You don't even understand what BLM actually is, you just said you thought people were protesting over 8 black deaths.

No I understand perfectly well what BLM actually is, or what its being used for. The media pushing BLM has as much to do with saving black lives as them pushing the Iraq war had to do with "WMD".

Think about the fact that you're trying to equate protests against police brutality to the Iraq War because the news reported on both of them. It's so flimsy it could be satire, you obviously just don't like black people.

The media didnt just "report" on the Iraq war, they helped cause it. They pushed the narrative that Iraq was a grave threat to Americans and repeated falsehoods about everything from Iraqi-Al Queda connections to Iraq having stockpiles of "WMD" they possibly planned to use on Americans.

Just like the media isnt merely "reporting" on those 8 black deaths. They are pushing a narrative that blacks are the victims of a white conspiracy to kill and oppress them, and like their Iraq claims, there is very little evidence supporting that, hence they arent merely reporting. As for my objection to this media manipulation meaning I "dont like black people", im not quite understanding how those two add up. We know black homicides have skyrocketed since this media narrative began being pushed, so one could logically conclude that the media doesnt like black people(or as I believe simply see them as ends to a means).

They're relative terms, I don't care what you think counts as right or left.

Nor do I personally care what you think, beyond the fact you think what the media pushes, so your ignorance(or intellectual dishonestly) is a good indication of how successful this media manipulation is. Fortunately I dont think most people are as rigid as you. You have been exposed to plenty of evidence contradicting your world view, and have never changed it in the slightest. You are likely incapable of doing so. Most people are, which is why views to the contrary are censored. If they werent afraid of the truth they wouldnt need to censor and punish those who speak it.

I'm really not rigid in my thinking, I can just tell when somebody is talking out of their ass.

They are pushing a narrative that blacks are the victims of a white conspiracy to kill and oppress them

Another example of your total ignorance of the relevant issues

You have been exposed to plenty of evidence contradicting your world view, and have never changed it in the slightest.

Give me one example. You don't even understand my worldview.
