Translation: please don’t separate us from the only security blanket we’ve ever known. Please don’t disempower us by making us relinquish our exclusive right to terrorize everyone else into submission, subjugation & learned helplessness. White supremacy will NOT disarm itself. 🌳 ImageImage
Despite infinite school shootings and the GOP’s persistence in pretending they give a fuck about the sanctity of life and children, Republicans nationwide plow ahead with catalyzing more school shootings/mass murders in the public square. #ProLifeIsALie #GOPDeathPanels🩸 Image
Oh lord, look at Dan Patrick whining and unsuccessfully trying to muster alligator tears to deflect away from the ENTIRE @TexasGOP’s WILLFUL negligence, malfeasance and overall SOCIOPATHY. Vote them ALL the FUCK OUT in November. 🔥💣🌊 ImageImageImageImage
Fuck all of these fake ass tears. Texas Republicans don’t give a FUCK and won’t lift a finger to stop these senseless massacres from happening over and over again. Fuck all of these insulting & idiotic deflections to mental health from Republicans who’ve defunded MH since Reagan.
These massacres are on @GregAbbott_TX, the RNC, NRA, @TexasGOP, Russia, the ENTIRE US Congressional GOP and SCOTUS. Electing @BetoORourke the next Governor of Texas and putting an end to this senseless carnage IS. ON. US. #ExpectUs #BetoBelieveIt #BetoDaysAreComing 🔥💣🌊🆘
Actually, that’s not entirely true. We most definitely ARE coming for their ARs and AKs. Just like Bill Clinton, Joe Biden and the rest of the Democratic Party did in 1994 with the *Assault Weapons Ban* that the GOP maliciously allowed to expire in 2004. #ExpectUs to save lives.
How’s this for CRT?! ☕️ No matter how hard the revisionists contort themselves and American history for financial gain and CYA, once upon a time Congress WAS capable of *taking action* to prevent domestic terrorism, gun proliferation, and violence against women/children. Image
Let’s go over this one more time now that folk finally give a shit. 👩🏾‍🏫 The #1 reason gun control and a laundry list of other issues are such a heavy lift for stellar Democratic White allies in the South and all over America is b/c the White voting majority will NOT disarm itself. ImageImage
Oh and you Beto believe it’s a double-edged sword b/c the predominantly White far left refuses to apply nuance to police/criminal justice reform conversations, thereby making it damn near impossible to find common ground re: law & order. They prioritize purity over public safety. ImageImageImageImage
From the article👆🏾: “Many Black leaders saw the notoriously harsh law as an imperfect solution to unbearable levels of urban crime.” Now juxtapose that with White GOP, ConservaDem (Manchin) & alt left leaders like Bernie & Fetterman, who share the same rural White gun addiction.
IOW, the rubber meets the road on gun control because predominantly White men across the political spectrum won’t literally disarm themselves or figuratively disarm the hegemony that’s historically kept them atop the food chain in American society. Their privilege is VIOLENCE.🩸 Image
As I told Joe Walsh (who clearly wants to fashion himself as a reformed, reasonable & respectable conservative), this is the selfishness & endless empathic failure of White American manhood, as it was prototyped in the rugged individualist image of John Wayne. Baked-in toxicity. Image
Bottom line is Beto isn’t just squaring up w/a local #PodiumOfBastards (h/t @Marmel) exclusive to TX. He’s David vs. a GOP Goliath of institutionalized oppression for personal gain, privilege & White POWER. They’re infuriated that he doesn’t need/want their plantation fantasies. ImageImageImageImage
Indeed we do need way more White men like Beto willing to risk it all, @smoran26 and that’s precisely how/why Joe Biden won the D primary and the presidency. He rose above a field full of opponents who walked & talked too softly around White supremacy for fear of losing votes. ImageImageImageImage
And in case it isn’t already exceedingly clear, acquiescing to daily/weekly massacres & yearly escalations in gun-related fatalities IS walking & talking too softly around White supremacy. Reliable allyship in this atrocious climate means seeking sobriety from White gun culture. ImageImageImageImage
Sure, let’s go down that road because it’s 100% illustrative of my point. For both me & Walsh to be 100% right on both the motives AND the politics, the issue is STILL that we’re only tolerating these massacres because that’s what a preponderance of White sociopaths want. 💯%.
I sincerely hope y’all are paying close attention because what they’re saying is prepare to “maybe” get background checks *only* because asking White men/boys to surrender their killing machines in light of all these kids being disintegrated at school is a bridge too fucking far.

Reality is the predominantly rural & suburban White Texans who keep electing Republicans aren’t actually winning anything but the freedom to die of Whiteness without interference from a functional social safety net. Their electoral “victory” ultimately amounts to self-sabotage. Image
They’re gonna keep killing themselves with guns, drugs/alcohol & science denial and the folk they just elected will keep not giving a fuck. Their kids will remain uneducated, unmotivated & uncompetitive and the wages of Whiteness won’t be enough to sustain them or turn the tide.
Also their feigned religiosity isn’t ever gonna save them from the consequences of their disastrous political choices. Their family systems are in a shambles and there aren’t enough behavioral health providers or community resources to clean up the endless messes they’re making.

FYI the reason why the usual suspects are so busy trying to stir up shit betwixt and against Black & Jewish ppl is b/c we’re the 1st & 2nd most reliable Democratic voting blocs & the midterm election’s quickly approaching. Intersectionality is OUR POWER. pewresearch.org/religion/2021/…
Matter of fact, it was this same intersectionality & solidarity in the fight for civil rights (and against White supremacy) that fueled passage of the CRA in the aftermath of the “Mississippi Burning” murders of 1964. It’s a bond solidified by trauma. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Murders_o…
Bonus points if you’ve already connected the dots between the heinous killing of Black & Jewish civil rights workers in 1964 and the Mississippi location Reagan *intentionally hand-picked* for the launch of his racist ass presidential campaign in 1979… #SouthernStrategy101

Don’t be surprised or deterred by the fact that Republicans would rather double down on paranoid, persecutory delusions than face their own culpability in Trump’s criminality. Their entire platform is rooted in feigned victimhood, evasion of consequences and blatant lies. Image
The GOP’s had ample opportunity to throw Trump under the bus yet they refuse to do it b/c 1) they’re all partners in crime who are covering each other’s asses and 2) their base is too propagandized and rabid to back away from the ledge. Faced with facts, they retreat to fantasy. Image
It isn’t breaking news that when they can’t successfully self-soothe in the Fox fantasy bubble, they resort to threatening/inciting violence. We’ve all seen this tantrum b4 & it STILL isn’t a valid excuse for letting anyfuckingbody off the hook for crimes against our democracy.

Translation: despite the urgency of beating back GOP fascism/treason, a lot of White Independents & “moderates” would STILL rather pine away for an imaginary coalition they don’t have the numbers to build than join a *multicultural* coalition that successfully elects Democrats.
Ever notice how they wait til the last 3-9 months before an election to decide they’re suddenly so dissatisfied with the menu options that they’d risk an alternative path that’ll most assuredly result in further dystopian bullshit at the hands of the GOP/White voting majority? 🧐
It’d be different if they’d spent the last ~22 years since the robbery-in-broad-daylight 2000 election building the infrastructure & electoral track record of a viable 3rd party but NO. Instead they’ve become spiteful spoilers who spew shit from the sidelines and enable the GOP.

Because the base of the Democratic Party’s been Black voters for the last 60 years, so just as Black people have always been held to blatant double standards that our White counterparts aren’t, the Democratic Party’s always a convenient scapegoat while the GOP gets away w/murder.
IOW, instead of holding the White voting majority accountable for repeatedly electing Republicans thereby enabling austerity/patriarchy/theocracy/fascism, they blame the Democratic Party for not being powerful enough to undo the damage without ANY help from the White majority.
They literally do this every election season b/c their fuckery is predicated on convincing enough voters (mostly White ones) that Democrats are too feckless, ignorant & mistrusted to win their votes. They claim both sides are the same b/c fascism poses no imminent threat to them.

The Police Timeline of the Texas School Shooting Has a Lot of Holes | via @VICENews h/t @ItsKey_70sbaby #PunIntended #GunReformNow #WhenGoodGuysWithGunsGoWrong vice.com/en/article/pkp…
“Investigators ‘still grabbing’ information about Texas school shooting as families search for answers” #Uvalde #DemandReform #DemandTheTruth #DemandJustice twitter.com/i/events/15291…
“They create the conditions they lament then refuse all the viable remedies.” They put shit tons of assault weapons on the streets to justify further militarization of America’s police force, which still hasn’t demonstrated competence or capability of neutralizing mass shooters. Image
