The average American is evidently very willing to engage in adventurist acts. It’s not a huge leap for them to start picking different targets.

My spouse has a nurse coworker who has six-figure student debt. She’s working thirteen-hour night shifts many days of the week to pay it off, and still studying to become an NP (which is like a super nurse and very well-paid). My spouse describes herself as “a socialist but not a communist” but she is also thankfully missing lots of liberal brainworms—a few weeks ago she mentioned that this coworker had said something about “Uyghurs,” which my spouse had never heard of. But oh man, of course I know all about it. And I was just like…you’re drowning in debt, you’re crying in front of your coworkers every day, you’re either working or studying almost every waking moment for month after month, and this is what you’re worried about? This is the kind of media you’re consuming? You hate Chinese people, you hate Muslims, but you’re very concerned about Chinese Muslims—right? And of course, not a word about Palestine from this coworker. Not a single complaint about the Democrats never lifting a finger to provide universal education or even pay people to go to school.

Whiteness just boggles the mind I guess. So many destitute Americans (many who are not white on the outside at least) will jump whenever the ruling class tells them to.
