A contributing editor for the prominent African-American website Ebony.com has written an op-ed in which he clearly and repeatedly states that he wants supporters of Donald Trump to die, the Daily Caller News Foundation reports.

The op-ed by Damon Young appeared Wednesday on another website of which he is editor in chief, verysmartbrothas.com, where he expressed his disdain for Trump supporters.

Young believes that race is behind much of the motivation of those who have backed the Republican nominee.

"No nothing besides confusion, shame, and, if the confusion and the shame isn't enough to convince them to at least consider not hating me and people who look like me and people who don't look like them, death," Young wrote.

"Yes, you read that correctly. I want these motherfuckers to lose," Young continued. "And if losing what might be the last winnable election for them in a millennia isn't enough for them to move into the 21st century, I wouldn't terribly mind if they withered the fuck away and died."

Young said that he would write a thank you card to the Trump supporters afterward, adding that he wishes nothing positive for them.

"I do not want these people to feel good or inspired. I do not want them to receive some type of collective psychic victory. I do not want them to experience any measure of positive reinforcement," Young wrote.
