"The attack on an African-born Muslim is the logical continuation of a political movement that began with the racist lie that President Barack Obama was, in fact, an African-born Muslim. He and his ilk never stopped doing birtherism; it festered and festered until it controlled a state and legal apparatus that could render their fantasies into reality. And then it festered some more."

"Beyond the corruption and the bad cologne, Trumpism has always been a story about who counts as American. The attacks on Mamdani—and the threat to strip him of his citizenship as punishment for his short-lived post-college career as Mr. Cardamom—reflect the rot at the heart of the modern GOP and the exclusionary definition of national identity that made Trump’s rise possible."

"A family is an opportunity to inflict trauma and leverage emotions—including ICE agents callously watching a six-year-old boy with Leukemia wet himself in custody. A nation is a means of hoarding power and wealth and inflicting, through the circumscription of law, as much pain on their enemies as possible."

"It is glaringly obvious in the cruel ways that Trump’s immigration enforcement has targeted families, terrorized children, and attempted to pit neighbors against each other.

For this administration, a healthy community is one that turns on its own out of fear and prejudice."

"Exclusion, along ideological and identitarian lines, is the MAGA ethos. It’s evident in the attacks on LGBTQ people. It’s clear in the way MAGA politicians regard the parental rights of liberal Americans as subordinate to those of the loudest and angriest right-wingers."

You just can’t make this up.
Add “having vocal cords that work” in the list of things one can’t do while Black. The latest example stems from a cafeteria worker in Nevada who filed a lawsuit because a few white teachers complained about her “Black voice.”

White People Did It To Themselves

@Paulatics , absolutely not. You white people did this systematically over centuries. It was not just America.

I can’t feel bad for other countries where white people are the political majority right now, like Canada or Denmark. Ethnocentrism is racism’s little brother, and fascism operates on ethnic boundaries. Historically, fascist regimes didn’t just target people of color—they also persecuted other groups within the ‘white’ population.

For instance, the Nazis targeted Jews, Slavs, Roma, and other ethnicities they considered ‘racially impure,’ despite many of these groups being ethnically white. Even within white-majority countries, divisions exist. In Canada, tensions between Anglophone and Francophone communities, or between Indigenous people and settler populations, highlight that ‘whiteness’ isn’t a unified category. Similarly, in Denmark, the history of Danish colonialism and the treatment of ethnic minorities within their own society complicate the notion of a homogenous white identity. Danish white nationalists, like others, may try to project a unified ‘whiteness,’ but the reality is much more fractured.

Furthermore, the colonial history of European powers, including Danish and British colonialism, has perpetuated ideas of racial superiority that continue to influence attitudes within white-majority societies. The legacy of this imperialism means that the effects of ethnocentrism are not confined by national borders, and the rise of white nationalism in one country can inspire it elsewhere. Even if white people are the majority, those who don’t fit the specific national or ethnic mold—whether in Canada, Denmark, or elsewhere—are often seen as the enemy.

The bottom line is that these ideologies didn’t arise in a vacuum—they were fostered by centuries of imperialism, nationalism, and racial segregation. White-majority societies, including Canadians and Danes, haven’t always taken responsibility for their role in creating these divisions. It’s hard to feel sympathy when the same structures that perpetuate oppression are allowed to persist, even among people who look the same but are divided by an arbitrary notion of ‘whiteness.’

Donald Trump’s suggestion to annex Canada and his attempt to take Greenland is a modern extension of the imperialist ideology that I describe. It can be seen as an expression of American ethnocentrism, treating Canada not as an independent nation but as an entity that could be absorbed into the U.S. without regard to the desires or needs of the Canadian people. This ties back to the idea that such nationalistic and imperial actions are rooted in centuries of racial and cultural domination.

You did it to your fucking selves. I am quite content to see white people eat their own. How many native people have you Canadians killed? The colonizers get colonized. How’s that for poetic?

@viticci I’m growing genuinely concerned about one of these people. Someone who’s so concerned about “being right points” as to avoid trying to understand the situation. And demonstrates blatant #ethnocentrism.
What you describe may not be too dissimilar to Solnit’s keen insight about *splaining.
Unlike you, I haven’t had personal interactions with this character so it’s #Parasocial empathy.

A Texas judge on Thursday said the Barbers Hill Independent School District can punish a Black student who wears his hair in long locs without violating Texas’ new CROWN Act, which is meant to prevent hairstyle discrimination in schools and workplaces.

The decision came after a months - long dispute between the district and Darryl George, a junior at Barbers Hill High School who has been sent to in-school suspension since August for wearing his hair in long locs. Legislators last year passed a law called the Texas CROWN Act that prohibits discrimination on the basis of hair texture or protective styles associated with race. Protective styles include locs, braids and twists.

@TimeCycles In terms of my limited experience, that's an accurate reflection.

Not surprising given that, again, in my experience, young Americans know little if anything about Canada, Canadians, its history, its politics.

The paper is: Jones, D. (2000). Group nepotism and human kinship. Current Anthropology, 41(5): 779-809

It's long and I can't do it justice here, but it is rich with examples of how real-world #kinship obligations work,
and even talks about #ethnocentrism and #ethnonationalism.

Group nepotism is when relatedness is combined with #coordination, i.e., there is sufficient #ingroup #solidarity
for the group to act as a #collective.
