Here in heaven not impressed
Impressive? Yes, but the truth is only with fire experience.
The West stood by lost in wokery and let it happen. We are doomed.
China may have a lot of ships, BUT:
the US Navy has something China will never have!
The US Navy has a ship named after a homosexual predatorHarvey Milk!
And that ship was christened by a man in drag!
Take that, China!
We should suggest to name it after you so everybody will feel delighted
