I know the Republicans have a xenophobic streak, but I've seen more nationalism than racism. And I lived for a long time in the Idaho Panhandle when the Aryan Nations were active there. Idaho is red, but not that kind of racist. All I see in the right is border paranoia. That's bad enough, but it ain't a race war.

Meanwhile, I see regular calls for guillotines and "eat the rich" on the left, celebrations of "Louigi's Mansion," the article's mention of the Charlie Kirk assassination reactions, condemnation of Kyle Rittenhouse despite his attempt to retreat from a mob, and how the George Floyd killing started to unite everyone against police procedures until BLM made it all about race while justifying random acts of violence as "racial justice."

I'm no fan of the Republicans, but the American left constantly disgusts me in their responses to injustice and calls for identitarian violence.
