You're dodging the issue.
People who want equality are violent thugs? OK bud. Where is that evidence that less than 95% of BLM protests over last summer were peaceful?

There is a reason most Americans no longer trust or support BLM. The name was always a lie, promoting something very different from their real aims and objectives.
You've fallen for the right wing narrative. There are plenty of bad actors who try to take over good movements for personal gain, but that does not affect the movement itself.
There were people like you who criticized the civil rights movement after Dr King was assassinated. There were bad actors who tried to monetize it, and it gave people like you an excuse to dismiss the entire movement.
"See, Dr King just wanted to get rich! It was never about civil rights!" - oldbear in 1968
It's fine that you like BLM, but that last post was just slimy, Porteroso.
Show me one time - ever - that I posted a racist comment here on SicEm365, or apologize for that slander.
My guess is you will just slink away and pretend you didn't say it.
I'm drawing comparisons to like situations. It's not rocket science. If you are against a movement named "black lives matter" in 2021, because some bad actors tried to monetize it, I can't imagine you supported the Civil Rights movement in the 1960s.
And don't pretend you actually want a response. You ignore the points I make in favor of straw man arguments.
As expected, Porteroso, you prove yourself a coward and a boor. Nothing better than sewer waste with a keyboard.
There seems to be a lot that old people just can't deal with. Puts nursing homes in a new light for me.
