❝ I knew that America would never invest the necessary funds or energies in rehabilitation of its poor so long as adventures like Vietnam continued to draw men and skills and money, like some demonic, destructive suction tube.

am going to keep boosting this thread til y’all start posting new quotes back at me.
and do us all a favor: never, ever say that Dr Martin Luther King Jr DIED.
the fascist fuck Henry Kissinger died in his sleep. Dr. King was ASSASSINATED. so were Medgar Evars, Malcolm X, Fred Hampton.
today should be a day of atonement for white Americans. unfortunately, most don't know the meaning of the word.
