As most of us have known for years, I assume most of us, that the whole maga movement, project 2025, Christian nationalism, its primarily about owning slaves again, mostly People of Color, this is pretty obvious I would think.
Or at a minimum the right for white people to abuse, underpay, discriminate openly against any and all minorities, for that matter, including LGBTQ, Jewish people, Muslims, the list goes on and on doesnt it. Oh, and of course Women.

Its a rhetorical question of course in that what could any person think other than, no fucking way, this is horrible, fuck this shit.
I also think it might serve some white people to hear minority communities and people of color etc. to explain just how this shit makes them feel, cause I cant know, we cant know just how horrible this must make someone feel.

And add to that, deprive us of the right to vote, or at LEAST, render our votes, inconsequential.

Kick in to the DU tip jar?
This week we're running a special pop-up mini fund drive. From Monday through Friday we're going ad-free for all registered members, and we're asking you to kick in to the DU tip jar to support the site and keep us financially healthy.
As a bonus, making a contribution will allow you to leave kudos for another DU member, and at the end of the week we'll recognize the DUers who you think make this community great.
