Just finished watching Hotel Rwanda (2004), will try to drop some thoughts or review in the comments. #justwatched #watched #cinemastodon #plex #whattowatch #moviedon https://trakt.tv/movies/hotel-rwanda-2004 #HotelRwanda #trakt
Hotel Rwanda (2004)

Inspired by true events, this film takes place in Rwanda in the 1990s when more than a million Tutsis were killed in a genocide that went mostly unnoticed by the rest of the world. Hotel owner Paul Rusesabagina houses over a thousand refuges in his hotel in attempt to save their lives.

Trump's use of the word #vermin reminded me of Rwanda radio hosts working for the Hutus who called the Tutsis cockroaches. And, because Tutsis were taller than Hutus, the hosts said Hutus should "cut the tall trees"

Journalists jailed for inciting Rwandan genocide

Two Rwandan journalists have been sentenced to life in prison and a third to 35 years for their roles in fuelling the 1994 genocide in which 800,000 Tutsis and Hutus were murdered.

Here's Tucker Carlson supporting vigilantes in Kenosha killing BLM protesters. I mashed it up with a clip from #HotelRwanda where RTLM hosts called for Tutsis to attack Hutus.

No prison for #KyleRittenhouse or #Carlson!
