The whole story: Before and after video of Nathan Phillips, #MAGAyouth and more

(and, lest we forget, these white males were originally protesting women's right to reproductive autonomy, the patriarchal assholes)

(a number of images and videos of the incident, from Indian Country Media)

Nathan Phillips is not just an Omaha elder, he is a keeper of the sacred pipe.

From the article:

Video footage posted on the patheos blog site titled "LETTERS FROM THE EDGE OF ELFLAND" shows the four men yelling expletives to Indigenous people at the march telling them that "God took away their land" for worshiping animals and that the word "Indian means savage." They also insult Native elders, women and men.

Like the clip showing them telling a girl that it is not rape of you like it.

And the "blackface" clips from basketball games.

Boys being boys?

No, young racists behaving as racists.

I was feeling so happy, with the references to baseball and Lego toys, and then came the cold shower.
