Which Side Are You On?

[WHITT]

In Atlanta, Biden said:

"At consequential moments in history, they present a choice. Do you want to be on the side of [Martin Luther King Jr.] King or George Wallace? Do you want to be on the side of John Lewis or Bull Connor?" he said. "Do you want to be on the side of Abraham Lincoln or Jefferson Davis? This is the moment to decide to defend our elections, to defend our democracy."

As of today, Manchin and Sinema are on the side of George Wallace, Bull Conner, and Jefferson Davis.

4. Those who would choose the dark side believe white, christian, eurocentric conservatives

are the only Americans ligitimately entitled to be the dominant class in this country. They see demographic change as a giant conspiracy against them, and racial diversity as an act of deliberate aggression. These racial fears are a justification for their anti-democratic, fascist policies, and violence as an act of self-defense.
