Dear Whiny White People: Great rant from a Native American Facebook friend

360. And they know their numbers are dwindling, so they

are in a rush to rewrite history and try to propagandize their children with this anti-government crap (which is really racialized policies); they want you to get your guns and hunt people down even if there's no reason to. The anti-choice movement is heavily steeped in the eugenics goal of producing more purely white babies; the pro-gun movement really about killing minorities if you have to, going after government if necessary; voter ID/anti-citizenship is really about forcing historically disadvantaged groups back into second class citizenship status. Jewish Americans are included in this; they are a minority group that typically votes for Democrats. White seniors who live in urbanized areas and thus tend to vote Democratic are also targeted. Anyone who could potentially vote for and thus elect another minority or woman representative, Senator, or president cannot be allowed to vote.

That's why it's so important for all of us Democrats to unite.

I've said this so many times here on DU that I sound like a broken record, but I'll say it again:

I know that many people are upset that our elected leaders aren't as liberal or progressive as we would have preferred. And I know that many are disappointed in Obama and the Democratic Party leadership. However, we have to accept that the beauty of being a member of the Democratic Party is that we allow liberals, moderates, and conservatives to participate. That is the beauty of this political party but it is also its curse and may become its downfall if we allow it.

And that's why the Republicans are always trying to create division. Division whether it's between the Obama camp and the Clinton camp. Division, whether it's between Jews and Blacks. Blacks and Hispanics. Blacks and the LGBT community. White working class and black working class. Muslims and Jews or whatever. The goal is to divide this party. And while we're divided, they're making plans to unite and galvanize their right wing agenda and get their people to the polls. They're running candidates at the local and state levels and dominating state legislatures, governors' mansions, judgeships and school boards.

We do have a choice: we can either remain divided and keep fighting each other; or, we can unite against a common enemy who is hellbent on moving this country backwards to pre-Civil War society or whatever it is they want from us. Choice is ours.
