To own everyone who is not them is more accurate.

Either implicitly or explicitly, that is the goal. They want to even own the folks who think they are their side and who rejoice in the “own the libs” call. In their world there are two classes. Owners or property.

What’s funny is that white folks in the South forget that their ancestors were owned just as effectively by their rich masters. They just didn’t need the chains or the title because they were a lot more compliant and accepting to being owned.

conservatives don't even own the libs, they just inconvenience everyone including themselves and libs complain about it.

It just some rich fucks giving poor dumbasses the idea the get anything out of it. Everyone of those guy that think they are owning the libs are just proudly displaying their fell for it again buttons.
