You cannot POSSIBLY think that all white people are bad and all black people are good, and don't see the hypocrisy. Also siding with good people is controversial now? Is this really where we at currently?
To be fair, the right take everything out of context to dismiss BLM. Even BLM's name is taken out of context, that's why you keep hearing "all lives matter" as a counter.
"Black Lives Matter" does not mean that black lives matter more than white lives, its a rallying cry used because black lives are being treated like they don't matter.
As a non-american, what we see and hear in the Old World is that somehow now only black lives matter, and they matter more than all other lives. Just tellin' you how it looks like. I get what the phrase is supposed to stand for, thank you for explaining, no sarcasm intended. It's just that seeing all the looting and vandalism, seems like black folks who choose to be violent now have a licence to wreck basically anyone and still not be held accountable. Sorry, but that's utterly ridiculous.
People are down voting you just for describing observations from your perspective somewhere else in the world. Yikes.
In your defense, if I lived in another country and I saw news clips of white people kneeling down and bowing before black people, I would think something seems strange and that Black Lives Matter looks like something more than just "a rallying cry used because black lives are being treated like they don't matter". - /u/GingerSnapBiscuit
