The number of Black men and women being found hanging from trees is outrageous and terrifying. The silence is beyond comprehension. Black people are not suddenly choosing to lynch themselves. What in the actual fuck is happening in this country, and why isn’t anything being said or done about it.

They’re not confused about “86.” They’re lying about it. It’s a century-old phrase that means “get rid of it”—not “kill.” Restaurants 86 items. Bars 86 disruptive people. “8647” = remove from power. Vote out. This fake outrage isn’t about safety. It’s about distraction.
