Okay let’s open with two facts about myself. 1) I am a white man, from the middle class, a child of priviledge, and like all priviledged people I hate to admit it. 2) I’m not planning to agonize too hard about how to put things (because I have no readers so wth) so I’m probably gonna say something racist or idiotic or both and I can only hope that the context will show that I’m not that terrible. Okay let’s get started.   In my thinking and speaking about race I have always tried to be objective, but I think it is important to also be subjective. I have been wanting to write about my personal experience in this racist world as a white person, but been afraid to because most people that do that are racists.

The official line out of the white house over this whole comey thing is basically “what’s the problem? I thought all you liberals hated this guy” and strangely enough it’s making me think again about the democratic primary. Because both represent a flagrant abuse of power? Yes, but for another reason, both show those in power grossly oversimplifying the politics of the people. So here’s the trump administration saying, ‘liberals hate comey because of the election, so nobody’s gonna care if I get rid of him’ and meanwhile liberals all over the country are saying ‘ya we had an issue with him but that doesn’t mean you can do whatever your fascist ass wants.’ Turns out that details matter, context matter, and that the public is capable of having complex opinions. Perhaps this is a new phenomenon as people are paying more attention. So the democratic primary, remember when all the old pundits and journalists were confused about young people supporting Bernie Sanders, because young peopl
