Kim Crayton ~ Her/SheAug 29, 2023

Every time I hear the term “normal republican” vs “the crazies” it’s hard for me not to laugh because it is the effort and/or complicity of “normal republicans” who vote against their own interests or inflict harm on their voters in service to maintaining white supremacy and its power

It’s “normal republicans” who for years birthed and nursed the ideology that is now the doctrine of “the crazies”

This who these folx have always been

@KimCrayton1 Most of my rural, religious family is remarkably progressive, but we do have a contingent who went full MAGA. Thing is - they were always racist. They were the ones sending their kids to be missionaries to fuck up other countries. They were always homophobic, preaching "hate the sin" so hard that love never came into it. The ONE difference is that now they feel confident to say what they want, where for about 40 years or so, in a few places, they didn't. It's horrific, not new.
