    @theauracle I don't know the path to justice anymore. I used to think nonviolent revolution or at least progressivism would lead us along the path. No more can I entertain that fantasy. I believe as we watch our social fabric rend, violent extreme acts will increase. Sadly.

    @theauracle Yeah, it is a spectrum not a binary. And I did think of the generational trauma as I was typing but ran out of room. I know form my white straight upbringing that I have inherent racism and sexism as kinda default settings in my mind-body. I have to work to overcome them all the time. It is personal work and tiring as you say. I have gay and trans kids and friends who have helped educate me. Thing is I lived for a LONG time outside the US, whites are racist everywhere I've been

    @theauracle It seems to me there are two different fears that give rise to the "Kill all *"
    One is the fear born of trauma, and the other is the fear inculcated of the "Other" by socialization. The fear of black people and queers is mostly of the latter type, while some women have a fear of men born of trauma.
    I would suspect some black people have a fear of whites born of trauma as well, as would LGBTQ people. Just thinking along with you here as I have puzzled about this for a while.

    @GottaLaff @emptywheel
    You need to start thinking about CNN in the frame of 'controlled opposition.' They will use clips of this town hall to simultaneously criticize IQ45 and platform him. All to better profit from the coming billion dollar Presdential ad streams. The elite owners of 'news' outlets are no longer liberals, or even neoliberals. They align with the goals of the frankly authoritarian elites.
