New chapter! The Greatest Commandment; Travis loses his cool over a parable.
“Come on. The Samaritan..? The dirty, treacherous Samaritan? No... They’re not even supposed to be in Judaea anyway. What was he doing on this road? The Samaritan was probably robbing and beating someone else!"

The thing about whiteness is that it requires this sort of vibe-y paranoia. What is “white food?” Does this guy know that Italians and their good weren’t considered white less than a century ago?
What is “white music?” I dare him to say Rock and Roll. Hell, I dare him to say country music.

Trump nominated a legit white nationalist to a top post at the State Department. I asked him some basic questions about his belief in the “erasure of white culture”. Watch this embarrassing, fumbling answer. Like he has never before been asked to explain his views.

Today I wrote about the racist accommodation to the racist response to Bad Bunny's Super Bowl show; the moral hazard of extending good faith to those who act in bad faith; and how alienating white bigots is actually part of the solution, not a part of the problem. www.the-reframe.com/hating-the-g...

No one can serve two masters. He will either hate one and love the other, or be devoted to one and despise the other. You cannot serve God and mammon."

Actually, Italians do have a history of poisoning unpopular leaders - see: Renaissance.
Not only did they bring a small private army, but among the waste of taxpayer money was BRINGING A FULL PLANE OF FOOD.

What a disgrace.
ICE may have handed a suspect in the largest jewelry heist in American history a free pass by deporting him before he ever faced trial.
This is the result of Stephen Miller’s chaos. Reckless mismanagement that undermines public safety and makes a mockery of the justice system.
