That’s why I have a hard time taking you guys seriously. If you actually believe this way, then the issue can never be solved and nothing will ever be better much less fixed, because nothing is ever good enough for you and the goal posts keep changing. Do you think there will ever be a day when not one person in the country is racist? I dont. As a result, your view of racism can not be fixed so why should I care about your view? Change your views into something that can be measured and obtained, and I will start to care. Until then…yeah …whatever.
Well there still is the false flag racism. Plenty of that is documented. And then the moving goalpost racism… that still exists. The changing of acceptable names for black people is a perfect example. The dismissal of the importance of MLK Jr’s dream of being judged by content of your character and not the color of your skin is another.
Let’s be honest here. Y’all are hung up on the name. If BLM was called something like “Black Justice Now”, we wouldn’t be having this conversation. We wouldn’t hear “But why doesn’t BLM do this? Why doesn’t BLM do that?”.
Do y’all get all bent out of shape when the Susan G. Komen Foundation only focuses on breast cancer? But what about all the other people dying of all the other cancers???
If you think BLM should be focusing on other issues, that’s totally fine. But here’s the thing, that doesn’t mean 1) they have to and 2) it doesn’t make their chosen focus any less important. So while poverty and crime in the black community are critical topics facing blacks today, it doesn’t mean BLM should change their focus.
