I loved him before now I love him even more, we need his attitude to spread like wildfire

This is how real change can occur. Listening to people call me a bigot does not make me want to help.

from a war on police brutality to a war on America
Honestly, the whole "police brutality" thing has never been just that.

It has been portrayed as that when convenient. It has never been compartmentalized in that fashion in all honesty.

It is a true culture war. It kind of has been since day one.

And the Right is getting routed. I still can't figure out if the companies genuflecting before BLM are run by liberals or conservatives terrified of being called "racists."

I don't know if there is a winning or a losing in this situation. Do you have people scared to talk right now? Absolutely! But is that creating real change? Or is it just creating shitty lip service while people get more and more pissed off?

I'm all for change that leads to less racism in this world. Republicans and Democrats should be for that. And most Replicans and Democrats I know fully support less racism in this world. But is that what this movement is accomplishing at this point? Or is it just reinforcing stereotypes and creating more division?

Huh, never would've guessed that John Bolton would be one hell of a liberal crisis actor.

I don’t think he’s that as much as he’s a war hungry and disgruntled ex-employee.

If Trump would have started a war with pretty much any country, Bolton would still be cheer leading the administration.

The only place they are getting routed is in the playing field of public discourse.

The companies are in no danger. They pander like everyone else.

Fucking good for them.

George Floyd was murdered, this other guy was rightfully shot for acting like an animal.

Being black doesn’t excuse you from acting right.
Yep don't blame them one bit, ffs this same DA just got onto cops using tasers on rioters and said it's a deadly weapon.
