This administration* is trying to ban discussions of systemic racism.

So where my Harper's Letter Signatories at? Y'all usin your clout to push back against this ACTUAL CENSORSHIP as hard as you did when you got in your feelings about people asking you to not be bigoted, or nah? https://twitter.com/JStein_WaPo/status/1302043538075652100

Like, I think Rushdie will actually come out loudly against this, but I wonder how many others?

Personally just increasingly annoyed by people who willfully refuse to understand the difference between speech which tries to increase rights and quality of life for everyone and speech which serves as the groundwork for actively eradicating people based on how they were born.

Folks really STILL out here like "things that historically have fomented fascist oppression and genocide and things that fight against those are the same actually"

Y'all out here talkin "NObody's RIGHTS have been curTAILED murr murr murr," like fascism isn't a series of coordinated, patterned, and escalating moves https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2020/sep/05/trump-fox-news-journalist-jennifer-griffin-soldiers-losers

"NOOO one's beINN CENsored," you drone as literally the next day they expand into punishing people for teaching the truth about racism and slavery: https://twitter.com/cnnbrk/status/1302607961374818304?s=19

My most forceful eyeroll and my most dismissive middle finger to all of you who came into my mentions truly trying to act like this was ever going to stop with a directive about federal employees.
