The line I’ve seen repeatedly is that White America is getting to see how African Americans and Latino migrants have been living since The War On Crime started.
Every day, we get to see another Rodney King or George Floyd. Wave after wave of police acting with utter impunity, doing unspeakable violence, while liberal leadership throws up it’s hands or turns a blind eye.
FFS, this was in Chicago. Blatantly illegal, breaking a couple dozen state laws. The mayor, the governor, the CPD, the local prosecutors and sheriffs… where the fuck are they?
It’s honestly astounding, as somebody that lives on the left coast, how many arguments I’ve had with people up here about this.
I think that they know how BIPOC have been treated, and much like homelessness, they want to ignore it and pretend it can never happen to them. The lie that white privilege renders you unassailable, is going to get shattered. We’ll see how many of them rise to the occasion and how many bend the knee.
The lie that white privilege renders you unassailable
It’s not a lie. We’re just constricting the definition of whiteness. White people remain privileged. I’m a white guy in Houston, where a ton of the shit is going down, and I’ve never felt “safer”.
But folks who thought they were “white” enough in Pasadena are experiencing something very different.
We’ll see how many of them rise to the occasion and how many bend the knee.
Hard to rise to the occasion when there’s a boot on your neck. And in a place like Texas, it’s very hard to find someone to trust much less organize with.
I don’t begrudge folks who bend the knee to save their skin. Not when the alternative is to simply get added to the line of crucifixions.
It’s not a lie. We’re just constricting the definition of whiteness.
The fact that the definition can constrict is what I’m talking about. It is a lie that white privilege renders you unassailable, because as we see, the system can decide you’re not white after all and haul you off anyways.
My family is mixed race, so I’m very cognizant that my skin tone will not save me if they decide I’m guilty by association. I’m privileged because I’m white enough to pass, but that evaporates as soon as people run a background check and my other name comes up.
Nazi America working hard on bringing the fourth Reich into reality.

Bro it’s gonna shatter. Lol
All holed up in their offices and wishing like hell it’ll be their turn to be able to do this sort of thing next.
That already happened. Stop pretending it’s in the future.
It’s already here.
For real. Bringing? Brought.
Next step is finding out what these 4 guns per citizen is about.
At least 3 out of 4 of it’s on the Nazis side I fear.
They’re about to be just as hungry
