I don't the connection between disapproving of a statue being toppled and voting for Trump, but then I don't suppose anybody votes for him for a rational reason.

Yep nationalism is irrational. So I’m thinking that would inflame anyone tilting towards nationalism but wasn’t sure on trump anymore.

That’s another one I know. But post civil war I’m taking about. Do younot understand what I’m trying to say like he is on schools walls all over yanky America andis the first president, founder and fighter for America. Like am I been unreasonable to say that’s not going to piss people off that where once sympathetic. Or does George Floydd change the collective consciousness of how none racist yanks feel about George Washington?

For the 'how can you support public health measures while also supporting BLM protests?' crowd:

Risking Their Lives To Save Their Lives: Why Public Health Experts Support Black Lives Matter Protests

Public health support of the Black Lives Matter protests seems to contradict public health advice to stay home. But the issue isn't so simple.

This is really weird

That has nothing to do with the context of modern american history.

That sound of laughter you hear might be going in a different direction to the one you think it is
