline that are still in the system, just look at the United States almost 90% of everyone in politics in our country is a former slave owner‘s bloodline. How did that happen for 250 years they’ve been in the same position that needs to change these people need to be killed off. They need to be gone down.
Critiques government and political systems as corrupt and self-serving, with conspiratorial undertones about bloodline control and violent rhetoric.
