#Republican Gov. Greg Abbott said Thurs he was pardoning #DanielPerry, the fmr Army sergeant convicted in the fatal shooting of a protester during a #BLM march, after a review board recommended he be released from prison.
…Unsealed court records revealed that he regularly shared #racist memes & threatening content in private msgs & social media posts, including descriptions of killing protesters & minorities.
Perry was convicted of murder in the death of 28-year-old #GarrettFoster, who was legally armed w/ an AK-47 rifle, during a 2020 confrontation in downtown Austin at a racial justice demonstration.
Cross-examination of #MichaelCohen resumes, an opportunity for the defense to poke holes in his testimony & perhaps trip up or provoke the state’s key witness. The questioning of Cohen, #Trump’s fmr fixer, is the beginning of the end of Trump’s #criminal trial, which began April 15 & might conclude before Memorial Day weekend at this pace.
During the #TrumpTrial morning break, POS #MattGaetz posted an obvious reference to #Trump's Sept 2020 command to the #ProudBoys by writing “Standing back & standing by Mr. President.” 🤬
a REAL genocide is being perpetrated
and people are talking about radical student protests?
are we perhaps secretly reveling in this livestream of cruelty?
is this the actual hallmark of our so-called Western “higher culture”?
#Virginia school board restores #Confederate leaders’ names to 2 #schools
The change comes 4 years after the schools had removed the names during the national racial reckoning sparked by #GeorgeFloyd’s killing.
Like other #SchoolDistricts across the #South, the county had decided to remove the #Confederate leaders’ names during the national reckoning about race sparked by the 2020 killing of #GeorgeFloyd.
Private donations will fund the implementation of the name change, according to the school board’s meeting agenda.
Elica Le Bons Video aus dem Februar, das sich an westliche „Linke“ wendet, die Iran-Propaganda verbreiten kennt ihr vielleicht schon, aber es ist stark. Insbesondere diese Sätze:
„You have opinions, we have experiences
You have literature, we have stories
You have ‚work‘, we have nooses around our necks
[…]
I‘m sorry that what we know interferes with what you think“ #WhiteSaviorism = #WhiteSupremacy
"The new map was challenged by 12 self-described non-African American voters, whose lawsuit said the districts amounted to unconstitutional racial gerrymandering that discriminated against white voters." #whitesupremacy#fascism
According to #Trump, #racism is a big problem in America. But not racism against black Americans and other PoC. No, the true victims of racism are white conservatives. If only they could get together and build a society that privileges them over everyone else. One can dream. 🙄
#Mississippi Gov. Tate Reeves declared April 2024 as Confederate Heritage Month in Mississippi, keeping alive a 31-year-old tradition that began in 1993. Beauvoir, the Biloxi, Miss., the museum and historic home of Confederate President Jefferson Davis, announced the proclamation in a fb post on Friday, April 12.
Does Nazi Tate Reeves know the confederacy was defeated. This is treason in plain view.
I didn't think it was possible for me to despise #ElonMusk any more, but here we are. This unbelievable #narcissist now wants to fill the sky with #advertising billboards. What a great supplement to that boring night sky! Instead of enjoying nature, we can look at Elon's celestial #whiteSupremacy and #antisemitic hate ads!
Given the soul-consuming rot of #whiteSupremacists, it's not at all surprising when police find additional horrific behavior by them. #Corruption has a tendency to spread, and not remain cloistered in one particular area. I think police should dig into the backgrounds of all these hateful scoundrels. I bet they'd reveal a smorgasbord of horrors.
"Trump’s support is uniquely tied to animus toward minority groups and the white people who align with those groups. An extensive study found that those who had those opinions in 2011, Tea Partiers, almost invariably became part of MAGA.
Very obviously, MAGA is mostly about putting people in their place – trans people, pregnant people, immigrants (you know which kind), Obama people."
"Many Nazis consider themselves Christian, which means that the bigotry in their hearts and the violence that they intend is the thing they worship as their God, which whatever you might think about Christian tenets isn't a Christian tenet."
"On the other hand, I can't help but notice that a frightening number of Christian institutions and leaders and parishioners don't do much to differentiate themselves from these Nazis, at least not in the way they use their religion as a rationale both for their bigotry and for practicing the popular traditional form of violence known as supremacy."
Missing from this vanilla article about "#paganism" in the UK armed forces are any mentions of the fact that all of these #Pagan faiths are rooted in #whiteSupremacy, and are adopted by #whiteSupremacists looking for a way to hide their hateful ideals from the greater public. Clueless articles like this play the role of useful idiot. Whenever you hear about someone in the 21st century adopting paganism, it's almost always a white supremacist hiding in plain sight.
April 4, 1968, #CivilRights leader Reverend #MartinLutherKing Jr., was shot & killed while standing on a balcony of the Lorraine Motel in #Memphis, #Tennessee. Considered one of the greatest Americans to ever live, he was assassinated 56 years ago today.
King III says #civility in #politics is diminishing, & he worries that more lives will be lost unless the nation recommits itself to #nonviolence, as his father preached.
"We believe we have to go into difficult areas, to use our platform, to use our voice to lift up what we believe is #good, #just & #right. And so we're willing to make a sacrifice" to visit #Memphis despite the painful memories it brings, he said.
