And justified it all with a very specific religion.

Fascists. Please don’t leave out the fascist part. They literally voted for someone who vowed to tear our country apart to not vote for a woman (somehow that equated with preserving their privilege).

The rage that white men (& many white women) are enacting right now—it’s not a surprise, but it feels over the top. It’s like the destructive force of all nuclear weapons on earth packed itself into the brains, phony tans, & blond hair extensions of all the FOX hosts & then spread like an epidemic.

And in the end hastened their own demise but not before putting the world on a path towards WW3.

Led by a greedy, selfish charlatan who promised them a bit of the white privilege for which they yearned. It took the form of lower egg prices. Which never materialized. But at least DEI was banished.

It’s actually a repeating history in the US. It’s the most US thing, because the US has a lot of cruelty. It also has a lot of kindness and a history of that prevailing after struggle. The struggle still sucks.

They were traitors to their sex. Instead of showing courage and acceptance, they said we want our privilege protected.

Fueled by the Iraq war and soldiers doing far too many deployments. Coinciding with Silicon Valley gamer/ tech titans push for their version of Libertarianism. Libertarian s that behave more like Christo-Fascist Hatertarians. Also, vast disinformation.
