Dear White People,

You know how in action movies there's always those people who help out the main villain because he promised them they'll be taken care of when his plan succeeds, but as soon as they've completed his tasks, he has them all killed?

Yeah. That's you.
The villain here isn't Trump.

He's just a goon.

The villain is white supremacy.

And you will all do its bidding because it made promises.

But white supremacy isn't a tool for empowering white people.

It's a tool for empowering the rich.

And they will kill you later.
If you notice how "Down with Black Lives Matter" dovetails with "Let Federal forces run our streets" dovetails with "Being white and free means ignoring medical science and going to work for the rich while they ENCOURAGE a pandemic"

You'll see they're killing you NOW.
The never-fulfilled promise of White Supremacy is so strong that white people will allow the government to brutalize and kill them, incarcerate them, poison them and force their kids into deadly biohazard zones

All because it's more important to uphold white supremacy than live
You're never ever going to be one of them.

They promise that you will, and that's why you need to follow their instructions. But you won't.

They will string you along with that promise until your dying day.

Which at this rate will be sooner than you expected.
Trump is useful for instructional purposes because he is precisely what White Supremacy would look, sound and act like if it were a single human being.

Look at him and realize he is made in the image of his Creator.

White supremacy.

You can see it in the flesh now.
You can complain all you want about this President.

But the Master he serves, and that you also serve by refusing to inspect and dismantle your own whiteness is just him at a societal scale.

It always has been.
When the Framers wrote "We the People" at the beginning of the Constitution, they meant the rich white powerful.

They always did.

It still means that.

Nothing ever changed.

And if you're not them, they didn't mean you either.

They still don't.
At this point, y'all are the only ones who can make it mean anything else.

I'm betting my life you won't.

Literally.
