57. Exactly. And with the coming of Trump
Sun Dec 1, 2024, 07:47 PM
Dec 2024

it's gotten progressively worse. To the point where Black homeowners in white majority neighborhoods have had cops called on them by bigots questioning their legitimacy and Black kids participating in school sporting events are getting called the n-word from bigots in the bleachers.

Yet there are minority voters who voted Trump, thereby empowering and rubber stamping that kind of shit.

Then we have privileged prcks like Donnie Jr. celebrating the win of a blonde Miss Universe by posting shit like,

'Biological & objectively attractive women are allowed to win beauty pageants again. WE ARE SO BACK!!!' 

So yes. SOME of us know what fkrs like Trump mean when they speak of 'poisoning the blood'...

even though some apparently don't (or don't CARE).
