Hating, Discriminantly

HATE CRIMES in the U.S. against Asian-Americans are up three hundred percent during the pandemic, as if folks with almond eyes are somehow responsible for the deaths of a million mostly unvaccinated Americans. Hate crimes against the standard victims of good ole tradtional American bigotry have similarly multiplied in the era of Trump; to be black, brown, Islamic, female, gay, or transgender in these United States of Animosity is a risky business with conservative extremists lurking under every rock and cesspool. Likewise, there is a highly traditional flavor to the usual hate criminals; white, conservative Christian mainstream American mad men. For the reality deniers, as Casey Stengal said: "You could look it up". In America, hatred against ethnic non conmormity is a way of life, firmly, deeply rooted in tradition. Hopefully, thankfully, white Christian conservatism no longer enslaves black African men and women, nor lynches them, thanks only to the power of the United States government and decades of liberal activism, which conservative traditionalists hate, for depriving them of their legitimate racist fun and white supremacist delusion of grandeur... In their place the shooting death by police every few days of suspicious looking African-American men will have to do. White Christian slave owners used to say that among the many beneficial and redeeming aspects of black enslavement is that it brought poor ignorant savages to Christ. Native American genocide achieved the same end: cut the savage's hair, toss the feathers, stuff the savages into neckties and top hats, hand them a Bible, and you have instant Christians, and God's flock increases White Christian patriarchy, making the world safe for..white christian patriarchy. Never mind welcome the stranger, do unto others, render unto Caesar, or give unto the poor. The white Christian God in the sky, American version, ordained Trump, like David the reformed reprobate, to power, that he might spread white Christian free market economics to the four corners of the flat Earth. Never mind that Trump is wholly unfamilair with the Bible, has rarely attended church, or that Trumpism and populist conservative Christian values are the very antithesis of the teachings of the apocalyptic interant preacher Joshua ben Joseph, aka Jesus, who was neither white, nor capitalistic, and who never advocated for the TEA party nor corporate control, but rather, was a brown skinned liberal socialist who said things like "go thy way, and sell whatsoever thou hast, and give unto the poor"....and.."welcome the stranger"....and..."the wealthy man shall not enter unto the kingdom of heaven"...and.."render unto Ceaser"....and did not say things like "white power" and "Jews will not replace us".
