    America was founded as a dictatorship of Whiteness, but when Obama got elected they realized their power was under threat and became fascists.

      I grow strong with each triggered conservative that downvotes this comment. Also, dope username

      I will add that I don’t think that was a conscious reaction. We’ve decades of data showing that “overt” racism has been consistently declining, while “covert” racism has taken its place. That’s why you don’t see people saying “Obama was a bad president because he was black,” but they’ll complain about a tan suit.
