I’ve been thinking about how the white moderate think about free speech. Where calling for violence and the dehumanization of entire groups of people is merely supposed to be pluralism at work rather than an a threat to that pluralism.

Meanwhile, let's keep talking about the organized, systemic violence against girls and young women orchestrated by Epstein and ask what Trump knew and did. While also remembering Trump's sexual assault of E. Jean Carroll. And instigation of political violence, notably on January 6, 2021.

BREAKING: Federal agents in plain clothes and unmarked cars tried to snatch 1st graders from LA elementary schools—told staff they had “parental consent.”
They lied. When pressed, they HID THEIR IDS. DHS admits they sent them. This wasn’t a welfare check. It was a test run for a police state.
