The media is getting to a point where it's becoming so ridiculous that it will become a side show in society. NO ONE is going to take GQ seriously after this, and I see so many outlets following suit. https://t.co/U27uk5Oa1A

This is the magazine cover I would have expected to see an Elitist read in one of the Hunger Game movies. Total crap.

New Masculinity? Wearing a sleeping bag as a dress? Oh, I get it. Because of the green new deal we will all be sleeping outside. #newmasculinity #sleepingbagdress #GreenNewDeal https://t.co/njJRgZeUTy
