So I didn't catch who was on "Deadline White House" that just finished up a section from 9P-10P nyc area

The person (a man) was talking about toning down the political speech that lead to C Kirk's murder.

Just how much are people; Black & other POCs, non-subservient women (in particular), immigrants of color, LGBTQUI people, all usually the objects of nasty, to disparaging, to outright advocatingv violence upon them comments suppose to do? Just take it?

There are ways of being assertive back verbally without being too raw. But don't tell me (as a feminist woman) that I (and the other groups targeted) can't lash back verbally at times. They're the ones spewing the intimidating, even hateful etc language. If they weren't like that - they wouldn't get it back.

We have to call out people who continue to perpetuate racism, sexism, who want authoritarianism, etc!
