RE: Prayers are not enough - Re: the Acceleration of Violent White Nationalism in the United States

in #blog5 years ago

It was shocking when the news came out and more when the manifesto was shown.

Now we have politicians saying that it is video games and the internet as well as mental illness is to blame for these incidents. That politician is Trump by the way.

Yet we have seen an uptick of violence all in the name of making America great again. The racist feed coming from the White House is making racism acceptable and showing patriotism to America, a White America.

Buzzwords like White Nationalism in an effort to hide what it is truly which is White Supremacy.

Sad day to see this crap happening.

Sort:  

Holy smokes.

I see a totally different reality than you.

Which people with white skin color are to blame for recent shootings?

People are mistakenly, I hope, interpreting white supremacy for being synonymous with patriotism or conservativism. That is nearly the majority of this country.

As I understand, a very small perportion self identifies as white supremacists who support violence and genocide. Am I wrong?

Religious groups often have teachings about things they are not allowed to do with people outside of their group. People outside these religions and cults often feel persecuted by these racist teachings. In a free country, this is supposed to be protected, as long as they follow the law. Am I wrong? Controlling what people are not allowed to believe or think about is what happens in North Korea.

Now we have politicians saying that it is video games and the internet as well as mental illness is to blame for these incidents. That politician is Trump by the way.

yes always a need to deflect against what they actually said in their manifestos. you hit it spot on. Trump is fueling the flames.
