People are being kidnapped and attacked by masked men in major cities in America.
They are handcuffing children in the middle of the night.
They are acting like the SS of the Nazi Party in Germany which led to WORLD WAR II.
Blaming Muslims in Detroit does absolutely nothing to change the situation today.

Descendants of Jim Crow.
I need Muslims in Detroit to acknowledge that Black Americans are living in 1877 while they are all la di dah . . . The Future of Palestine.
I'm 52. This rift will be there for the rest of my life.

Stop fighting allies.

Hitler territory.
They didn't think about Americans, just their cause.
If they had united allies they might have achieved their goal.

Now - they are upset because we don't care about any of their causes.

Be here now. With Black Americans.
We've ALWAYS been the end game.
And yes - they were Black children.
Point blank - most Black Americans including myself know we don't have allies in America. America has shown us time and again they can't be trusted.
To be clear: you aren't my ally.

Agreed, there's nothing to be gained by blaming American muslims now,
especially those who are regretting their votes...
Rather, we should do what we can to rebuild the 2020 Biden coalition---
or the 2008 Obama coalition !!!!

The Great American Failure is "let's just come together". It's Status Quo thinking.
It's why we are and have always been a shit ass country. People- well some - have never had to pay the price for their ACTIVE choices.
I'm prepared to let people suffer consequences now.
