  • That’s not really a good example. He was fully masked and all the people involved were black (the bank teller who called the cops, the cops that showed up, etc.). He was also “sketchy” (from the bank teller’s perspective) with writing an awkward note to withdraw a large sum of money and that he wanted it done discreetly. It was still a fuck up on Bank of America’s part, but in this instance I give the bank teller some amount of understanding when the entire context is taken into considering. Ryan Coogler even said he was satisfied with how BoA apologized and whatnot.

    All that being said, if it was a poor person in this situation… I highly doubt the outcome would’ve been so cordial










  • Highly doubtful. Just read first-hand accounts from the many people that have escaped the country. It is a pretty bleak place to exist. If they literally make it illegal for their citizens to have real Internet, chances are your oppressor is doing some pretty awful things. It’s why the current American fascist regime has “humored” restricting Internet access. Same reason Iran cut off Internet access during their recent unrest where the government killed thousands of civilian protestors.










  • I feel like crazy, because signs of his dementia have been clearly obvious for several years now. Why is anyone surprised by this nonsensical letter?

    He is not “running” the country, his cronies are. They let him pop off with stupid shit like this because his handlers have learned that if they don’t let him do shit like this while their machinations are carried out in the background, he turns on them and they get kicked out of his cult. So they loot and pillage the country while their cult leader goes off on his tangents and pursues his weird/ridiculous/frightening vendettas. M
