    The fly in the ointment are the black Americans who are now starting to speak out against Black Lives Matter.

    Apologies if it looked like I was calling you out, I understand it’s a very strange situation.

    They secluded him behind a wall and looked around to see if anyone was watching so they can beat him... this is why we protest from r/PublicFreakout



    Another fine example of why these protests are happening. Officers detain someone behind a wall, check to see if anyone is witnessing it and then assault the ever-living shit out of them.

    What are we looking at here, is that 3 white cops? And who is on the ground?

    Are you saying an Afro Caribbean American life is worth more than an indigenous native American's life ?
    Black Lives Matter has an implicit “too” at the end

    I think Billie Eilish addressed all lives matter better than I could.

    Maybe you pair aren’t aware “all lives matter” was set up in response to black lives matter.

    Black people aren’t saying your lives don’t matter.
    She is an amazing person. Very articulate and talented

    I wonder how many posters on here would be calling Emily Pankhurst a silly slag and won’t someone think of the poor horse during the suffragettes movement.

    How many would be saying you’re saying votes for women but what about votes for men.

    How many would be saying during the Chartists movement would be saying the civil unrest was disgusting and they only wanted a revolution.

    Do people not learn from history? Would you not like to be on the right side of it?

    Tbf I think some of the language I used set me up for it. I think we all tend to get a bit tribal about anything political nowadays. I like to consider myself a moderate, then I look back at what I write and I wonder 😂

    Yep exactly it’s human nature and people need to educate themselves and try and fight against it.

    It’s an extreme example but if we were in Nazi germany a huge percent of us would be ignoring the Jews being taken to auschwitz, a percent would be reluctantly in the SS and a very small percentage would be sharing Hitler’s propaganda with glee saying how anyone believing anything else was a sheep being taken in by the mainstream media or something.

    Very informative, William Treseder should give that a watch.

    84% of white murders are committed by white people but no one calls them white on white murders.

    Adz is not adverse to a little bit of racist language himself mind.

    Maybe he needs some educating too.

    Where did I even support Pakistan? And you don’t know about my life so who are you to tell me where to go? You don’t know if I would even have a better life in Pakistan. You don’t know my ethnicity etc that would impact my life there. So I repeat... who are you to tell me where to go?

    Yeah well, we all say things we regret. Do you regret using the term "coconut" and on another forum "choc ice"? Or is it ok for you to use racist language but not me?

    I admit using 'coconut' was OTT and wrong and I don't remember using 'choc ice' but you were justifying telling me to go to Pakistan only a few minutes ago!
