"dumb, politically correct wars of the past are the opposite of what we’re doing here"

What the fuck is he saying? First of all, you gotta get rid of "politically correct" and start using "woke" Pete. You are so 2007. And again, what the hell does this even mean? A PC War? I am at a loss. Not only should these pieces of shit not be running government, they probably need to be put into an institution.
