Your treason will be remembered for generations to come…
FINDING PARENTS’ MAGA HATS WILL ONE DAY BE EQUIVALENT OF DISCOVERING THEIR ‘KU KLUX KLAN HOOD,’ SAYS PROFESSOR
I have a scenario. In a few decades finding your parents’ or grandparents’ MAGA hats or other regalia will be the equivalent of someone in this moment discovering their relatives’ Nazi paraphernalia. Nazism and Trumpism are, of course, not yet the same thing. Is this too extreme a comparison?
I think it’s similar. But I think a better analogy would be like finding a Ku Klux Klan hood or robe. I’ve made the comparison before. Every time I watch a documentary about the civil rights movement and all the hateful violence they faced I wonder what the white people who were doing those horrible things were thinking. What was going through their minds?
We are living in an era with Donald Trump and the Republican Party and the right-wing movement in America where things of similar gravity are happening. It’s our job to not be the people who stand by idly and let mobs harass black kids who in an earlier era not too long ago were trying to go to newly desegregated schools. In a few generations from now, finding a MAGA hat in your grandparents’ closet would be like seeing your grandfather’s or grandmother’s face in one of those lunch counter photos, harassing the black people who are trying to fight Jim Crow and win their equal human rights.
Those that supported this atrocity are nothing more than a nasty, dangerous, social disease. That is how they will be remembered- as an ugly, bigoted group of traitors. That is what their grandchildren will be taught about them. The only question is how many innocents will be injured and killed by the madness of the MAGA morons? How many more children will be caged and killed? How many more wounds to our constitution?
The more damage they do, the harsher the judgement of history will be…
Tired of winning, yet?
