BLM Hurting Blacks-Brandon Tatum

We Never Know

Imagine how different it would be if America had less racism, both historically and now. Of course a community will fight when they lack adequate resources and opportunity. I'm astounded that middle class white people expect marginalized black people and their communities to just behave as if they are white middle class people, even though they have to deal with social and economic prejudices that white people don't have to.

And how does that refer to my post of "Blacks kill more blacks than anyone else. So much for unity"

If you kill more of your own....No matter what others do.. What good comes from it?

So one black man can speak for the experience of all black people?

That's like claiming Donald Trump speaks for all white people. It's laughable.

No.

You called him a white supremacist. Your reaction was typical left wing gibberish..

You always complain that you have to explain and defend your political side. Too bad. Pick a better side.

I don't have a side! I will speak good or bad of either. All you do is post of your side or agaist the other side. *** Mod Edit ***

So just because he is black doesn't mean that he isn't capable of having attitudes against people of his own race? Look at Candice Owens, she is black and very, very conservative. Even in Nazi concentration camps there were Jews that worked with the Nazis so they had an advantage for survival. They worked against their own people so they had a better chance to survive.

Are you unaware of this fact? I'll bet Lyndon is informed, and being informed he has knowledge that allows his better judgment while thinking for himself.

Conservatism has nothing to do with race.

It is true. Urban communities, which are mostly black, are experiencing a torrent of violence since 2020. BLM hasn't helped black people as a whole at all. I always think it's funny that white suburban types in mostly white neighborhoods have lots of BLM yard signs, but in the black neighborhoods they're nowhere to be found.
BLM may have good intentions but it reinforces the distinction of race twofold. It reminds people of the differences and creates racial camps by which your in the club or your not.

I still like Morgan Freeman saying to just stop talking about race and essentially start using people's proper names.

Is it? Prove it. Do they carry signs with Karl Marx's picture? Do they openly advocate for Marxism? Let's see your evidence.

Yes. The leaders said that they were trained Marxist’s.

I'm not really surprised that an officer would object to and try to discredit a movement when one of its objectives is to call out abusive and incompetent policing practices.

BLM is actually a Marxist movement at heart.

I haven't seen evidence of that, but even if it were true, so what? Marxist thought itself is far from uniform or monolithic, and in that respect, it's just like any other ideology (or group of ideologies) with pros and cons.

Is "Marxist movement" supposed to be a scary word by default?
