Breaking Cycles hurts like hell, it's dangerous, it's scary, it's overwhelming, it's torture, it's dirty and pure gore - it's facing demons and curses carried from generation to generation it's fucking ugly
There is no fun and cute #vote my way to liberation or out of #facism and other #AntiBlackness
Through fire and death we bring new life and a new world
Only a #Phoenix will rise from these ashes
#Fear fuels the #DeathMachine and it's living and breathing from #WhiteWomanTears and the little saviors that #WhiteKnight for them
And if you tell it like it is, if you press their #AntiBlackness their lack of care or hell just their obvious hypocrisy they will eat you alive for their #Capitalistic slave drivers
#CorpoateSimps #Capitalist #Indoctrinators and everyone in between - anything to keep the status quo
If only we were so lucky for them to give fedi another chance
Trash like that is a hindrance to that ever happening
Asta is on 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Here's another example of a big media outlet really pulling its punches about extreme racists. Yet I feel obligated to share because it's an important story.
In this case, it's about a housing development in Arkansas that is overtly screening applicants to ensure they're white. That's not exactly new in the US, but it's been a while since developers have so explicitly used it as a selling point.
There's no question that this is illegal and has been for almost 60 years. But in 2025, the developers think they can get away with it, and they may well be right. The state attorney general's office is "continuing our review of this matter," and the governor has no comment.
The symbolism of Little Rock as the starting point for the return of legal segregation is really something.

From the article:
“Return to the Land needs to strike while the iron is hot,” Mr. Orwoll wrote on a fund-raising page for the group, which has raised nearly $90,000.
“They see right now as a very opportune time. They see a friend in the White House at the highest level,” said Peter Simi, a professor of sociology at Chapman University in California who is an expert on extremist violence. “They see themselves quite literally in various positions in the administration, including the Department of Justice and Department of Defense.”
The timing, both Mr. Orwoll and Mr. Csere said, is right. “I would rather the precedent is set and the discussion is had while there’s a relatively favorable cultural and legal climate for it,” said Mr. Orwoll, 35. “So if we’re going to fight this battle — and it’s a battle that’s going to be fought at some point — it better be now.”

Somehow I missed this when the story broke a few weeks ago: Atomwaffen Division co-founder Brandon Russell has been given a 20-year prison sentence for plotting to attack the Baltimore power grid with his girlfriend (h/t @MusiqueNow). He had been found guilty back in February, but sentencing was only earlier this month.
They picked Baltimore in part because the girlfriend, Sarah Beth Clendaniel, also a neo-nazi, was from the area, but mostly because it's a city with a large Black population. Clendaniel recently got an 18-year sentence for her part in the plot.

The founder of a Florida-based neo-Nazi group has been sentenced to 20 years in federal prison for conspiring with his girlfriend to plan an attack on Maryland’s power grid in furtherance of their shared racist beliefs. Brandon Russell was convicted by a jury earlier this year in federal court in Baltimore. U.S. District Judge James Bredar imposed the maximum sentence allowed following a sentencing hearing Thursday. Russell's co-defendant, Sarah Beth Clendaniel, was previously sentenced to 18 years after pleading guilty to her role in the plot.
