We live in an age of Republican Party sanctioned and encouraged vigilantism. Kyle Rittenhouse, the murder of Trayvon Martin, “stand your ground “ laws, concealed carry laws, etc are all designed to unleash right wing hyper masculine vigilantes on the nation, targeting black and brown people and black and brown protesters. It’s not just the despicable mentally ill Trump. It’s the white supremacist twisted notion of masculinity - guns, violence, cowboy take the law in your own hands masculinity- John Wayne replaces Jesus “christianity”.
The Rittenhouse verdict guarantees that there will be blood. The vigilante laws want blood. It’s all about putting the libs, the blacks, the browns, the reds, the yellows, the gays, the women back in their places doncha know….
