The word you’re looking for, is “prejudice”.

Racism is systemic, and requires power.

Power to enact policy; power to control things, like red lining, and gerrymandering, the judiciary, legislation, and most importantly, enforcement.

In the United States, Black folks do ~NOT~ have that power…

This is how we can lie to ourselves and pretend the power dynamic doesn't benefit us, and then say it doesn't exist, and that white privilege *might* exist but we've had challenges so that privilege can't possibly apply to us. We are fucking exhausting.

This week Vivek Ramaswamy spoke at a Turning Point USA event originally scheduled to headlined by the late Charlie Kirk. But during the Q&A things took a turn as Ramaswamy fielded questions about his Hindu faith…🐆💀

FUCK YEAH!!! #punkrock is about taking power from those who wield it and giving power to those who need it!

We were robbed by our own fucking demographic.

Always the dog, always. Top hat or car if I couldn't get the dog. My first dog was a Scottish terrier named Cliffy 💜

Taking the Christ out of Christo-fascism, I guess? They're not even attempting an iota of pretense that they give a flying fuck about religion at this point.

Federal agents aren’t trying to keep the peace. They want violence to escalate so that Trump can declare martial law.

They shot a reverend in the head with pepper balls while he was praying in front of an ICE facility. If that doesn’t tell you where we are as a country, nothing will.

In my defense, the refresh lies!

I'm here for any and every single moment of joy and mirth, so I hope that doesn't happen but I'm gonna enjoy it now. Also, going to Portland soon to see my kid and seriously thinking I should bring the inflatable T-Rex and zombie unicorn costumes we have 🦖🦄

I keep thinking it's quite ironic that the alt-right guys were all about the Pepe the Frog thing and then laughing my ass off about the Portland frogging 😹

😭 that's so incredibly unfair!

Why can't they just block them from using these kinds of munitions and weapons, period?

I'll send Willow to nanny dog for you, she's a natural care taker 😹😹😹 (little ausshole just barked at me for not letting her lick all my lotion off my arms)

I think she's been body snatched. She just sounds so...rational and calm and reasonable. It makes me uncomfortable and a bit anxious.

I thought all government employees were required to be back in the workplace now. 🤔

Looking so war ravaged, my goodness.

What counts as early? Like, before 10am?
