I mean, it's it you never really we talk all the time about fascism.

And we know that part of what fascism is, is that your government will direct its awesome power against individual citizens.

We know that's a possibility.

But, you know, as somebody said to me the other day, I thought they put it so well.

It's been a person two or three degrees from you.

And then it's one degree away from you.

And then it's literally somebody you know who you text with and who's your friend.

You know what I mean?

It comes closer and closer and closer.

It creeps closer and closer and closer until it's literally upon you.

And then in your case, it's you.

And so, you know, we're really, I think, processing as a country what authoritarianism is.

And for people who think, oh, this is just abstract.

This is not our issue.

This is not about us, particularly Black folks.

It's about us.

Because you notice that what they finally drew down to is nine Black people.

and attack Black immigrants.
