So many assumptions, hilarious. You think I don't know that interracial violence is extremely low?
To the first question, it is more and more common for conservatives to be able to say out loud "black lives matter" but most wouldn't 2 or 3 years ago, because they hadn't yet figured out that you can say a group matters without supporting the ideology of te group. But all lives matter was a way to not have to say black lives matter. Of course it is true, but I only ever talked with 1 conservative who wouldn't agree that black lives matter. He kept saying all lives do, so I explained to him what j just said, and his response was that the slogan "black lives matter" made him feel like white lives don't. Point is the vast majority of conservatives here wouldn't even post black lives matter in lower case. It is truly a forum of ultra funding zealots. Just like yourself. I rarely encounter people like you in real life.
I'm not sure if you know about the history of blacks in America, but honestly just go talk with a black person about it, read a book, whatever. The level of ignorance, to say that it is widely held that all lives matter, as if that is the moral compass of the country, I just can't help you with that. You want to believe racism is dead so you don't have to deal with it. Others of us live in the real world.
To believe, that all your typing was an attempt to paint the narrative of "black lives matter" as false or untrue. Unreal.
By the way, I answered your questions, but you have not given me an explanation of why black lives matter is untrue. I expect that in your next post.
"I rarely encounter people like you in real life." - that's pretty evident. It's quite evident there is a dearth of critical thinking within your circle, given your takes.
No, you did NOT answer my questions. Where is your answer as to why if you said "all lives matter" or "white lives matter" in a BLM riot/protest you would be met with hostility? Where is your answer as to why the BLM narrative is directed against white America instead of Black America given the statistics that 99% of black lives are killed by other blacks? Where is your answer as to why BLM thinks it is necessary to single out black lives as mattering, apart from other races, and why there is passion and anger behind it?? These questions were meant for you to see that the BLM narrative does not just begin and end with the face value of the slogan, as you were laughably asserting.
Your post is so dumb I don't even know where to begin. Capitalize "black lives matter"?? You don't need to capitalize it unless you are directly referring to the slogan or the organization. If you are simply just talking about "black lives mattering", e.g. if you're asking someone, "do you think black lives matter?" then there is no need to capitalize it. The fact that you'd make an issue over not capitalizing every instance of that phrase is just so pathetic it's beyond words. "Most conservatives would never post 'black lives matter' in lowercase" HUH?? What in the heck are you even talking about??
And HERE'S THE KICKER - YOU yourself didn't capitalize "black lives matter", EVEN when you were referring to the organization/movement!! Here's a direct quote from your previous post:
"Again, the narrative that black lives matter espouses is that black lives matter."
WOW. So are you the "zealot" you're talking about?
Again, let me reiterate the fact that I strongly suspected I wasn't going to get anywhere with you because of the level of your cluelessness, and that's been demonstrated here to a tee. If you are wanting my answer as to why BLM's narrative is false, well, that is what I was trying to do through those questions that you say you answered but didn't. So give them another shot, if that's what you really want. If your latest post is any indication, though, I won't be holding my breath for anything coherent.
The fantasia you have going on is too much. You seem incapable of reading. You construct a strawman that doesn't involve me with your question of why blm people in your head get violent when someone righteous also from your head says all lives matter. I can't answer that. Never seen it.
It is just a fact that interracial violence is extremely low. Do you think this fact means black lives don't matter? How does it defeat this narrative?
And black people obviously think it is important that the world acknowledge that specifically, black lives matter. Ask them if you don't understand why, but probably, centuries of discrimination and marginalization have to do with it. Open displays of racism during the Trump era, right after many blacks feel such a massive step forward was made as the first President was elected who wasn't a white male. I'm just guessing.
Again, you did not answer my question. Asking loaded questions is not an answer to a question. It is an attempt to deflect. Man up and answer the question, or I'm done engaging with you. You have to be capable of contributing something that makes sense to be worth my time. I don't spend all day on this forum like some.
Okay, clearly I'm dealing with an idiot.
"

Because we're not talking about you. We're talking about the "blm" (you didn't capitalize!) movement and their narrative, remember? Good grief, you are so clueless it's really starting to HURT.
"

That wasn't the fact presented. The fact was not about
interracial violence, but about the overwhelming numbers of
black on black violence. And you accuse ME of being "incapable of reading"?? Unbelievable, beyond words.
And DO YOU NOT REALIZE that you had just got on to me for a whole paragraph for not capitalizing "black lives matter" when you yourself had done that very thing, and you did it again here just now? Does that even register anything with you? At a least a degree of humility? And with this degree of unawareness, doesn't that really put your perspective on things under heavy question? Shouldn't it make you question yourself? It should.
You are also incapable of realizing that I AM answering your question - it's what those questions were meant to do. They were to get you to realize it for yourself. But obviously, you're showing that you can't even read and comprehend the questions themselves, so as I had already suspected this is all going to be unfruitful.
