It really cannot be emphasized enough that the Holocaust was modeled after the American campaign to displace and exterminate Indigenous people. This country drew up that blueprint.
Fascism isn’t new to the US. It’s always been here. It’s built into this country‘s DNA. Bigotry is our primary export. We just quantified and qualified it under the false title of ”freedom” because that’s what the masses here want & what (yht) ppl with guns & bibles as their personality like to hear
No kidding. I remember when our local government wanted record stores to track names of everyone buying metal records. (Maybe rap too and I’ve just forgotten?)
(Why do I remember this? A good friend of mine owned a record store, and as a new librarian I had some strong opinions, and ideas.)

this. anytime I point out why we don't have shit for our taxes is because white people don't want Black people to have anything for "free," i get the deer-in-headlights look.
The way some of your favorite white leftists can't bear any acknowledgement of the impact of racism on the development of the modern police state should be studied. Not by me though, I've seen enough.

I have this weird new habit of reading 'low' in conjunction with anything as 'ow' pronounced as in 'ouch' or Lao. like Glasgow is Glasgao. I have no idea why but it's annoying me, lol.
