I imagine that these protests will be far more damaging and entertaining than 2020 BLM, since a far larger portion of the population feels attacked; that is, feminists of all stripes, rather than a mere ethnic minority and their sympathizers.

You obviously have little understanding of the current political situation if you can think something so completely wrong.

Let's look at the figures I provided.

Blacks = officially 13.4%;

Women [irrespective of race] = officially 50.8%;

The latter is almost quadruple the size of the former.

In order for your reasoning to be correct, that a perceived attack on all blacks is more of an affront than a perceived attack on all women, each woman would effectively have to possess around four times less victimhood than the average black. At that point, the outrage would only be equivalent to 2020 BLM.

You know that that's wrong: even if the average black person, male or female, is assigned a greater victimhood value than the average woman, it is nowhere near four times higher.

The fact of the matter is remarkably simple: even if blacks possess more per capita victimhood than women in general, there is no way in hell that that would compensate for the sheer difference in total numbers.

Floyd's death was perceived as an attack on 13.4% of Americans.

The SCOTUS decision was perceived as an attack on 50.8% of Americans.

The higher level of victimhood assigned to blacks, while narrowing the difference somewhat, doesn't narrow anywhere near all of it, such that these riots will be only equivalent to, or lesser than, 2020 BLM.

From the average American's perspective, the SCOTUS just declared war on a majority of Americans.

White Americans are also approximately 50% of the population. How does your analysis account for that?

Mathematics is not a useful tool for answering this type of question.

Even if we reframe the above to be perceived attacks on:

Blacks + non-black sympathizers with the 'oppose anti-black racism' cause = (Those who view themselves as under attack plus those who feel they need to defend those who believe they are under attack now constitute something greater than 13.4%)

Women + non-women sympathizers with the 'oppose anti-woman sexism' cause = (Same as above, but now constituting something greater than 50.8%)

The latter still surely constitute a far greater portion of the population even if it isn't strictly the 'almost quadruple' you replied to. There's simply a whole lot more potential rioters this time around, and we can already see that there is a pretty heavy male presence in some of these videos reinforcing that targeted demographic.

I also have no idea why people are bothering to make these kinds of comments. Does it look like I made this post to argue with various people whose views are warped by their animus towards blacks greatly exceeding their love of Whites, such that they are willing to harm the latter in order to also harm the former? Or with people who are conflicted between their social progressive viewpoints and their White ethnonationalism and thus experience cognitive dissonance when their interests clash, i.e. on the matter of White abortion, which is practically what Ethnocrat has done since he moved from the more general pro-abortion stance of libtard trash like Spencer to the 'What race is it?' stance much more congruent with the standard DR stance on the matter?

Now, I don't know what your view is, other than that you have felt unsympathetic enough to have taken a stab at my argument that 2022 is going to be much more riotous than 2020. But I think it's clear that I don't want an information/updates thread to be full of counter-signalling from people like Ethnocrat (who I presume read absolutely nothing of my post, and reflexively commented because this event creates cognitive dissonance in anyone who is 'Far-Right' and yet liberal on abortion ('the abortionists are right to protest... but they're also progressive nutcases who I oppose on practically everything else, I feel uneasy considering this topic and don't want to be reminded about it!') and JuliusCaesar225 (who I presume only read two sentences before immediately nitpicking at one of them). Low-effort comments on an 'effortpost'? That's not my kind of thing.

This is a debate forum, not social media - there is nothing to "counter-signal" here, there are only different views. I agree that some of the comments in this thread are low effort, but that does not necessarily mean that they are wrong. At any rate, if you are presenting updates on the development of events here, there will be nothing for people to disagree with or complain about. Your analysis, however - which, in some respects, as I suggested earlier, is in my opinion incorrect - is not immune to criticism.
