I never knew I cared about politics .Until a madman was elected.I never knew I was an activist.Until a black man was murdered .I never knew I was a Patriot.Until traitors attacked the Capitol.

@MadisonKittay My question is, has always been and will remain until answered. WHO are these men having sex with to up their body count? It can't be women cause you know they want women to be virgins.

@therobprimo1 turned phone cam on. did her bit, the full body convulsions did not involve her legs, no tremors seen and no seizures. she needs more practice before trying out for this role again. Might be useful if she learned the difference between seizures, convulsions and tremors.

No, taxes shouldn't be used to pay electric bills in Texas. Power companies failed to weatherized their equipments to save money and gouge their clients. Now they can swallow the bitter pill and absorb all the bills and also be made to weatherize all the systems. No more BS.

Why do you need to prepare now to vote? Because they are preparing now to block your vote. If you need papers get them in order, if you have fines try to pay them, get an ID if that's what's needed, register, file your change of address. Start preparing NOW.

1/11.๐งตWhy you don't know you're racist. You have Black friends, colleagues, you are married to one, you never say the N-word, you don't think you are superior. and yet somehow you'll do or say something you find innocent and people will call you racist. Why is that you ask?.

Let's clear this up for the likes of @MeghanMcCain. Affirmative action laws were not put into place so that minorities could get jobs they were not qualified for, but because qualified minorities were not given jobs when racists were left to their own devices.

One thing is clear: whether he was drunk, or high, or whatever. George Floyd would still be alive today if a knee had not been placed on his neck for 9 minutes 29 seconds. George Floyd would be alive if not for Chauvin's callousness.

@leezeldin What's your plan in case of fire? what if the shooter is one of the students? or a teacher?.What's your plan for supermarkets? Movie theaters? Concerts? Clubs? Streets? Churches? Hair Salons? Mosques? Temples? .Should we turn every venue into a prison?.

2/ 11.Because there is overt racism and inbred racism. Believe it or not the second one is way more dangerous than the first one. Overt racism is easy to spot and easy to point out. But the other kind? Not so much.Even Black people don't always spot it.

5/11.I'm 56 in 5 days. never lived in a time where Black women's hair wasn't viewed as a problem in school, workplaces and even movie theaters. Black mothers have had to do truly traumatizing things to "tame" their children's hair. hot irons anyone?.

6/11.Those places have dress codes based on how white people's hair look. Sure you can't do anything you wish to your hair in school, but no one has ever suggested you actually change the texture of your hair to be allowed in school or get a job or promotion or sit for a movie.

9/11.Today people you call woke are just calling attention to that fact. Representation isn't only about being in the government, it's about the destruction of those stereotypes that are so innate, that cops shoot black people on sight because all Blacks are dangerous.

@manformindy @notcapnamerica The truth is not shaming. That woman voted "as a joke" because to her it had no deep repercussion, she is privileged. She never thought about how her vote would affect others. That is the same problem we are facing now people voting trump without thinking about what it means.

4/11.Let's take something simple, like hair. Most white people find it ridiculous that a law about natural hair had to be passed in congress. It's just hair, schools can just not discriminate. but what if the schools and workplaces don't realize they are discriminating?.

3/11.You heard that right, sometimes we Black people do not know someone is being racist just as that person doesn't know they are being racist.We often wonder Why did they ask me that? Why did they think that? Why did they assume this?.We know it's wrong, we just don't know why.

8/11.See all those state laws, school rules, workplace etiquette etc. were made based on the habits of white people. Much of culture books/movies/art was from a white person's point of view. thus it's everywhere and into everything.

The civil rights act ending segregation was passed in 1964 that's 56 years ago. People like McConnell, Trump, Kennedy, etc. were young white men in their late teens or 20's at the time and you think they just "Stopped" believing in segregation because of a law?.

I knew we were a selfish country, but by god I didn't realize just how selfish and uncaring we could be when given the opportunity. had I money I would buy an ad stream on Fox and blast 100 ads a day of just the inside of covid wards and ER rooms. all day!.

It takes a special brand of sadism to send black children to schools named after slave owners. It's perverse in nature to tell blacks to forget about slavery while waving the confederate flag in their faces. It's truly hypocritical to turn around and tell us to forget the Past!.

@DanPriceSeattle @nevermore_007 The reason the living wage is such an issue is that people would rather have people they can look down on, talk about handouts, and charity cases, to make them feel superior. A living wage would cut into their holier than thou attitudes.
