"These guys that marched in Charlottesville. These are the people who are aware of the unspoken premise of this sort of zombie neoliberalism we are living in, which is that we are coming at a point where there is going to be ecological catastrophe, and it's going to either require mass redistribution of the ill-gotten gains of the first world, or genocide. And these are the first people who have basically said, 'if that's the choice, I choose genocide.' And they are getting everybody else ready intellectually and emotionally for why that's going to be okay when it happens. Why 'they’re not really people.' When we’re putting all this money into more fucking walls, and drones, and bombs, and guns to keep em away, so that we can watch them die with clear consciences, it's going to be because we have been loaded with the ideology that these guys are now starting to express publicly. On the other side of them, you have people who are saying in full fucking voice, 'NO! We have the resources to save everybody, to give everybody a fucking decent and worthwhile existence, and that is what we want.' And THAT is the fucking real difference between these two. You can tell that to the next asshole who tells you that they are actually two sides to the same coin."
