It’s time for the white community to stop playing the victim & have an uncomfortable conversation about violence, parental responsibility & the families raising the thugs causing all the white-on-white violence in Republican-controlled cities.
Maybe it’s their culture

The thing that bothers me most about the Trump and Musk row is atmospheric concentrations of CO2 just passed 430 parts per million for the first time in human history leading to more intense temperatures that threaten to trigger climatic feedback loops that could destroy civilisation itself.
