I won't be here much from now on

Turns out that two thirds of the folks who look like me hate all the folks that look like you.

So, we all hate Brown and Queer folks more than we love the rule of law. - FUCK ME

And I can't even pretend that my opposition makes a difference.

Love all of Yunz

But I can't stay here, not without shame

I have no reason to signal shit.

I also have no reason to pretend that my opinions make a matchbox full of gun powder in a forest fire worth of difference

Nice to meet ya.

I get the feelings you’re expressing. I’ve seen a lot of intolerance here, especially about political orthodoxy, as well as race and gender. But I hope you don’t back off. I value your voice.

Don’t let the big mouths take your joy. I think you like music, Curtis Mayfield ‘s music was the powerful voice of the civil rights movement. We’re a Winner and Keep on Pushing spoke to the youth of the movement. Old school but still relevant. We are all tired, rest and come back . We’l leave the light on.

Our opposition HAS to make a difference! Even if we represent just 1/3, we cant be silent. We can't let THEM define America!
We STILL won't - go - BACK!
