  • The US is as fundamentally white supremacist today as it was way back then

    Segregation; lynchings; slavery; these are all things that were systematically outlawed and struck down in our society today. To say that white supremacy is just as bad as it was in 1960 is an utterly blind take and completely ignores what we’ve accomplished today. It’s still a problem today, yes. But if what we’re complaining about is a spray-tanned muppet who is now being legally shredded apart, I think we’ve come a long way.

    Stating purely that over half of white people voting for the clown is also ignoring the other half who did not- or the intentions of the half who did vote for him. I highly doubt that a majority of the half who did vote for him were crossing their fingers for the next racial uprising.
