    Just a reminder that Jello Biafra from the San Francisco group Dead Kennedys wrote a song called Kill The Poor, satirizing the heartless attitudes even back in 1980. He also ran for mayor of SF. Part of his platform was businessmen in downtown would have to wear clown suits. Would have been great if he had won.

      hahahahah i know little bits about biafra’s delightful weirdness. i’d rather see a well-meaning bonkers ass joke mayor than a serious one who gets a bunch of people killed on purpose
