This is the month our country doubled down on systemic misogyny. This is the month we continued the criminalization of refugees including children. This is the month that there were assassination attempts on two ex-presidents as well as other outspoken critics of the status quo. This is the month white people called the police on black people. This is the month the overt attempt to destroy Trans rights was announced. This is the month another terrorist hate crime targeting a place of worship killed several human beings. This is the month the president declared himself to be a nationalist which means white supremacist, racist, Nazi.  This is the month that victim blaming and pathological lying crept further into the zeitgeist. This is the month that people continue to not pay attention and to think it doesn’t impact them. This is the month that people continue to look out for their own narrow interests and perhaps forget about the rest of the world, or even their neighbors.

 

Just sayin’
