Acting like "the internet" is responsible for America's rising right-wing violence is just the whitest possible response.

America's soil is soaked in blood, and America has reveled in that blood. We have never reconciled that blood, or atoned, or often even admitted that we shed it. We build lavish resorts on top of massacred Native blood. We host beautiful weddings on top of massacred Black slave blood. And rather that atone, we cause more to bleed and build more.

America is a gothic horror story of ancient blood magic returning to claim its price. Fascism is the demon Whiteness has prayed to and called forth and it will devour us as it claims their soul.

And rather than acknowledge and atone, even now white people want to blame "the internet" instead of 400 years of rape, lynching, murder, land theft, and racist laws that continue to this day. Instead of 400 years of individuals saying "well I'm personally not racist so it's not my problem."
