However sometimes i get the impression that some groups fighting for equal rights are not seeking equality, they are seeking supremacy.
When they stand in the streets and protest, they are exercising their rights and bringing attention to real problems in the nation/world.
When they destroy property and kill people, they are waging war!!
I'm a Korean guy IRL. So maybe the white experience/black experience is lost on me. I've heard "asian C word" thrown at me a few times in my life, its sort of a, huh? thing. Asians in general don't seem to be bothered by racism directed at them. I haven't been offended... and i do get offended easily. I'll chew your face off for much lesser offenses than racism.
But when I read/hear that saying "all lives matter" makes you a racist, That to me screams that BLM is seeking Supremacy.

It doesn't necessarily make you a racist, it just implies you fundamentally misunderstand what black lives matter means.
If a house in your neighborhood is on fire and someone says "We need to save that house" and you respond "Every house deserves to not be on fire" that doesn't make you an arson but it also doesn't do anything to move the issue. The house is still on fire.
Do pictures help?
