Imagine looking at the secret police rounding people up and sending them to camps and thinking "Yeah, more of that please." Absolutely fucking horrifying to see that people like that exist and aren't so deeply mired in shame for being the way that they are that they're comfortable expressing those opinions aloud.

Headlines linking Black people and SNAP decrease white support for SNAP even amongst white people who use SNAP.

At a certain point, white Americans get the country they deserve. When the same trick has worked continuously since Bacon's rebellion, you all need to figure out what is wrong with your communities.
