As the United State's campaign of genocide and ethnic cleansing against immigrants and black, brown, and indigenous peoples' grows even more terrifying and severe under Trump, I frequently find myself asking: why are people beating around the bush?
The United States is terrorizing, torturing, imprisoning, and deporting thousands and thousands of people (including children) right now and every day. The intent is to make America more white, and to leave the remaining brown and black people more disempowered, desperate, and exploitable.
I'm glad people are at least using the word fascism in moderate frequency, even if people don't always take it seriously. But why sugar coat genocide? Why don't people call these actions what they are? Is America just so deeply racist that we're able to normalize such violence?
