    I don’t know, I think that still counts as self-hatred, in a way. You have to be some special kind of fucked up to hate another group of people so intensely that you’d voluntarily wade knee-deep in shit just to shove them in down to their shoulders.

      Minorities in politics are always going to be experiencing a completely different live than the average person. They live in their nice big house in their gated community and probably face little to no racism irl. They just don’t care.
