Tear down all these monuments that celebrate racism and inequality. Start teaching the TRUE history of this country in schools and not only colleges. Stop being passive and nonchalant with closet racist. Call the pieces of shit out for who they truly are. Stop allowing our government to lie to us about what America's foreign policy is. It is not to bring peace and democracy to the world. It is to disarm and dismantle smaller nations of color, take control of their resources and subjugate them to the same oppression and institutionalized racism we have here. Defund the police. Currently, they are government sanctioned terrorists. These cops killing unarmed black men are NOT VOTING LIBERAL!! They are terrorists who are terrorizing people of color because of their conservative political views that tell them, people of color do not deserve the same rights as they do. Its 20 fucking 20. We're trying to send people to Mars, yet we have a race of people on this planet who truly believe the bullshit system they created to opress others, makes them superior.

It is to disarm and dismantle smaller nations of color, take control of their resources and subjugate them to the same oppression and institutionalized racism we have here. Hmm agree with our foreign policy not about bringing democracy to other places, but I think you're conflating a racist agenda with an economic agenda. The two can and are often (and nearly always) separate. Thought perhaps you're saying that these policies "lead to" institutionalized racism. I'm not sure of any examples though, can you provide please? KINDERFELD posted... Defund the police. Currently, they are government sanctioned terrorists.

By defund, can you clarify? Do you think we should take their funding to zero? Or just take away some funding and divert it to community projects, etc? If you want to get rid of all police, what would the replacement look like? KINDERFELD posted... Its 20 fucking 20.

I think we're already beginning to do this to some capacity. These monuments made to commemorate men who stood for slavery, racism and oppression have no place in a society that want to get past racism. Which part are they leaving out now? What's the elevator pitch for the true history you'd want to teach? Currently, only in college you get the blatant and disgusting truth about this country's history. There are so many falsehoods taught in school when it comes to American history. Even worse is, a lot of it is simply not taught in schools. However, you will learn bullshit like Washington couldn't tell a lie or that Columbus discovered the Americas, 4th of July myth... I feel like we do that already. What do we do after we call them out but they are still around That's nice that you can feel this way. The reality is, these Karen videos go viral and result in social repercussions for them. Just like the police use images of them murdering black men to intimidate the black community, so too we use these videos to intimidate those who want to be overt with their racism. Hmm agree with our foreign policy not about bringing democracy to other places, but I think you're conflating a racist agenda with an economic agenda. The two can and are often (and nearly always) separate. Thought perhaps you're saying that these policies "lead to" institutionalized racism. I'm not sure of any examples though, can you provide please? We have military presence in these nations. The citizens of these countries are being policed and controlled by a foreign power. Then our media shows a handful of citizens of these nations saying they love the presence of America in their country, and we're all appeased and okay with it. Tell me, would you be okay if a foreign power invaded our country and kept military presence here? Also, why is it that we're invading places like Iraq, Afghanistan, Africa, places with people who are not white. Every nation we're harassing that way is a small non-white nation. Venezuela, North Korea, Guyana, Vietnam and on and on. Also, you need a thorough education on institutionalized racism and how it has EVERYTHING to do with economics and finance. By defund, can you clarify? Do you think we should take their funding to zero? Or just take away some funding and divert it to community projects, etc? If you want to get rid of all police, what would the replacement look like? Defund the police meaning, shift funds from these terrorist to the communities they've been terrorizing. Police should not be the ones responding every 911 call. They also need to be held accountable for the crimes they commit. In addition, we need to take a lot of the money used to militarize the police, for regular mandatory mental assessments of these officers. Many of them aren't mentally fit for the job, yet still have guns and badges. Lost me on this one. Who are we talking about? All white people? All white people. Sorry but all white people are being examined now to see if they harbor racist views. All white people are being assessed and held accountable.
