Not going to fly

I mean... The only thing that IS going to fly there is literally progressive shit-lib politics and all I'm going to get from any of YOU is free money potentially-hypothetically-eventually if I do and believe what you want.
Hym "Juxtaposed to the delusional zealots claiming I HAVE to believe and say what they want! And to choose neither is to BE THE ROPE in a game of special needs tug of war. But saying that is probably 'not going to fly' either."
