Really starting to get on that leave the country train, this white nationalism is so explicit and I don& #39;t want to wait anymore for "respectable" folks to call it out because when will that be exactly?
I mean, just as a thought experiment, what could happen at this point for people to finally say it out loud? We& #39;ve already got camps and immigration bans on top of the pre-existing legislative and systemic racism
If they rolled the national guard into a largely non-white area of a major city and burned down the neighborhood, but called it a virus hotspot, would that make it permissible to acknowledge the white nationalists? I& #39;m not sure but bordering on probably not
Not being able to be sure of that and thinking about other hypothetical situations is revealing how much faith I have about any opposition chance to protect life, and it turns out that faith is close to zero
So, like, given that, I am admitting to myself that I and my friends are not safe here, and waiting around for the next act of inhumanity would seem pretty foolish
This has actually been a reason I& #39;ve continually decided to stay. A little stubbornness, a little willingness to fight, but eventually I might have to choose between letting them win and surviving https://twitter.com/vapemyworld/status/1253382191758946305">https://twitter.com/vapemywor...
I know a lot of this thread is at least a bit naive, considering what the government and the police have historically done to Black neighborhoods, eg. Philly 1985: https://mashable.com/2016/01/10/1985-move-bombing/">https://mashable.com/2016/01/1...
