Post title: Don’t Panic, Organize: Meeting the Moment of Trump’s Second Term

Comment: I’m not responding to shit. You guys voted for this so I’m coasting by on my middle class white privilege from now on. I tried to reinforce the dam and everyone around me decided to blow it up instead. Now it’s time to sink or swim on your own. I’m not wasting any more time trying to help people who won’t help themselves.

    i’m convinced white liberals were actually hoping for this outcome so they could finally take their mask off and be the white nationalists they always wanted to be

    edit: where are they even getting the idea that voter turnout is lacking strictly because of minorities? makes me think they’ve just been waiting to pull the trigger on this one

      I don’t think there worldview is coherent enough. I think the sub-set of liberals who have gone turbo-Klan are reacting to the massive upset and suddenly finding everything they believed about the world annihilated on the anvil of “materialism rules everything around me”.
