I have two cute children and for some reason some folks confuse that as some sign moderate politics. Guys, I’ve been reading stories of resistance to these kids since they were in the belly. They come from a family of documented shit starters. 😂

Also, if you actually know the racist history of this country. Like truly know the gruesome details, you wouldn’t embarrass yourself with silly arguments about reverse racism. White folks made lynchings social events. Fuck outta here with the reverse racism straw man.

I am so sorry if some of you confused this profile for a call to unity. It is not. I’m a lefty. A big ole Black radical and nah we probably don’t have much in common if you have ever voted for anyone on the right. 🤷🏾‍♂️

I don’t think Trump has enough yes men to fill all these positions. That’s partly why so many of his appointments are laughably unqualified.

People are getting a real life introduction to how dangerous Klansman are to democracy and stability. Could have figured this out by reading books and listening to Black people but here we are.
