where by and large they would use other straw men (black on black crime! more white people killed by cops!) to avoid the conversation either because of their own racist bias or because the status quo doesnt affect them

I just can't imagine an alternate universe america where lets say #blm used the 'All Lives Matter' hashtag that suddenly those people would 'get it'. They are already firm in their agendas and/or bubbles, verbiage would make no difference.

Its just another version of respectability politics which we know doesn't work.
