No lives matter

Everything alive deserves to live and prosper. Everything that can feel deserves to feel good. From the best of us to the worst of us, that truth is self evident.

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?

BLM is a racist group comprised exclusively of racists and/or morons. The only houses burning are the ones they set on fire with their "mostly peaceful" protests.

No not at all. That comic doesn't reflect anyone i've ever seen, heard, engaged with on any level, anything. Frankly that's offensive. The comic depicts an exagerrated selfish ignorant bastard. Sole purpose of that comic is to fire up the lefties.

Where is the fundamental misunderstanding? I understand that alot of black people feel margainalized, subjugated and abused. I was born in the US, live in PA. Years ago when BLM popped up i read about the movement. That made sense then. This shit in 2020 is just Liberal sanctioned anarchy.

So 2 things are possible then. Either BLM picked a really bad name, or they intend to direct your thoughts and public policy. (As they are currently doing, quite overtly)

If black lives matter doesn't fall into the category of all lives matter, then BLM is placing themselves a step higher on the ladder of importance. If told that using any phrase regarding human lives, other than BLM is racism, they are deciding on their own what speech is allowed in the USA. It's a slippery slope from "this otherwise innocuous phrase is racist" to, "we'll throw you in the gulag for expressing dissent."

I miss the OG black panthers. Those cats made their agenda crystal clear.

Is this one of them things like where 'abolish the police' really means 'police reform' but a lot of people aren't smart enough to understand it, like Rick and Morty?

Bacteria is alive, so is a virus

covid19 requires human hosts, does it deserve to live?

What about a morbol fly or a mosquito ?

How about a leech?

Rabies?

if you ask Nick Cannon and Dwayne Wade, then yeah they'd say something like this. If you ask most others, then it's about black lives matter TOO and not MORE.


also, anyone going to Disney World? heard they're open.

Yeah from a natural standpoint, mother nature/god/universe/flying spaghetti monster/M theory/evolution/pick one has brought these organisms to exist as what we would call "life" so by that school of thought, they earned it.

a virus isn't exactly alive by the terms with which we would usually define life. its organic for sure, very very different from bacteria though.

Sure theres living things that suck for humans, that just sucks for us. The spectrum of life is vastly diverse. We humans do take great measures to place or remove other forms of life, nature gave us the ability to do so. So we do. We plant gardens, we kill weeds, we disinfect toilets, we raise animals on massive factory farms etc.

This concept however, applied to a human civil rights debate is abhorrent.
