"the byproduct of terming it black lives matter "


  

          

is it gives other people who @ best. @ their absolute BEST are benignly indifferent to the lives of masses of "others" a reason to not give a fuck.

& thats a 2 way street, the average Black person doesnt GAF abt immigration for example.

so i get that #alllivesmatter shit because! this is an issue that DOES impact...all people, that cant be denied.

its just sad that when Black people start talking abt Black shit, everyone else suddenly gets offended...but thats the world we in

Dec 23rd 2014

Dec 23rd 2014
17
      and there are, have been, and will be many solidarity BLM protests
Dec 23rd 2014
22
      & thats outstanding. Fr. Pfleger in Chicago. love that guy.
Dec 23rd 2014
28
           that is just not the objective IMO
Dec 23rd 2014
34
           What you're saying is that real solidarity don't exist
Dec 23rd 2014
69
      they're saying what you're saying but they're not Black men
Dec 23rd 2014
30
           thats not what im saying tho.
Dec 23rd 2014
36
                good for you.
Dec 23rd 2014
40
                so therefore your previous statement is wrong.
Dec 23rd 2014
44
                     oh, no i stand by that.
Dec 23rd 2014
47
                you can't go anywhere FROM Black lives matters
Dec 23rd 2014
43
                & i *think* i have that now. i stand corrected.
Dec 23rd 2014
45
                     why is it a subset all of a sudden?
Dec 23rd 2014
51
                     because i thought it was abt police brutality?
Dec 23rd 2014

Dec 23rd 2014
73
                                         ok. got it.
Dec 23rd 2014

I'm anti- #AllLivesMatter at this point
Jul 12th 2016

      C'mon, they're intentionally not getting it. Willfully ignorant
Jul 12th 2016

                                         Nigga wtf is wrong with you
Jul 12th 2016
199
      You don't have to.

Jul 12th 2016

                right. numbers don't count. cool ok.
Jul 12th 2016
149
                     no, we don't need people like you need a name change

Jul 12th 2016
145
                          glad we settled that, now you can be wrong about something else
Jul 12th 2016
160
                     the name is blocking progress bc America has a problem with blackness
Jul 12th 2016
148
                     My point is there is a problem with the name
Jul 12th 2016
157
                          bruh, an election has 2 candidates...
Jul 12th 2016
161
                          Way to not answer the question. But ok.
Jul 12th 2016

                                         this shit doesnt happen in a microwave
Jul 12th 2016

                               Theres a difference between just spreading a message
Jul 12th 2016
170
                                    ....
Jul 12th 2016
175
                                    the name and the point of the movement go hand in hand
Jul 12th 2016
191
                     You assume that the people it offends are 'win-able'
Jul 12th 2016
151
                          it's like asking Obama to say radical muslim
Jul 12th 2016
155
                          Pretty much. If anything, it's more powerful for someone
Jul 12th 2016
182
                          IMO some are 'winnable' but in other terms
Jul 12th 2016

i dont trust all lives matter people
Jul 12th 2016

the root of the issue is cops killing black people for no reason
Jul 12th 2016
128
Well -- there is a reason.
Jul 12th 2016
162
it's clearly 'Black lives matter TOO'
Jul 12th 2016
137
If there should be any change it should be this:
Jul 12th 2016
152
Naw man, it's willful ignorance to read BLM as "Only BLM" and not
Jul 12th 2016
177
Oh, I know what it is Buddy but that one word would create silence
Jul 12th 2016
190

I tell this to everyone, that when you frame your movement or cause
Jul 12th 2016
192
no. 'Black lives matter' is perfect.
Jul 12th 2016
194
ok
Jul 12th 2016
205
it's better this way. everyone immediately shows what they're about
Jul 12th 2016
195
Yeah, plus the #alllivesmatter crowd is quick to drop #bluelivesmatter
