Just gonna say it; the higher-ups are scarred and I can bet they didn't that this shit seriously when people were talking about it. I have a feeling they didn't otherwise they wouldn't be acting this 'stunned' that it went down like this.
This comes off as a lot of politicians and other elites taking things for granted as they happened over the summer. They felt lax enough over watching protests over the summer destroy shit away from them that they were unprepared for people coming up to the doors and that-
-says something.

These MFs got comfy watching neighborhoods away from them burn up because it wasn't something they had to be concerned about. That's why they cheered it on, even when other Black folks were crying out for things to stop. We didn't want this.
We had folks crying out for everything to stop around us but politicians and celebs cheered it on, saying it 'needed to happen' but they weren't here. They were somewhere else watching as our streets were on fire and our homes were busted up and no one had any sort of leadership.
People were angry, many of them rightfully so, but the combination of anger and 0 guidance and goals resulted in nothing changing except a bunch of smirking fat cats acting like they were 'with us'.

But now they're pissing their pants at the Trump rallies and we know why.
The Trump rally didn't take it to random neighborhoods. They took it to the fucking hill, to the fucking house and where the politicians have to face it themselves and now they're calling out all the stops to get them out.

And yes, the same thing would have happened if BLM had-
-stormed in because that's how fucked these guys (politicians) are. They're all for BLM until BLM moves too close to their comfort zone. Don't try to fool yourselves that things would have been 'different'. It wouldn't. The politicians still would have acted cowardly and in fact-
-the whole possibly BLM thing should wake you up that they don't fucking care and were never on your side outside of getting votes. Hurts, doesn't it?

And at this point, I'm not upset at citizens. I put this squarely on both politicians and media for gaslighting EVERYONE. No-
-your side, they don't give a fuck about you and the whole of 2020 was just a bunch of rich fucks fucking with people and 'cheering' them on when it was an act because they didn't have to do the clean up,
Someone 'cares' when their lead in for checking in on people isn't laden with a bunch of political/racial bullshit but hey, this is the cake the bed they made all Spring an Summer. They never expected people following through so they were unprepared as regular folks were.
So yeah; fuck it. This s why I hate politics and what it does to people, on top of manipulating people. They fucked with everyone in 2020 so let them get lit up as they allowed a lot of our cities to get lit up and then tried to tell us 'it's okay'.

Ain't fuckin' okay NOW, huh?
Don't fall for this dividing shit people in Washington let fester until it blew up in their faces. People warned them back in 2016. People warned them in 2020.

WE WARNED THEM.
