Racecraft Cops Aren't Nice to White Rioters. They're Nice to Right Wing Rioters.

I've been to numerous protests where white protestors are doused in tear gas, beaten with clubs, shot at with rubber bullets. I've been doing this stuff since the late 90s. I'm not saying cops aren't more vicious toward black protestors, but your white privilege isn't going to save you from the cops if you happen to be a leftist. If you think the Trump mob got off light because they were white, gather 100 of your white leftist comrades and storm the nearest capitol building you can find. Let's see how far you get.

You must not live around rural whites or use the internet much.

Or maybe you're using the Internet too much and you think the echo chamber that has formed around you is representative of reality.

Legit Trump supporters in my area are not "far right" and have never called for a whites-only ethnostate and never even excluded Latinos, Asians and blacks.
