The Washington Post now has no Black Opinion columnists - none - at a time when white nationalism is ascendant in our nation. I am grateful to Karen for the truth and fearlessness her work has always shown. Keep shining that light, my friend.

Republicans are talking about "social media" as the cause of political violence because it's a convenient distraction from the fact they refuse to acknowledge that Donald Trump does more than anyone in our country to heighten tensions and incite the crazies
This is certainly a different take I can get behind

Good Question. Really, this is a good question.
MAGA, a movement so strong that it has to resort to cheating at all levels in order to try to maintain its grip. Gerrymandering, lies, masked goons and fear are tactics similar to those used by past regimes in other nations. None of those regimes last.
This is what REFORM want. A lawless country where the mob rule. Never mind democracy they want simple mob law. No one will be safe from the mob. Itβs a dystopian future of rampaging thuggery.
Yes. We can.
If we are to deprive political violence of its power, we must reject anyone who commits or promotes it - and also reject any move to exploit it.

There's a reason "survival of the fittest" has fallen out of use amongst scientific studies. Too many people interpret it as "strong is best" instead of "those who best fit the ever changing environment are who survive".

I don't think Peter Mandelson is PM's biggest problem. The biggest problem is not standing up to the literal violent racism on our streets, supercharged by the richest man in the world, and threatening the very fabric of our society. If he and so many commentators can't see this, we're truly lost.
