    LOL. So are you planning to vote Trump and basically let democracy fade away? Because I promise that is what will happen if he’s elected.

      Nope! I’m staying home. America means literally worse than nothing to me. This is the nation that ripped my maternal lineage away from its proper home; enslaved, extorted, and exploited that family for hundreds of years til my generation, locked up my uncles, cousins, and nephews in federal carceral slavery while destroying my nieces, aunts, and sisters in every way that a spirit CAN be destroyed; and now sits there before me like some piece of fucking shit smuglord demanding my fealty like I feel anything resembling that toward them. I’m not washing my hands in your trough of blood, not selling my soul to the white Devil, just to maintain the lives of settlers.

      Nothing of worth can be built on genocide and colonialism, never for long. You had this coming; and you deserve it for never even considering working to tear down the master’s plantation. Love how it’s always breathless pearl-clutching and heading for the fainting couch about Trump out of you people like Biden’s not the exact same flavor of bastard, istg.

        Incredibly well said. My stepdad lost everything because of the collapse of the soviet union and balkanization. Friends family, everything.

        My other former stepdad is Navajo and well that should speak for itself.

        Much of my family is from Ireland and fled persecution from the British.

        That these gormless fucking liberals can’t imagine why we have nothing but enmity and loathing of these bloodthirsty genocidal monsters displays a total lack of empathy and immense privilege and comfort constructed out of the blood and bones of the oppressed.
