There is never any reason that people of color DESERVE fascism. I don’t care if they don’t vote, don’t protest, don’t organize. We will NEVER deserve white supremacy, fascism, oppression. This punitive thinking is why we need abolitionists. https://t.co/VuEVH48rHY

y’all are telling a fascist to get better... so you can... vote him out. this how is how i know, none of you have a working definition of fascism. and it’s terrifying that you believe you’re leading any kind of resistance without actually knowing what you’re up against

Liberals put too much emphasis and importance on voting like that isn't enough to combat everything, fascists and fascism need to be eradicated from this earth. This doesn't die with Trump, people need to get educated. This ideology will come back in a more eloquent, polished, younger package. The whole thing is rotten.

I can only speak from the US perspective since I'm an American but it's kinda like they don't seem to understand gerrymandering, voter suppression, and the fact that election day isn't even a fucking national holiday in this country. So many people don't know how to vote, work long days where they probably get out of work when the polls close and don't know that you can still vote as long as you stay in line. It's ridiculous to rely solely on voting for everything especially when a large majority of people are uneducated about how to vote/disenfranchised.

I think she should have worded this better because I have seen a lot of people saying they hope he gets better so he can be prosecuted and jailed which is preferred than saying he should die, because someone famous whishing the president to die is not a good look but as a nobody, hoping he dies is the honest truth

On a perfect world, I’d prefer him being jailed and losing than him dying but lbr, nothing will happen to him even if he loses and he’ll still be a popular personality and pro-fascism campaigner with a humongous platform.

This whole “hope he won’t die so he can face justice” is just liberal fantasy. And at the end of the day it’s not even liberal fantasy either because if Trump starts being investigated for his corruption and conflict of interests, this set the precedent for everyone else to be also be investigated and lol, no way Democrats would want that. I mean, if liberals truly wanted justice they’d think Bush, Obama and Clinton belong in The Hague but nope, they’re idolizing them so yeah...

I’m not in the business of telling people how they respond to things so if that’s how Ava wants to respond regarding his health that’s her choice. Not to say you can’t agree or disagree with it either.

Ava has a right to respond to someone’s criticisms but I think she went a step too-far by “@“ her employers. Kinsey only reiterated what Ava has previously stated. She didn’t make up lies.
