Fighting For Metaphor

I don’t have kids

I don’t spend money on nicotine

I don’t gamble my money away on sports

I’m not reliant on a chat bot for all my life functions

No investigation

No public news broadcast highlighting this

His own family having to fight to say he didn't do this to himself.

Nothing.

Not. A. Damn. Thing

I don't want to hear about fucking "compassion" or "understanding" and all this other bullshit when it comes to fascists, white supremacists, white nationalists, and anything that coexists within pure, unadulterated racist hatred. I want you to have that same motherfucking energy when it comes to people who ACTUALLY should be having that, that we should ACTUALLY be fighting for and highlighting what really MATTERS.

I was arrested on the @MTA train to Connecticut today, pulled off, handcuffed, and detained. An old white woman got on the train and immediately pointed at me and told me to correct how I was sitting. I refused so she went to the conductor and complained. The conductor called the police and stopped the train. While waiting for the police to arrive, the old Karen’s friend said “You’re not the minority anymore.” The police told me to leave the train, I refused and asked what was I doing illegally. They said I was disturbing the peace by not leaving the train. They pulled me off the train and arrested me without even talking to the Karen who reported the one black person on the train. On the platform, the police detained me and interrogated me. Only black folks stayed nearby and recorded the arrest. When I demanded a lawyer and reminded them they didn’t even take a statement from the woman who complained they eventually released me. This country is growing more psycho by the day. What will you do about it?

Disheartening to know that not only did the conductor called and helped the pigs, the non-Black people also just sat by in silence. And yet, it's utterly unsurprising. Grandma snitching on a Black man for sitting unproperly is pure Carolyn Bryant behaviour and she deserves to die a slow, painful death.

And here are cops' badge numbers, dox them:
