This is why Black Lives Matter is treated like a project obsessed with destroying America.

The old lie requires that they are treated like dangerous people of color who will murder and destroy if their traitorous manipulators have their way.

This alternate reality, where the Right is drowning in conspiracy theories, tells its believers they are in an invisible war.

So. They take to the streets. They run over protesters. Shoot them. Throw bombs. Because they believe they're in an invisible war.

Trump's base truly believes they are fighting a holy war for America's survival, a war that is, in totality, a racial war between whites and people of color that has been raging since the founding of the country.

This myth is required within the white supremacist worldview.

The disturbing truth is that this alternate reality and invisible war Trump and Republicans sell for power and profit is the same one white terrorists believe.

They have peddled this myth for decades and want desperately to plunge America into a fascist dictatorship.

Around the country, in incidents the news rarely reports and almost always refuses to put into context, white terrorists have murdered people and plotted a military takeover of the United States.

It is a massive, growing movement that threatens all of us.

Law enforcement and the state both rely on the myths of white supremacy and any investigation into white terrorism would mean a self-diagnosis.

What we are seeing around America is a continuation of a dark and blood history that many Americans know nothing about.

White supremacist paranoia and conspiracy theories have led to unbelievable violence, bloodshed, and murder. This is our history and we must learn it.
