TFG's dad (Fred) was a arrested at a Klan rally in NYC (WaPo). He took us in the same direction

and brought the white, somehow aggrieved, maligned, ignored racists from their shadows. He is and always was, a racist, vile human. The apple did not fall far from the tree. The question is, as a country do we have the resolve to clearly and finally call it out and address the systemic hatred, racism or do we succumb to the hatred and vileness which is Cult 45? It has progressed since Charlottesville all the way to 1/6/2020 and a concerted effort to overthrow our government. It is now at a dangerous inflection point. Do we have the will in our institutions to return them to their shadows?

I witnessed in 2015 when graffiti swastikas and pro-45 crap started showing up on local playgrounds. Fucking playgrounds. I knew then, that Voldemort was back.

As of yet, I have heard crickets calling it out. It's like the "MSM" media is directed or afraid to not call out that which "shall be not be named" or openly addressed. Southern Poverty Law Center is who is tracking this, better than the FBI or any government institution in my estimation.

I welcome your "General Discussion" comments.
