Republicans: “Stop making everything about race.” Really? White people enslaved Black people for generations, stole Native land, lynched and segregated us, burned down Black communities that thrived, and treated Mexican land & labor like property to be taken. America already made it about race.
Guatemalan Jeff Goldblum is right.
Born from, suckled at the teat of, and will die by the myth of white supremacy...
Preach!
Oh and Katrina.

👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Old white lady agrees.
100% they did.
This is the kind of messaging that should be one of Dems talking points that they should all know and deliver as necessary. Unified messaging—on this and many other issues. If Rs can do it, so can Dems. Otherwise, Dems will continue to be drown out by Rs.
Hey, you forgot "And covered up their worst crimes"
Some whites enslaved. Some blacks enslaved. Some native Americans enslaved. Who is enslaving today? The government that claims the right to rule us all and take whatever it wants perhaps? How do we ever do better still in the bullshit skin color yesterday feud space?
are you reading from Kipling's the beginnings? it all goes back to Anglo-Saxon rage
Okay. We’ll make it about criminality.
Every law, every system, every opportunity was shaped by that history. So no, we’re not “making it about race.” America did that!
So true. Enshrined in our own constitution. Hmmmmmm.
Ok. Now let’s move on
If the MAGA right won’t talk about racism because it makes them uncomfortable then these snowflakes need to enter therapy.
someone should make a short series on what the Alamo was really about
If it wasn't about race, we wouldn't need Black History Museums. They would just be ... museums.
IT IS ABOUT RACE IN USA GUYS! WAKE UP!
EXACTLY! Slavery in America is part of African American History! As glad my grown son learned in school and we took him to NYS and many museums keep american kids smart again!
I love the history museums in usa I suggest you all museum lovers to visit the newly African American Museum in SC -We loved that museum! Next we walked a mile to the AME Church where those 10 church Black souls were murdered by a hateful young white male!
The Heritage Foundation has been aiming to “Make America White Again” for more than 4 decades we just didn’t see it happening until it was time to revolt. This is NOT the country I raised my right hand for, or raised my biracial son for, so revolution at this point sounds absolutely fine. LFG
Not that it matters, but I see it as Restoration not revolution. We will restore what we had in 1960 with JFK, 1964 and 1965 with LBJ, and 1933 with FDR. Hope plus a vision and plan for the future. Make America what America should really be. It's about time. Too long we let the fascists hold us back

It’s about race
They are afraid of history and truth. No surprises there...
EXACTLY. We never forget. White Nationalists days are numbered. ONLY FOR A SEASON.

All of the "freedoms and rights for men" did not include women or anyone not WASP
Truer words have never been spoken.
Stop making everything about race? Cute! Forget about slavery , the Jim Crow years, ongoing discrimination, young black men being murdered by cops, the arrests of Latino looking people by masked men and their subsequent incarceration and deportation! Yep, it's not about race!
You forgot to include how well we treated the japanese in WW2, Muslims after 9/11, and Asians after covid--don't be shy ...
Actions speak louder than words.
If you think about it enslaver states - the bible belt - have NEVER had the moral high ground. Racism and hatred is anti-Jesus and immoral.
Looks like a scene from the animated movie “Wall-E”.
I love that movie. Because most of it is a silent film, and I've always been a fan of Pixar. Never too old to watch the children's movies. They often have deeper meanings woven in, plus plenty of jokes for the adults. Good stuff.
Borrowed “Voices From the Radium Age”: an anthology of scifi from the 1900-20s. It included an E M Forster story from 1907, “The Machine Stops.” Some scenes seemed awfully familiar, and I later found out that it was, in fact, the inspiration for Wall-E. Maybe “Silo”, too.
He and father made it about race when refused to rent to POC and they picked up Federal violations of Fair Housing laws.
Them making it about race is how it started AND how it's going.
I voted for him in Virginia when he ran against Rob Wittman. We lost out by him not winning. 😢
No krap!!
The first thing that I always think about is how 13% of the population of the United States are the descendants of the survivors of chattel slavery. The crimes are still ongoing. #Reparations #AffirmativeAction
Well stated… “White MAGA Republicans” are the ones making everything about RACE!
It's been about race in the US since we agreed to a Constitution with a three-fifth representation clause for slaves. The country was founded on race - and built explicitly to maintain its inequality.
Don't they still pay white workers more than non white?
If white is also a race, then by their logic they’re just reinventing DEI for white people.
Stop making this a white v black thing. The European elites enslaved their white populations a long time before they 'discovered' Africa. Start making this about we stand and fight TOGETHER . It's the only way we can win.
It's HUMANS. The world did that, it's always been this way, someone is always gettin' over on somebody else, white, black, red, yellow. My Irish ancestors were indentured servants, slaves to other white people. We're "tribal" still. History repeats and we let it.
I mean what about the racist shit Trump and magas do?
It’s worse, actually
You're absolutely correct. Sad state of affairs. Sad.
They are....Racists. That's why they want Project 2025....they Actually, Hate people.
They also used the Chinese, Irish immigrants to do mining and lay railroad all while abusing and nearly no pay. America was built on the blood of mistreated immigrants and blacks. So sad to think this is what we've always been and hoped it would change, guess not. No glory, no honor, only shame!
The colonialists took every piece of land in Hawaii and then needed laborers to work that land. A mere 10 years after they took the whole nation from the monarchy my Mom’s family was brought in to work the sugar cane fields. They never had money to go back. Our lives have been shaped by this history
Whites have used and abused every race that makes up America. There are no such things as a pure white person. We're all mixed.
Indeed. Reminds me of my husband who can trace his ancestry back to the Mayflower, meanwhile his dna shows he's 1% Bengali Indian.
I saw a doc on Netflix a few years ago, I can't remember the name, but it discussed how slavery was the basis for the American economy, even in blue states. This is how I came to really understand systemic racism. It's a part of every institution in this country.
Only deporting Hispanics
100% Agree And to anyone who wants to make my agreement about race, I'm white.
🔥
This is America. Everything is about race.
The sole unifying ideal of "conservatives" is white supremacy. EVERYTHING is about race with them. #EveryAccusationIsAConfession
Our history is ripe with white supremacists. It took me nearly 60 years to understand, thanks to whitewashing of our history.
Slave Owners: Stop making everything about race! We have Irish slaves too! Well, a few. They don’t work very hard, they’re always soused.
The real battle is over the GREEN. 🤑💰

The white Christian Nationalist GOP are currently doing what they do best! 😡🇺🇸
And continues to do so. Enough!
"don't say the obvious!!"
MESSAGING: GOP ARE TERRIBLE AT PUBLIC SAFETY Lack of investment in people, prevention, law enforcement, and social safety nets. Highest rates of: WOMEN & CHILD SEXUAL ASSAULT, RAPE HOMICIDES SCHOOL SHOOTINGS PROSTITUTION THEFT DOMESTIC VIOLENCE MASS MURDERS youtu.be/CE_0jr62YqY?...
It's always been about race..well and dick size but that's besides the point. Lincoln tried to warn us and they murdered him four days later. After Brown v BoE they got their panties in a bunch. It's unfortunate..having a small dick is only an issue because they're assholes.
