A.R. Moxon, Verified Duck 🦆

These are the old inherited foundational lies of whiteness in the United States, which drive all our politics, and all our discourse:

1) we bear no relation to one another
2) life must be earned
3) violence is redemptive

therefore;

4) those who have not earned life must die
5) but first they must be used
6) and in the meanwhile, they must suffer

The legacy of Mueller is that if you do diligent methodical careful work on a damning report, trusting to our institutions to do the right thing, damned liars will just tell damned lies about your work and the lies will stand, because institutions won't confront power and nobody does the reading.

Don't shun people just because they have different beliefs about blotting out the sun to usher in a new age of eternal darkness. We have to find an answer in the middle.

When you write people off simply because they are actively working to make the entire planet a frozen apocalyptic wasteland, it actually is you who are blotting out the sun—the sun of free discourse.
