AOC criticizes the Amazon deal and one economist that is only biased against sports subsidies (take an economics course and you would be to) shows what is wrong with the Amazon deal by comparing it to Sports subsidies but AOC is a problem.
If we're going by election results Trump won the EC right so does that mean so does that suggest people want White Supremacy. It wouldn't surprise me.
'Both parties are mired in white supremacy,' says ex-candidate in Denver facing threats over tweet
Luby: "Do you hate white people?"
Rao: "No."
Luby: "Have you given up on white people?"
Rao: "I hate white supremacy. I do not hate white people."
She said she's given up on trying to convince white people including those in both political parties to stop white supremacy.
"White people have to dismantle it," Rao said. "Brown and black people cannot. It's not even a possibility. We've been trying forever."
She said she doesn't worry about her safety over the growing number of hateful messages, but worries about her children. She's leaving Denver on Tuesday for "a few weeks" and won't say where she's going.
"You can't escape white supremacy. I don't think moving somewhere permanently is going to change anything," Rao said. "But in this moment right now, I feel like we've gotten enough bad stuff our way that I don't feel safe for my kids right now."
Among the messages appearing on social media is one from a man who said, in part, "YOU are numb-minded racist, a leftist and anti-American."
Via email, someone said, in part, "You are an ungrateful racist. You and your family have a great life in the United States. Whites do not apologize for inventing the Western culture from which you now benefit. We fought and suffered for our great land - your family did not ... You make me sick and I'm a registered Democrat."
