How Do You Spell Hate? T-E-X-A-S. [View all]

This is where all holocausts begin. The notion that some people are destined to rule and others to be ruled. The idea that maybe those others are not people at all.
“I’m glad he’s dead.” That’s what Donald Trump said asked about the passing of Robert Mueller. Mueller was a revered public servant whose final job was to look into Russia’s attempt to interfere in the 2016 election. Trump’s remark was ugly, but he suffered no consequence for it.
“Charlie Kirk was going to hell.” That’s what Ellie Fischer, a law student at Texas Tech and founder of the school’s NAACP chapter is reported to have said. The school investigated and issued a formal reprimand. The investigation wasn’t a one-off. In the weeks after Kirk’s assassination, the Texas Education Agency opened investigations into more than 100 school districts looking for inappropriate comments about the murdered agitator.
Texas law requires every college campus in the state to erect a statue of Charlie Kirk. Kirk was an effective MAGA propagandist, making it safe for a new generation of Americans to engage in racist, homophobic, and antisemitic hate. The law requires each statue to be 8 feet tall. Kirk must be shown with “an aura of destiny and posture of defiance.”
