You’re not special. You’re not better. You’re not immune. Bad things can happen to YOU too.

@isotope239 Yep. Life is a crazy thing. You never know what can happen. I know some think they have it all under control, but that’s usually temporary. It’s a rollercoaster.

@thepoliticalcat I feel the same way. There’s something to be said for the energy we put out there.

Excluding Black voters is what SCOTUS does. It’s their mandate along with a lot of other RACIST and FASCIST things. They’re coming for YOU next.

Nobody seems to give one fuck in this nation about the disenfranchised Black voters of South Carolina. That’s okay. Nobody is going to give a fuck about any white people soon either.

This country assumes everyone is a fucking moron. It disrespects brains at every single turn.

I smile at EVERYONE I meet because I WANT TO. Everyone deserves the same smile until they don’t, which is entirely dependent upon them.

"Clarence Thomas, who penned a solo concurrence demanding a radical move: The Supreme Court, he argued, should overrule every precedent that limits gerrymandering — including the landmark cases establishing 'one person, one vote' — because it has no constitutional power to redraw maps in the first place. And he places much of the blame for the court’s allegedly illegitimate intrusion into redistricting on a surprising culprit: Brown v. Board of Education," wrote Stern.”

As an American who has never had full rights in my birth nation, it disgusts me to no end that white Americans are so careless and clueless about fundamental civil rights. It’s extremely offensive.

Tell me more about how fucking important LiveNation is when SCOTUS just gave white supremacists a ROADMAP FOR DISENFRANCHISING BLACK PEOPLE ALL OVER THE NATION.
