The day they realise it is not all about them...



...will be a great day for the rest of us. They have told us it is all about them for a millenia. The privileged whiny waaahhhh what about MY RIGHTS crowd, always try and steal the narrative and make it about them. It is as good an example of undeserved privilege as any.
