Lol no. White Americans are upset that theyre being held responsible for our racist and bigoted past.

Trump is a result of white Americans having to deal with our racist past and the reaction.

Unfortunately nobody likes to be told their success is built on slavery and theft, so we wind up with this wild backlash.

This is a tantrum from white Americans who don't want to be called racist, transphobic, even though they are.

A month or two ago a podcast, I believe Radiolab, straight up asked the woman who was responsible for many of the book bans in the US. Her reply was seriously that she didn't want her kids to feel bad for what their ancestors did.

It's seriously just a tantrum from white Americans who want to deny our history. That's the most American thing I can possibly imagine.

I wish I was kidding but that's really what it is. White Americans get suuuuper upset if you bring up these things.

Remember when Hilldog called trump supporters "deplorables" and his ratings shot up?
