The friend of my enemy is my enemy. I want them to be shamed out of existance. Because sitting around teloing us to play nice while they burn us and depirt us snd lynch us only helps them.

I would never ask a person to try to be more understanding of their rapist or Slavemaster. You need to be lecturing the deplorables. They might make it so I will be arrested for my blackness soon, while you tell me t chill and understand them.
