On Black Lives Matter

How do you reduce the effectiveness of a movement or a thought without making it obvious that you're doing so? Use every media outlet you possibly can to portray everything about this movement in the most negative way you can, so that to support it is equivocated with insanity, savagery, and ignorance. Invite only 1 dimension of this movement to be seen, so it is easier to attack. Create the largest separation between supporters and opponents as you possibly can, so that compromise is not a valid option. I mean, shit, I want you to think about this for just a second. Don't jump to conclusions so quickly because that conclusion is apparently in agreement with your world view. Just give this a few minutes of thought. If you believe that the media is so powerful in influencing Hilary's popularity, if you believe that her position was only reached by manipulation of media, how the -blam!- are you not going to question the media's influence on situations like BLM? How? How are you going to tell me, that one opinion is a completely deceitful production of the media, but the other is a valid outlook on reality? Big Brother is watching, and you all look like fools to be spun by the "this is not propaganda" propaganda. The easiest way to control the ignorant and paranoid.

  • I won't deny that racism exists. The question is what can we do about it? Retrain the police? Yeah it would probably help but if we extend training times for police when not a whole lot of people go into the profession in the first place, this will probably lead to less cops which would equal more crime in the long run. Give black people immunity? This has actually been proposed and I shouldn't even need to explain why this is insane. Disarm the Police? While this would solve the problem, it would create a new one, more armed criminal acts. Police would never be able to stop an armed suspect. Look at videos of cops in the UK, it takes 50 people to take down 1 guy with a machete, that's -blam!-in sad and pathetic. Putting body cams on police? This is probably the only valid solution I've heard so far. But at the end of the day, shootings would still happen and the media would still paint the cop as a piece of shit. So in short there's no easy solution and therefore it will just continue to happen. Why because at the end of the day, it's not our problem. Stallcall has the actual solution (broken families, zero discipline and lack of respect for authority,) but nobody wants to take responsibility so I guess these shootings will continue
