9. All due respect... your approval isn't really relevant. It's not about the messenger.

It's about the warning. It's about present realities that, if nothing is done, you wouldn't approve of even more.

Of course its purpose is to get attention "for the group staging it" -- the klan had better pay attention.

This is a mocking video of their intergenerational teaching of racism, how racist communities took their children to lynchings, picknicked with each other under dead black bodies, and it's about how teaching anti-racism can be intergenerational, as well.

Yes, this ugliness is a part of history that keeps wanting to be our present, and so this, what's going in the present, is meant to stop that ugliness from ambushing any of its former targets.

When the racist fascists go away -- and there are over active racist groups in this country -- this kind of warning will go away.

Because good Democrats want to prevent any more loss of democracy and freedom. Or what's the point of participating in politics.
