The New Age of Fascism
Disgusting racist politicians that would say anything to get elected even if it endangered BIPOC by emboldening racists are not an anomaly. They are the people that racist society produce. They are reflections of the society. They reflect the majority thinking in the society, products of their environment. Just look at the people that elected them. Just look at other politicians in the background, seeing that the road has been laid out for them and jumping at the opportunity to say what is on their mind.
A country whose majority of people could care less about the hierarchy system, that systemic racism has in place. Where some are treated as second class citizens and looked down upon. Where the majority of its people could care less who is dying as long as the price of their gasoline is cheap. A country where the majority of its people never seem to question, why their governments are always bombing BIPOC, and instead say evil things like, “why don’t we just nuke them” knowing full well they wouldn’t feel the same if the country they are at war with had a population that was majority white. just study at the disparities in how South East Asia was bombed, compared to Nazi Germany.
So don’t be shocked by these opportunistic, dishonest,nationalist, xenophobic, greedy, obnoxiously racist, entitled, priviledged, arrogant, selfish people. The are just reflections of your society.
