I personally believe the best way to combat ideas you may find white supremecist is to face them head on. Let the bad ideas fail on their merits, which is why I only softly moderate the comment section here compared to Evanston Now or RT.

Exactly Tom! I recently told some weirdly defensive women on District65parentsandguardians page that I am not afraid to call out bigotry in whatever form it comes in the moment. The Evanston I know was never so strangely concerned with being woke or harboring MAGA. I don’t think any of us should stand aside and let bullies take over this city. There is a lot of work to do.

Agree, Tom. And I appreciate you bringing incidents like these to our attention and then sticking around to moderate/engage in thoughtful discussion.
