A new documentary "White With Fear" reveals how the GOP's embrace of racism and the Southern Strategy directly leads to Trump admiring Hitler's generals and being rewarded for it.
Thank you, great piece and I will definitely watch the documentary. I don't really understand the 'what about Biden and Harris's racism?' comments because your piece is specifially about a documentary on GOP racism. I can't see where you imply that GOP racism means that the Democrats aren't racist. But hey, what can you do when we live in a world where all discourse has been reduced to dualistic concepts?
"Maybe it’s just economic anxiety. Or, hear me out, maybe, it is and always has been racism and white supremacy."
It's become incredibly hard to ignore how much history has been literally white washed to either hide the long ongoing misbehavior, petty hatred and outright violence of white people or to frame it as justified somehow.
People who'd lived their whole lives in Tulsa never hearing about the Tulsa massacre
Covering up what the FBI had done to Civil Rights movement leaders and feminists
The *nearly complete* absence of labor rights in any textbook, in any meaningful way.
The equally nearly complete absence of language stating that on no uncertain terms what was done to the Native Americans was also an attempted Genocide
This is *already* the K-12 curriculum and has been for decades.
Waj, sorry to do this to ya Mate, but seeing as though this is your Substack and you don't (I'm assuming) have any moderators here, would you please address the following for me (and possibly others who are feeling the same way)... 🙂
1. There is a continuing "heckling" (some may see it as trolling) on topics that are not related to your post. I think you know what I'm talking about here.
2. The name calling... not just against politicians, but is calling another subscriber a "stupid Nazi bitch" acceptable to you?
I thought the nastiness was confined to Twitter? 👿😁😉
I just want a space, a community, where we respect a civil, intellectual discourse and not hijack every post or thread with hateful protest.
Is the writer pretending that Trump is the only racist one? The piece is about a documentary on the racism of Trump and the GOP. It is not about racism in US politics. Your remark rather reminds me of the 'what about Oct 7/the hostages?" replies to posts condemning Israeli atrocities on Palestinians. Surely it is possible to deal with one thing at a time.
The war is between Israel and Hamas( a known terrorist organization), who attacked, murdered, and kidnapped Israelis. President Biden is the president of the USA, not Israel.
The US has funded the Israeli slaughter machine to the tune of $260 billion, all whilst impoverishing its own citizens. Without that funding, Israel could not exist. The US wants a firm and expanding base in the Middle East where there is lots of lovely oil on which it is keen to get its hands. Hamas is not a 'known terrorist organisation' - it is designated a terrorist organisation by the US State department, the same dept which designated Nelson Mandela a terrorist until 2013. The October 7 attack was the result of 80 years of Israel land theft, ethnic cleansing (mass murder to you and me) and the most vicious apartheid the world has seen. And don't start on the beheaded/cooked babies/mass rapes thing, that was all made up and has been discredited by reputable sources. I am sure, if your country had been treated the way Palestine has been treated by Israel, you would have smiled and turned the other cheek. Or maybe you would fought back? You are however correct in that that Biden is president of the USA. Good job.
Hamas is a known terrorist group. The suicide bomber is Hamas's contribution to world peace. Israel surrendered Gaza to Palestinians in 2005. Palestinians reciprocated by electing this known terrorist group. In turn the terrorists used all available resources on building an arsenal and burying themselves beneath the civilian population. There is no path to peace with Islamofascists. Today Israel tomorrow the world. As for what is in the US best interest it sure as hell is not having Sharia Law From The River To The Sea and Islamofascists in possession of Israel's nuclear weapons. As for you I am sure you won't vacate whatever property you are occupying when a Native American comes knocking.
The US is not alone in funding Israel. Again, Hamas is a recognized terrorist group that is funded by Iran+Putin. If you think trump is going to help, when he will give Bibi whatever he wants(and Putin), you are lost.
Any doubt as to Insane Clown's racism was removed when he pardoned America's Racist Sheriff Arpaio. After Obama was re-elected in 2012 Republicans vowed to stop being the Stupid Party. Then they decided that a better strategy was to become even stupider in search of The Missing White Voter. With Insane Clown that came to fruition beyond their wildest dreams. Racism works and fear sells when it is unopposed. Kamala is following all the so-called experts advice to move to the middle when there is no middle to move to. She refuses to even speak the words climate crisis. She would rather twist herself into knots trying to explain her fracking reversal than to put it in the context of climate crisis. She refuses to put the blame for the drastic rise in prices that resulted from the pandemic on Insane Clown's clownish response. She refuses to state that Insane Clown belongs in jail for his treasonous criminal acts. She won't even question why Insane Clown would need to plead for immunity from prosecution when no other president before or since has ever required such immunity. When asked what she would do different from Biden what she should say is she would have removed Merrick Garland's weak ass. Insane Clown's incitement is a matter of public record. A fucking chatbot could have prosecuted that case. This should be no contest. Insane Clown should be relegated to Lyndon LaRouche fringe status. Instead Kamala comes with her smiley shit face, platitudes and pom-poms hoping Insane Clown punches himself out. That didn't work in 2016 when Hillary allowed Insane Clown to run essentially unopposed. It barely worked in 2020 when Biden played the empathy card and everyone was sick of Insane Clown's clowning to the point where he basically threw the election preferring to incite a civil war to be fought over him. Rope A Dope in boxing or politics is a dangerous game.
That tactic may have worked/made sense in 2020 but it won’t work this election cycle because Genocide Joe and Kama Chameleon are funding/arming a white supremacist settler colony (i.e., Israel) that’s annihilating an indigenous brown population (i.e., Palestinian men, women, children, babies, and the elderly). Sorry to break this to you, but your neocon Dems are going to be defeated on 11/5. And they can’t blame anyone but themselves because they’re morally bankrupt.
Listen, you neocon piece of shit - bloviating ignoramus, you can call me whatever misogynistic name you want and accuse me of supporting Troglodyte Trump, but it will never change the fact that you are the one who is voting for a genocide perpetrator. I am voting for Jill Stein and Butch Ware because I have a conscience and am anti-genocide. You, on the other hand, are a soulless asshole who follows the dictates of morally depraved people like Dick and Liz Cheney, otherwise known as Killer Kamala’s BFFs.
Assuming you are going to vote at all and not a Russian AI creation you are not fooling anyone. Sorry to break this to you but if "neocon" Dems are defeated it won't be Jill Stein taking the oath on January 20. And no you are not anti genocide you are pro Jew genocide. Take ownership of what you are stupid Nazi bitch.
We all know what you really are: an incel for Harris. Sexually frustrated freaks like you are why progressives will not vote for your war criminal candidate, you genocidal maniac. So, fuck you!
I'm happily married bitch. You were laughing your ass off on October 7 when Hamas was dragging hostages into Gaza. They would still be rampaging over Israel if you had your way. Again assuming "you" actually exist.
Outstanding today, Waj. "Racism works and fear sells." That's it in a nutshell.

By all means let's all mind our manners and come with smiley faces but we will be in tears when the Second Coming of Insane Clown becomes a reality.
How do we get the documentary.? Your article won't take us there.
Kamala and Biden are committing f’ing genocide and dehumanising Palestinians.. let’s not pretend Trump is the only racist one
Way over the top

Showing that movie Oct 25 in NYC is too little too late. Why not a broad distribution now?
This is the only sane explanation for all of the Republican insanity.
It isn't just the Republicans, though they certainly are the most visible to prey on it though.
I'm sure there are many of us who would love to watch the documentary, but won't have access. 🫤
Here's a link to an audio interview Janice Malone from Film Festival Radio did with director, Andrew Goldberg - White With Fear documentary.

Go Greens! 💚🇵🇸🇱🇧🕊️🌍
And what is the Insane Clown you worship going to do for Palestinians or any other brown population do you think? Stupid Nazi bitch.

Israel was the Jewish homeland LONG before anyone came and tried to kick them out.
