I don’t think people point this out often enough but think about every single fucker that stormed the Capitol:
- An adjunct professor
- A lawyer
- A real estate agent
- A state legislator
- A CEO of a company
A LOT of these people, thorough their occupations, family connections, what-have-you, all had varying degrees of institutional power to inflict their menacing politics on people and harm them. Do you think a MAGA real estate agent is gonna help a black family looking for a good home at a fair price without regards to whatever the neighborhood is? Do you think that MAGA teacher or that MAGA university adjunct professor is treating his non-white students fairly? Are you sure that MAGA CEO gives a single fuck about creating a safe working environment or not discriminating against employees that aren’t white? We all know the power of a racist legislator, but even a single racist, with the backing of the white supremacy system, can ruin a life pretty effortlessly.
White supremacy is a cancer. It infests and infects every aspect of a person’s life. It is truly insidious.
I don’t know how to wrap this up conclusively but maybe this tweet thread will sum it up better
People really need to get rid of the belief that it’s only rural, poor, uneducated white men who are racist and capable of exhibiting the extremist views that are nurtured in our white supremacist society.
It’s doctors and teachers and first responders and bankers - all sorts of fucking people who hold a lot more power than being in a giant pick up truck tailgating you on a dirt road. There’s literally no escaping them. They made the system.

all of the numbers that are divisible by 17 sound so absurd. 51? 68? 85? ridiculous. 102? absolutely not. and don’t even get me started on 119
34 and 136 i can believe, but i feel like i shouldn’t. it’s 102 in a trench coat
