BLM literally has black only meetings that white people are not allowed to attend. Segregation is their goal with black people coming out on top.
Just like feminists have been ruined by feminazis, blm has been ruined by extreme blmers

Dustin1280 posted...BLM literally has black only meetings that white people are not allowed to attend. Segregation is their goal with black people coming out on top. I think that closing off their meetings to other races is a foolish move because it alienates potential allies for us. This is coming from my experience as a volunteer in the Vietnamese community and being Black. If they had closed out meetings at my college for only Vietnamese people, i never would've bothered to learn more or understand their culture. I think they could've picked a better name. People immediately attack the name and you have to waste time explaining that the name isn't saying "Black lives only matter" but it's more like saying "Black lives matter too." A name like "Enough is Enough" as suggested by other activists would've been wiser and more inclusive. They need to also sever ties with radical activists. Disgusting people like Yusra Khogali (Co-founder of BLM Toronto) have no business representing the community. She's a bigot and has literally referred to white skin as sub-human. |

Also, it's designed to make it look like you're saying black lives don't matter if you speak out against them in any way. It's an easy way to shut down opposition without actually engaging in a dialogue; just like labeling anyone who disagrees with you as "racist","Nazi," or "-phobic." That's what I was talking about when I mentioned the divisiveness. |

You just see what you want to see, don't you? The part in bold is rude.southcoast09Dustin1280 posted...Then do you support an organization (BLM) that holds black only meetings? If so why?
BLM's not an organization, that's the problem... As usual, folks are generalizing an entire population based on the actions of a small group. Every single one of you *has to* stop doing this. Your teachers taught you this was wrong to do when you were in school, or at least they tried to.
Here are some things it isn't right to do:
- It's not right to assume all Muslims are dangerous because a few of them are radicals.
- It's not right to assume all Trump supporters are racist because a few of them are Neo Nazis.
- It's not right to assume all BLM hate white people because a few of them have dumb attendance policies.

I agree with that, but it's hard to do when the media picks and chooses certain groups to side with.
The Charlottesville thing lumped every protestor from the right in with the Neo-Nazis, then blamed them all for the one person who rammed a car into a crowd. News and social media, along with CE, seemed to think it was okay to generalize in that circumstance, but when BLM or Muslims commit violence, it's just an isolated incident.
Still can't f***ing believe there was backlash over Trump calling out "many sides" for violence.Lmao at Kineth trying to actually sit here and say he's intellectually superior while throwing the race card at people who dislike blm

it's not worth getting your account suspended for posting the opposite of what you "think" so you can call it "trolling"You feast on red herring because it is your birthright.I think the principles for fighting for racial equality and law enforcement accountability are noble causes. And black Americans certainly suffer from these issues disproportionately.
Unfortunately, it seems many groups of BLM have the same problems demonstrating their cause that MRAs do. When they finally have a current issue worth blowing the whistle on, up comes the extremists to grab the mic and steer the collective voice into a worthless blame game that looks ugly on TV...- Boards

But you've posted in literally every BLM topic I've ever clicked on, no matter the context. I was pretty much guaranteed to find you in here, indulging in your obsessionI dont want a sig!No. I think its a group that arose from a legitimate problem in this country. But they don't really have any concrete goals other than disruption for the same of attention as far as I can tell.

BLM leaders and members have always condemned violence of any kind, so you really can't pin any murders or assaults against them.
Now, as for property destruction, if BLM is such a violent, extremist group, shouldn't the dozens of cities that have official BLM chapters have in increase in property damage? You only picked the cities with massive protests from BLM and other groups, where there's been a high-profile killing. And you think BLM is responsible for all that property damage? Individuals riot. Some random guy is the one breaking stuff, it's not a coordinated attack by BLM members. Again, BLM doesn't advocate violence or destruction by any means.ThanksUglyGod posted...The Admiral posted...

The protest wasn't even organized by BLM. It was organized by a group called NGAN (the Next Generation Action Network) https://www.dallasnews.com/news/dallas-ambush/2016/07/08/organizers-deadly-rally-say-devastated-police-died.
And yes, the shooter was not affiliated with any of the groups and felt they weren't radical enough. It's hilarious how a soundbyte is supposed to say what the story is, but that soundbyte has literally nothing of substance in it and is just a fabricated story to get people like Rox and Admiral parroting their notions about BLM. Because, you know a radical black person speaks for all black people or the entirety or the organization, but a radical white person is just an isolated incident with no bearing on anyone else. They both should be considered the latter, but people who have no idea what the goal or the message is will only see what they look to see.
It's why those types latch to the idea of black protests being full of criminals and unruly people. That's just an echo of their thoughts on black people.If you're not looking for any honest discussion, agreement, meeting halfway or middle ground, don't bother arguing with me.

I don't have to pretend because I didn't blame the entire right for that.If you're not looking for any honest discussion, agreement, meeting halfway or middle ground, don't bother arguing with me. Selfish narcissists need not apply.I also don't necessarily support some of their demands. Like when they last year demanded retroactive student loan forgiveness for all Blacks, as well as free college for all Blacks (including undocumented residents and the incarcerated).
Once again as a Black person who works with the Vietnamese community, and interacts with other Asian communities, I've come to learn about the other challenges faced by other communities, and how America has hurt other communities in the past. So when I read demands like that, my mind went to "But what about these communities too?" If we're going that route of free college / retroactive loan forgiveness (not that I even agree with that idea) then I'd say we should aim for it for everyone.
Like I'd imagine the reason why we had so much success with the Civil Rights movement is because the end result benefitted everyone. Everyone gained the right to fair housing and easier voting rights. That's something that's easier to rally behind.
Note: The likely made these demands as negotiation tactic. The idea that you ask for a lot and you get a little. But the "little" is what you were aiming for. However, once again I feel the idea is alienating out allies.
It gives the impression of what Dave Chappelle criticized BLM for, "When did it become just caring about ourselves and not caring about other people?"Kineth posted......Because, you know a radical black person speaks for all black people or the entirety or the organization, but a radical white person is just an isolated incident with no bearing on anyone else.
