Quote:I originally quoted and responded to D6. Then, you responded to me responding to him. He called them both evil. I was pointing out his calling of them (KKK) being evil was in reference to what they did in the past, not what they are currently doing hence a bad comparison.


You called me a "minion" because I "spoke on their behalf" (your words). If I'm minion in that regard then you are too because you essentially spoke on D6's behalf when my original post was directed at him (thus quotes).


You're active here in the political section so you must thoroughly read through the posts here for context. There's inflammatory things said in here all the time, the only time you find it wrong is when something is said by JFC and Solid. That's bias. That's also ok, no one is going to recognize that lack of consistency as unbiased.


Where exactly did you come to the conclusion that BLM was for the betterment of the black community?


You asked where you could find record of the good things BLM does in the community and then when presented with a way to find it out your response was not interested. We knew you weren't interested to begin with. You pulled the same shenanigans in the other thread asking JFC "words are nice but what action do you take." Then he told you and you responded you didn't want to get in a [BAD WORD REMOVED] match. That's sane.


It was a sham question. But you obviously see us as fools. And if you see us as fools, it's hard to imagine you want to help the community. Wolf in sheep's clothing.

See, where we seem to differ is in that fact that you perceive a response to a difference of opinion as inflammatory. That's ok. You do you.

 

In general terms, was it not the goal of the BLM to encourage the betterment of the black community by addressing issues of inequality, racism, social injustice, etc, real or perceived? My argument is that it has morphed beyond original intent into something more indirect. More on the scope of organizing protest and demonstrations, sometimes pretty aggressively.  

 

It is a typical redirect and flippant response that has been seen here over and over when approached with a direct inquiry. If you are posting in defense of, you have the burden of proof. I can very well go get the answers or in fact, already known, but that defeats the intent of making yours or anyone else's voice heard. The original issue was the positives are not highlighted in open forum. Why? Why isn't the news reporting these things? Newspapers? Heck, even social media to include those directly in association with BLM. Why is it so hard for folks to come up with the positives and throw them out there for all to see? Why such a big secret?

 

Spare the pity party. You and others have been given the opportunity on this forum to have a voice and to share the positives with those that may not understand. Yet, you and others choose to be defensive and not grasp the opportunity to share. Speak to teach, not just because you have to say something.
