   Yep

   That's exactly what the "class over race" and "focus on the wwc" over the past few years has been about. They feel white people should have a higher standard of living https://t.co/fdjrVqx28C

   I think the white left’s anti-identity politics, white working class first platform is dangerous. FDR made a deal with segregationists-New Deal, but shut out Black people.

    The entire premise of the far left was they were supposed to be a new paradigm. That their politics were so popular that they would easily win over Republicans. That their focus on the issues would make them popular among everyone, especially white working class Republicans https://t.co/boz27LZcMX

    As Americans, we should look to New Zealand in this time of tragedy as a beacon of hope. It's government has responded swiftly and appropriately to a senseless tragedy by restricting access to dangerous firearms. It's time ours does the same. human lives matter.

    Something in the manifesto that I think hasn’t gotten enough attention is his stated refusal to attack law enforcement. White supremacists saw the backlash that McVeigh caused by targeting the FBI and want to avoid it and instead manipulate the state into pursuing their goals.
