Nothing happens in a vacuum. When Trump lowkey attaboys white supremacists, when another white cop gets off clean for killing a black man, when people publicly fly the Confederate flag, when a mainstream news organization interviews Alex FUCKING Jones, all it does is make scrum like this think that they're doing the right thing. It empowers and emboldens them.
The fact that we're no longer tracking white supremacists as terrorists is mindblowing.
This could have been avoided. These women should still be alive. But America continues to fuck up.
