  • I want America to prosper and I want to protect American values from right-wing radicals that are in charge. I’m very passionate about it. In fact, I live in a red state and I want it to just be better and no longer radicalized by lies and hate.

    I very passionately want America to heal from this illness of hate and apathy.

    If that makes me a bad person, then fuck me I guess.


  • That’s because people confuse nationalism with patriotism. I love my country, which is why I want it to be better. Others love their country because it gives them permission to be worse.

    To be clear, it’s still not good. I support any kid that wants to sit out for the pledge or sit or kneel for the national anthem. It should always be non-obligatory. In fact, I don’t love the word “allegiance” to begin with.

    But it would be significantly worse if the pledge of allegiance was to Donal Trump. Ultimately, that’s what many people are following, but it’s not default in schools to pledge allegiance to him or anything.






  • A white guy was filmed getting executed because they shouted random orders at him, and then his pants fell down. It didn’t draw attention. Then multiple black people were killed, each getting national recognition leading to BLM. A white man cracked his head open by cops, again getting attention. A couple white people now (Renee Good is not being ignored by normal people) are on film getting executed now and it’s breaking through.

    Sometimes it takes a video to break through. Sometimes it doesn’t. And sometimes it doesn’t break through at all. It’s unfortunate. But it’s not always black and white. Hell, Rosa Parks wasn’t the original bus incident. It’s not always black and white. But it can definitely play into it.

    I just wish people could be decent.
