This is exactly the kind of performative bullshit and deep seeded misogyny,internalized misogyny and white supremacy that has led to Trump being president again. Bc why the fuck are yall coddling this disgusting,violent and hateful creature like he's a child? This is absolutely horrid. White people will always and in droves see other white people as innocent and misunderstood when they are bigots. Most of them see Black people and POC has subhuman and that's the truth. It's very obvious.
