Do yall remember this?
In 2008, Barack and Michelle Obama gave each other a fist bump on the campaign trail.
Do you remember the controversy?

FOX News referred to it as a "terrorist fist bump."

"They're scared they're inferior"... No Thomas Jefferson very specifically stated he was terrified that enslaved ppl would want RETRIBUTION. Wasn't about inferiority.
Hell, Frederick Hoffman conviced them they were superior, to kill us.

On this day in 1831, an enslaved Black man named Nat Turner was hanged in Jerusalem, Virginia, after being convicted of leading a revolt against slavery.

Black voices have been removed from the MSM because the same people who have always been scared of the truth and us, are still alarmingly scared.
I can recall a civil war and an insurrection, but never race wars in America. 🧐🧐🧐
You’ve been so horrible until you’ve scared yourself!!

“I'm terrified at the moral apathy, the death of the heart, which is happening in my country. These people have deluded themselves for so long that they really don't think I'm human. And I base this on their conduct, not on what they say..."

But it is?
In our puritan culture, sex is so shamed into the corners and margins of society that ppl can't even be transgender or gay without intercourse being the first part about them that the world sees.
It's exhausting how often ppl focus on sex as a bad thing. It's part of humanity.

It isn't talked about enough how sex can be an unhealthy coping mechanism.
Too many people use it as a mean of escapism instead of getting to the root of the problem.

This would reshape political landscapes, and that's why they don't do it.
