I've tried for four years to emphasize exactly why I gave up on Amerikans, why I just let myself bitter into genuine hatred. You've nailed every single point. The Amerikan ethos has never been "give me your poor, your shunned, and your throwaways"-- it has always been "this is mine, hands off it or die." Fuck it. Let them wallow in their own blood and shit like the pigs they are. My energy is better saved and better spent just looking for a way out. I've got nothing and no one to preserve here.

“Dr. King's policy was that nonviolence would achieve the gains for black people in the United States. His major assumption was that if you are nonviolent, if you suffer, your opponent will see your suffering and will be moved to change his heart. That's very good. He only made one fallacious assumption: In order for nonviolence to work, your opponent must have a conscience. The United States has none.” -- Kwame Ture
