The reality is America is a huge multicultural multilingual country, not a white ethnostate, and venomous white supremacist MAGA crybabies lose it whenever that reality becomes unignorable. We should always seek to increase, not decrease, their discomfort. www.the-reframe.com/hating-the-g...

This headline and framing illustrates the underlying racism and fascist sympathies of those who run and manage The Washington Post, whether or not the article itself manages to be more even-handed.
The Super Bowl halftime show, with Bad Bunny showcasing Latin music before a global television audience expected to top 100 million, will illustrate the nation’s immigration divide whether or not the reggaeton star delivers an explicit political message.

Every time Trump claims election fraud, it is a massive lie and the media should be saying that. Countless lawsuits, recounts, and statistical analysis have proven that our elections are honest & accurate. That is the truth & anyone claiming otherwise is lying. (1/2)

People say we can't compare this to the Third Reich because of the atrocities but we only found out about the atrocities after the fact when it was all said and done and we're not done with this yet so I am sure the worst stomach churning shit has yet to be revealed.
ICYMI: The US is currently holding three times as many people in immigrant detention as were detained in the Nazi concentration camp system in spring 1939 — six years into the Third Reich, and just before the start of World War II.

No need to imagine. The country incarcerates children as young as 9 years old daily in youth prisons and jails. Those children are routinely sexually and physically assaulted and also emotionally tortured. They are fed terrible food and given barely any education. This country has done this for yrs.

When you warehouse people without basic necessities in unconscionable conditions without a hearing or suspicion of criminal wrongdoing, you have created a concentration camp. People are reluctant to use the label b/c of its connection with Nazi death camps. But the doesn't change what they are.

This is when pathetic becomes dangerous. The US DNI, who is supposed to be protecting the country from all sort of nasty things, is spending time fulfilling the twisted delusions of a president who can’t concede a 5-yr-old election in a state whose vote was twice audited. Now they’ll make stuff up
