I think BLM, if it ever even was real, has long since been compromised.

It's funny, I'm pretty anti-transwomen shoehorning their way in to women's spaces, so I see the BLM movement as trying to further shove the trans agenda down people's throats, trying to make it about how black TRANS lives matter. You feel like it's about trying to subjugate white people (I think). I also see people who say it's a communist movement. I think probably all of that is a little true. When something gets that big, you get a lot of fringe groups that join and try to get attention on their causes, and it just turns in to a big cluster fuck.

I don't have a problem with calling out police violence though - and it sounds like you don't either.

So because the solution takes personal responsibility and actually making a difference in your own community instead of tearing it down, black people cant do it? All they can do is riot about something that probably won't even affect them? But something that will affect more of them, they stay silent on.

The life expectancy of white men actually went down recently. Like by 1/4 a year, or some small number... but it went down. From fentanyl. I don't really see a lot of white people doing marches for that. The opoiod issue has finally gotten some press, but it's taken decades. Does that mean white should be denied medical care, because white people obviously don't give a shit about their health, when so many white people are dying from fentanyl overdoses?
