My answer?
Yes, yes they are.
The Credentialed Managerial Class, #white, aspirationally white #PoC, #Black and #indigenous are in an undeclared war against the working class poor they claim to serve!
They don't give a damn about those who can't pass their purity test for the neoliberal value proposition, and that includes the millions of European-Americans desperately clinging to the delusion of #whiteness.
A higher seat at the table, of an unjust system, is not progress, it is a bribe!

Reminder:
I am a #disabled #Asian #AnarchoSocialist & don't support any forms of colonial governments. I am huge on #decolonization & fighting for overdue #justice & #reparations & #equity for #POC communities.
I loathe #colonial #cops & their aligning #bigot governments - want to smash up all #ecocidal corporations & want a lot of #PublicServants aka #POLITICIANS in prison for their multiple #CrimesAgainstHumanity.
@blogdiva @RickiTarr After reading Kendi's _Stamped_ (which argues convincingly that racism & capitalism are conjoined twins)
I realized that #Fascism is what we're taught to call capitalism when it starts treating ytpipo like it's been treating #POC the entire f'ing time
Which is why my energy/funds are now going to the #PoorPeoplesCampaign

Ford has filed a patent with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office for a system that helps law enforcement identify speeders
there also has been instances like this https://www.pcmag.com/news/senators-car-companies-are-giving-location-data-to-police-without-a-warrant
as well as them giving info to insurance without permission with opt out instead of opt in
this info can be dangerous under trump and project 2025 and can be used to track minorities or opponents
The only thing I can say to my #POC family and friends is that WYPIPO vote, and you don't.
That's why things are the way they are.
