The people outside of a country that they left for whatever reasons should not be listened to over the people who still live in said country. *Exile* politics is always fraught. Exiles have self-interests like everyone else.
no war no borders no cops no prisons no to all of this shit

The people who shaped WWF might surprise you…
From its earliest days, the conservation org was led by figures tied to:
