When I see #RubyBridges is 72 today I realize that she is 12 years younger than my (estranged) mother. My parents’ deep racism suddenly recontextualized from a disgraceful anachronistic anomaly, to the sad reality that the people of “that time” are still in THIS time voting and making decisions.

I know there's a fear of abusing the terms "fascist" or "(neo)nazi" due to their historical weight, anachronism etc, but sometimes safeguarding it too much makes you miss labelling actual nazis that would proudly claim the label.

altho, a little like saying the framers trusted states, not washington, with religious establishment. i mean, first anachronism is there is no washington yet. 2nd is, ofc no state trusted the union w voting. that would have been incomprehensible. and voting for what? barely any federal franchise!
