White supremacy isn’t rational, so sense can’t be made of it. They thought if a Black man could do it so well for 8 years, any White man would suffice, especially one who’s just as racist and stupid as they are. https://twitter.com/DebbieJordan58/status/1198248900139921408
What we’ve been witnessing in the tentacles of this thread is a cognitive dissonance that attempts to sequester the problem of racism to certain regions of the country despite the fact that the collective racism of the White voting majority all over this country wrought Trump.
It’s not only a denial of insidious racism in America but a refusal to accept that the Republican Party has been fomenting said racism with the enthusiastic approval of the White voting majority & the mainstream media to the extent that even Putin found a way to capitalize on it. https://twitter.com/docrocktex26/status/1036967050617516033
Y’all are gonna stay perplexed about why the GOP’s propping up a White supremacist traitor, why reliable allies like Beto, Wendy & Hillary keep losing statewide races in Texas, and why the White majority hasn’t voted D in 55 YEARS if you don’t enroll in #SouthernStrategy101 soon. https://twitter.com/docrocktex26/status/1048203654744948736
Y’all are gonna continue to be unreliable and unproductive in the fight against fascism and White supremacist terrorism in America if you keep relying on reductionist analysis that separates GOP extremism from the mainstreamed propaganda that’s used to sell it to White voters. https://twitter.com/docrocktex26/status/936975991083323393
Y’all are gonna continue to be shocked by the facts if you keep relying solely on the very same media outlets that sold you a White supremacist/traitor/sexual predator/crook for POTUS on the strength of how well his con played to people who hate the same people he does. https://twitter.com/docrocktex26/status/1084508946679955457
Either you want to be smarter than Trump, Putin and the GOP, or you don’t. Either you want to catch up and learn what 95% of Black women voters already knew long before 2016, or you don’t. Choose wisely. https://twitter.com/docrocktex26/status/898142089145458692
The fact remains that America’s democracy is being held hostage b/c both Putin and the GOP tapped into the insidious racism of the White majority with Southern Strategy socioeconomic propaganda, and it worked like a charm b/c historically it always has. Impeach and remove *that*. https://twitter.com/docrocktex26/status/944310741837996032
No matter how hard obliviously optimistic people try to convince you that the unique combination of each blue/red/purple state plus the “perfect” candidate will get us all out of this mess, the GOP and Putin are still gonna be peppering the country with bigoted propaganda 24/7. https://twitter.com/docrocktex26/status/1192881201549398016
Now is the time for us to take stock of where denial & obfuscation have gotten us. We don’t have the luxury of pretending all the ugly hasn’t been exposed when it’s that same ugly that’s refusing to act in the best interest of the country/world to bring Trump/the GOP to justice.
