There's a resource that explains it, included as part of our collection (link in bio)
now however it is much more difficult to ignore this reality
Here it is, the intersection between capitalism and racism.
This is the result. Destroy everything to reinstate white dominance.
It's like Brexit, a vote that hurts economic wellbeing driven significantly by stoking racist and anti-immigrant sentiment.

Fuck the rich.
They don't deserve nor need tax breaks.
The rest of us do.
