    Shortly after 9/11 I was seeing bumper stickers on cars that said “MUSLIM HUNTING PERMIT” with a picture of crosshairs over a brown guy wearing a turban. I also remember watching the news in 2003 which had a live feed from a US tank invading Iraq in real-time, and the news anchors were excitedly talking about how cool it was and how brave our soldiers were. Even at the time I was thinking “this is fucked”
