Today showed the commitment of the people who understand that fascism should not be part of our lives. Fuck that racism, nazi ideal. There, I said it. My family fought against it. What is wrong with people?

A white Dahlia Flower with pink lined pedals and a hint of yellow near the center of the flower. There is a bud just above the flower that is in full bloom. Both surrounded by leaves. This was taken in an outdoor garden in Washington State.
