Just picked it up from this tweet.

I knew the initial poll was too high. It's gone from 'Well of course their lives matter, all lives do' to 'Yeah we know what that means, fuck off.'

Really makes you think- how much of the "civil rights" movement was actually just what we're seeing now? But has been thoroughly white-washed by teams of stiens and bergs working in corporate journalism?

That's not the case because if it were then you would get white supremacists all over the internet making it a point to point that out about the civil rights movement, just like when white supremacists think they're uncovering MLK's wicked ways by telling people he's a socialist and to add insult to injury he liked fucking white prostitutes as if people didn't know that already, the public knows, the public does not care.

Completely broken logic but okay

The public at large has no idea that MLK was a rapist, no.

This is like saying most people are aware of crime statistics and IQ data.

They're not.
