« This is not sudden. This is not "Trump's America." This is deep-rooted white supremacy aided and abetted by the GOP #Charlottesville

Trump is the outcome of decades and decades of GOP racism, misogyny, bigotry. The fascists in Charlottesville are the product of that.
It is naive, dangerous & disingenuous to pass this off as "Trump's America."

This is white supremacy. Those fuckers in Charlottesville are its footsoldiers. They must be directly linked to "polite" face of GOP
The "polite" face of GOP i.e. the Paul Ryan's & Mitch McConnell's must be called out and connected to fascism in Charlottesville

If Trump "opened your eyes" to that long legacy of hate & white supremacy in US, where have you been? What country have you been living in?
And if you are still using "alt-right, "then know that you are actively contributing to that legacy of hate and white supremacy. Words matter

White supremacy.
Fascism.
Racism.
Misogyny.
Bigotry.
Homophobia.
Transphobia.
Ableism.
Learn to say them. Words matter.

To be clear: there is NOTHING that I'm saying that is "genius." I am among MANY who've been saying this over and over and over.
And we will say it over and over. Incredible that so many are just now "opening their eyes." Incredible that "alt-right" is still in use »
