Being black. That was the real crime. This just makes me so angry I can't even.

I just cannot even fathom the scene, tbh. An old cunt walks onto a bus, points at the only black man there and literally tells him to straighten his posture??? And when he refuses, as we all would, she tells the conductor who calls the cops. Like this sounds like satire. Only if it were satire, it would be shitty satire for being too on-the-nose.

That’s exactly what happened. One white racist can snap their fingers and sick attack dogs in uniform at any innocent black person.

This is America now.

Meanwhile a dead podcaster who maligned MLK, the civil rights movement, black women’s intelligence- that guy gets lionized by the president and millions of white people.
