2020 Election - The curtain starts coming down

[robkelk]

If you support Trump now, this is what you stand for:

Oh no.  You need to be far more in-your-face about it.  Why?  Because some of the people I've known would see that and just go "HELL YEAH!"

To quote Alexander Panetta, "Wednesday's scenes will outlive us all — images of the invasion of the U.S. Capitol, of politicians forced into hiding, congressional offices ransacked and, in a symbolic gut-punch, a Confederate flag carried triumphantly inside this most anti-Confederate landmark."

Whoever that was who did that is still fighting your Civil War, one-and-a-half centuries after everybody else decided to end it.

So instead, you need to use images like these.

Lynchings

There is no hiding from the fact.  If you support Trump, then you abide this kind of behavior.  No amount of "MAKE AMERICA GREAT" can excuse it.  If you think that was greatness, then you're living in a fantasy world where cruelty is condoned - encouraged even - in the name of God because of some manifest destiny.

"Here is a strange and bitter crop"

Nowadays, the obvious imagery has been replaced with racist cops opening fire on anybody who doesn't have the same skin colour that they have.

And some people wonder why non-whites have been asking when America was ever great.
