A white supremacist murders two African-Americans in cold blood in a Louisville supermarket because of their race. A NeoNazi anti-semite murders eleven Jews in cold blood in their Pittsburgh house of worship because of their religion. That's just the last few days! Surely the intense media coverage will inspire similar armed bigots in this benighted country. What we need to fight is not "hate"--which is a universal and often useful emotion--but racial and religious bigotry and dehumanization. But that's hard to do when the nominal President of the United States is a racial and religious bigot himself.
