For some time now, Donald Trump’s America has been rising to the surface in the form of outright racism and violence, but one anonymous person in particular has taken it much too far. Neo-Nazis and white supremacists, which of course already existed, have suddenly become bolder and begun to make their harmful messages more public.

The nation has made great strides in progressing towards more acceptance, cultural pluralism, and inclusion and electing Donald Trump would certainly cause huge setbacks. Apparently, it could even encourage citizens to promote a past genocide…
