But itās only bad when Hilary does it through her charity, see. /s
John Kellyās going full on A Hole
āThe Washington Post (paywall) reports Kelly called to insist Duke expel 57,000 protected Honduran hurricane refugees back to their home country. Duke refused, instead granting them a six-month extension.ā
āgoingā? It never stopped, he just has a platform now.
The event started when several people planned to hold a rally celebrating white identity and heritage along the East 39th Street overpass.

āItās ok to be whiteā. What the fuck does that even mean? Does it have something to do with this so called āwhite cultureā that I keep hearing about despite having no idea what that is either? I mean, FFS, Iām a white guy, I should get it, right? Someone must have forgot to send me the newsletter because Iām sure mystified.
In all seriousness this is the exact same kind of ignorant attitude that allows these other āwhite/blue/etc lives matterā memes to be a thing. Nobody is saying itās not ok to be white, itās those that think thereās something wrong with being non-white that have the problem.
This popped up on my Random playlist the other day. It may be an old song but fuck if it doesnāt ring true today.
Especially these lyrics:
Youāre too scared to make a speech during the light
Without a thousand police protecting your rights
To threaten and abuse, incite or fight
But who will protect me from you in the night?
Ghod. Under attack by what? Others having the gall to seek equality and justice? Is everything a zero sum game with these people?
Yes.
Adding useless words for the characters.
When youāre being crushed from above, itās easy to kick down.
ā¦pants on fire.
