On this day, 12 August 2017, 32-year-old anti-racist Heather Heyer was killed and dozens injured in a white supremacist terrorist attack in Charlottesville, Virginia. Heather was one of thousands of people protesting against a Unite the Right rally of neo-Nazis, Ku Klux Klan activists and other white nationalists and anti-Semites, when she was hit by a car driven at speed deliberately into the crowd by 20-year-old Nazi James Alex Fields Jr, who was pictured previously on the Unite the Right protest holding a shield emblazoned with the logo of Vanguard America, a far right group. Elsewhere in the city, another group of fascists attacked and viciously beat DeAndre Harris, a young African-American education worker, leaving him with spinal and other injuries. President Donald Trump described the neo-Nazis as “very fine people”. https://www.facebook.com/workingclasshistory/photos/a.296224173896073/1186799438171871/?type=3
This blog is mostly so I can vent my feelings and share my interests. Other than that, I am nothing special.
If you don't like Left Wing political thought and philosophy, all things related to horror, the supernatural, the grotesque, guns or the strange, then get the fuck out. I just warned you.
