Does it seem like <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/PlantationNation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>PlantationNation</span></a> is saying that Black and brown people are needed as hired killers/front-line fodder (and of course as your server!) and not as educated, equal, wealth-growing members of the civilian mainstream? That's how it seems to these aged POC eyes, and I am sick of this. <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Resist" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Resist</span></a></p>
