Sign from Black Lives Matter event tonight (x-post /r/huntsvillealabama)

...Writes a bunch of stuff attacking the BLM movement... Doesn't understand why he is attacked for saying all lives matter. In response to a reply EXPLAINING the original phrase does not exclude all lives matter....

Mate if you don't realise you are undermining a justified social movement with your behaviour, then you are super ignorant.

At best you are one of those super out of touch assholes who doesnt want "the problems of the riff raff" interfering with his croquet match.

At worst you are possibly actively racist and trying to undermine the movement, because actually you don't very much like the idea of black people being treated as equals.

Shit man, if we went back to 1912 london and we had suffaragettes chaining themselves to railings, setting fire to postboxes, and even setting bombs because they had been trying for fucking DECADES to try and be heard and get women the vote.. Would you be implying they were irresponsible in their actions because of taking the emergency services from their duties? Would you be saying that such things would never sway anyone to their side?

Now think about the kind of things BLM are asking for, and how fucking upset they are.

Now think about the kind of person you have to be to dismiss them all as fucking tantrum having selfish toddlers who you pretend are actually black supremicists....

Fuck man, you need to decide whether you are actually a racist pure and simple, or whether you are just an arrogant entitled asshole who doesn't want to live in the real world where fairness is NOT actually a thing, and resents anything that breaks his middle class bubble.

Once you figure that out, try real hard to become a better person yeah?
