    Author of "In Defense of Looting”, published in august.
    Vicky Osterweil, formerly William Osterweil.

    Tl;dr: Property is racism, because all property belongs to white people. Looting is good, because it combats racism and challenges class society, and the best entertainment for the masses is "controlled arson".

    Osterweil uses Korean store owners during the 1992 Los Angeles riots as an illustration of white cisgender male racism at the forefront of white suprematism.

    The most natural reaction to this book would be "if resisting robbery is racism, then I'm racist and I'm proud of it", but you can't say that in America, and so the Americans continue to marinate in their suppressed "racist" urges.

    All Trump has to do is to give a sign, and he will win by a landslide.
    And this is exactly what will happen
