This is a meme mocking the notion of institutional racism, so I'm not sure where BLM fits into that argument or mine. I think you're conflating the two.

Dear edgelord, I'll give you the benefit of the doubt and assume that you're 13 and have been raised by stupid assholes. If this is not the case then you have no excuse. Will be back later tonight and hopefully will have more time to insult you then.

A lot to unpack here. The paragraph that is scribbled out are symptoms of institutional racism which cause the end result of a higher poverty rate per capita for African Americans. If you need me to explain the processes that perpetuate this reality, I can but it won't be until tonight.

Why is it that hard to understand what Black Lives Matter means? It's possible to understand that crime in empoverished communities is a problem and also fight for policies that get black people out of the very ghettos that cause that crime. It's all related but I guess that too nuanced for half of the people in this thread to comprehend.

I posted this on /r/linux but it was removed. I'll be trying this site out after 10 years of using reddit. I just can't anymore:

Next I guess the security community should get rid of the terms black hat and white hat. Red Hat should change their name too since it could be insensitive to Native Americans. Code Pink should change their name as it promotes gender conformity.

Those of you wasting time supporting this are virtue signaling. You're not doing anything positive by policing language. The U.S. is falling apart but pat yourselves on the back because you did something that makes you feel morally superior.

Use that energy to do something difficult. Use that energy to solve problems that cause real world misery and suffering. This ain't it.
