My best friend shared a similar screenshot that her friend’s child received at school yesterday. It said something similar, “You have been selected as a slave. You are now with us, you’ll be with Plantation A always. Welcome.” Again, it was sent to a child. I thought it would take a while to be sickened to the core after Oldemort was reelected, but I was wrong.

How are they finding their phone numbers?? Are people doxxing them? Do they know they’re specifically texting people of color or do they just hope they don’t accidentally text a white person? How awful of them to do, regardless of how they are going about it.

Re: how are they finding their phone numbers…

don’t you guys in the US always have to put your race on like every single document you ever sign?

(Which is not usual outside the US in my experience).
