      none of you are doing anything about it

      Considering that there have been multiple large scale protests, efforts towards economic blackouts, major shifts in political elections, and organizations working through the legal system to combat what is going on - I’m somewhat curious to know what your version of “doing anything about it” looks like.

      Tap for spoiler

      It’s violence, isn’t it?

        You know, I’ll take it back. There are some definite changes going on. I hope the rest of the country sees sense in the next few months.

            And the genocide of the Native Americans. Hitler used that as the inspiration for the holocaust.

            Consider me TIL, though I believe Nazi Germany was more into Nietzche’s ubermensch theory. He was Hitlers favorite philosopher and where the idea of the Aryan race was galvanised. From an outward perspective looking in, to me it seems the US are trying their own new mix of that, this “Jim Crow Law” and an extreme capitalist society. The US is using race as a means to invoke fear into their supporters who are currently in an abusive domestic relationship and are the ones taking the hits.
