You mean things that happened over 100 years ago, as opposed to the modern days anarchists/Marxists who physically take over public and private property to declare autonomous zones?

 

Do you own a functioning mirror?  And what does it show?

 

 

 

I'm guessing you're ignoring the precedent set by a certain POTUS who was in charge in 2014-2015 when these policies were put in place?  Never mind that the people you are referring to are not citizens or legal aliens living in the US, and are not entitled to all the protections of US law.  You'd figure even a 3rd rate lawyer would know that.

 

It appears that the intellectual standard bearer of this alt wrong community is unfamiliar with Jim Crow laws, the civil rights movement of the 1960s, and the Wallace-style presidential campaign that he now supports.

And demanding equality after approximately 400 years isn't marxist.  Or nihilist. Or facist.  Or the musing of an anarchist.  It's consistent with the political principles upon which this country was founded and to which it aspires (but has not perfected).  It's also consistent with the teachings of Jesus.

Can someone please explain to me how pancake syrup, movies, books, statues, logos and buildng names weren't racist when Obama was President?

Some of those things were.  It doesn't change the fact that they're racist now.  So you can cling to your statutes of Robert E. Lee, or you can get with the moment and recognize that they subjugate the people you cheer for on Sunday.

And you can delude yourself that the political party that has subjugated black for years offers a path to sunshine if only Joe Biden is elected President and Democrats control the Congress.  It didn't happen when they had control of the government in past years and it won't happen this time either.  Food stamps and cell phones don't lead to a united nation.

Not All Black Lives Matter to Black Lives Matter

This week, CNN's Don Lemon, who has spent the last few weeks bashing the supposed thoroughgoing systemic racism of the United States, hosted black actor Terry Crews. He then proceeded to browbeat Crews, who had committed the great sin of tweeting, "#ALLBLACKLIVESMATTER

 

9 black CHILDREN killed by violence in Chicago since June 20, 2020." Lemon specifically objected to Crews' hashtag. After Lemon humbly informed Crews that he has skin "as tough as an armadillo," he then lectured: "The Black Lives Matter movement was started because it was talking about police brutality. ...

 

But that's not what Black Lives Matter is about. It's not ... all-encompassing ... The Black Lives Matter movement is about police brutality and injustice in that matter, not about what's happening in black neighborhoods."

 

This, of course, is largely false. The Black Lives Matter movement did indeed begin with protests about police brutality but quickly morphed into broader debates over the validity of looting and rioting, tearing down historic statues, slavery reparations and defunding the police. And Black Lives Matter, as Crews correctly pointed out, has never restricted its mandate to the question of police violence: It has announced that its focuses also include police brutality, transgender rights, gay rights, disrupting the nuclear family and freeing Palestine, among other diverse topics.

 

So why is Lemon so deeply invested in preventing conversations about black lives? Why, in fact, do only some black lives matter, rather than all?

 

That's not merely a question asked by conservatives or contrarians. It's being asked all over the United States by black Americans being left to the predations of criminals, in large part thanks to the woke virtue signaling of many Black Lives Matter leaders and media allies.

 

In Washington, D.C., Mayor Muriel Bowser emblazoned the enormous yellow words "BLACK LIVES MATTER" on 16th Street. Protesters quickly added "DEFUND THE POLICE."

 

One month later, 11-year-old Davon McNeal was shot in the head while heading to a family cookout on July 4. His grandfather, John Ayala, lamented: "We're protesting for months, for weeks, saying, 'Black Lives Matter. Black Lives Matter.' Black lives matter it seems like, only when a police officer shoots a black person. What about all the black-on-black crime that's happening in the community?"

 

McNeal was just one of the latest victims of a wave of violence gripping America's major cities. Last weekend, at least 89 people were shot in Chicago, leaving at least 17 dead. Shootings in Philadelphia have spiked 67%. In the first week of June, Los Angeles saw a shocking 250% increase in murders from the prior week. New York City's shootings have skyrocketed 44% over last year's numbers; every person shot there the week of June 29 -- 101 -- was from a minority community. It turns out that the agenda of Black Lives Matter, which includes fighting against the prevalence of police -- a call taken up by Democratic mayors and city councils around the United States -- endangers black lives far more than the presence of police.

 

Yet these lives don't particularly matter for Black Lives Matter advocates, apparently. Black lives matter when we're talking about police brutality. But Don Lemon has no airtime each night for those who seek to talk about threats to black lives that dwarf in severity problems related to policing -- and that are just as newsworthy. Indeed, the statistical case is unassailable that the daily murder of minority youths in America's major cities is far more newsworthy than the latest cable panel discussion of "white fragility" or the "power of whiteness."

 

But our current Black Lives Matter moment isn't about Davon McNeal, even if the wages of Black Lives Matter's recommended policies are death for those left unprotected by law enforcement. All that matters for too many in our elite institutions is the narrative that America's systems are the greatest obstacle to black Americans. And not all lives lost are equally valuable in promoting that perverse narrative.

Sure, fall back on the familiar trope and ignore the increasingly vocal crowd advocating for an open revolution.

So, let me get this straight...when BLM gets upset when people say All Lives Matter, it’s not because they think you’re equating black deaths to other races, but literally because NOT ALL black lives matter to them??? Interesting...tell me more...

Love the thread, but it should really be changed to “Marxist Protests” because Liberals and Conservatives are allies against Marxism. ?

Yeah this is going to be a land slide win for Trump. Every single lifelong  democrat I know is now voting Republican including myself because the Democrat party now has turned into the Communist (Democratic) Party.

This is where the Kemps and Penfields explain that Communism won't fail in America because this time we'll do it right!
