That is how racists spreads...sorry you feel this way. See the legal counsels fighting for their business they worked their lives for to create only to be brutally challenged. That's a start.
Not 'only,' but it's more frequent. Probably because to get there and still be there, means the courage is built in. People across the political spectrum try to portray them illegitimate, no matter their record. Death threats, hate campaigns based on lies and now arresting them for no damn reason!
Factual!! People of color have skin in the game and their survival depends on standing up against this tyrannical administration. Sadly, allies can stand idly by as they are not immediately at risk.
No, I don’t know if it’s a for sure one. Every once in a while, I run into a MAGA here and you get a lot of hate here if you ever dare to criticize a Democrat. A lot of hate.
You have to BLOCK MAGAts on site! I have even criticized Obama for being to conciliatory to the right. So far no one has attacked me. We’re all pretty open to reality.
True, sadly. But often the yelling at someone is uninformed and u fair (for example: tons of people yelled a Chris Murphy for not voting to stop weapons delivery to Israel - while in fact he voted against it both times in the last 6 months).
That’s because we’ve struggled all our lives. White people of privilege never had to struggle and they won’t do anything that’ll affect their status quo.
Exactly! That kind of nuance-free, division rhetoric is always a red-flag to me. I don't trust people who put that kind of message out because it's a fracturing argument which hobbles any effort to build the coalition needed to make change.
All the white people you listed are not doing enough and I will die on that hill. I’ve been screaming at Chris Murphy, particularly for years telling him what was gonna happen. He’s just STARTING to listen. But it’s not enough. People are gonna die. They should be SCREAMING and they are not.
Criticizing politicians is normal behavior. They work for us. They need to be called out on the carpet when they are not doing their job. You will never convince me or shame me into not criticizing politicians when they don’t do their job. PEOPLE ARE GOING TO DIE. DIE.
I did not say you cannot criticise. Read your first statement - you said that no white people are speaking up loudly and forcefully. That's simply not true. Read, listen and support instead of pulling down.
They aren’t. The party as a whole is controlled by white ppl. They R making it so that none of the ppl like Jasmine or AOC can attain any power. Cuz they want them to shut the fuck up. Ppl are literally going to die very soon & they JUST started making a little TINY BIT of noise. Muting u now bye
I’m sorry, but he’s not doing enough either. People are going to literally die and they aren’t white. So you do not know how it feels to sit there and watch yourself be lined up to die. They are not matching the energy of this moment. And people are going to die. Soon. This is an absolute emergency.
I'm muted, but I still need to say that I cannot stand whiny people and/or people who just scream at "the politicians" without taking action themselves and often without taking the trouble to get informed.
I would have toned this down, less insinuation, but as I'm muted....
Yes, and many more. When we listen in to congressional hearings, we learn a lot about them. It's not limited to race. It's people who know what's right.
And I have seen that plenty of women have been more outspoken in general - I think it has something to do with having nothing to lose or less to lose - since they have stolen so much already. This is the result of allowing of so many Americans allowing govt to be on autopilot.
