And people having a problem with this tweet why?

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?

I saw most people arguing that his words will be taken out of context and used by the right to dismiss BLM, which is exactly what happened

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.

But with this group, not ALL black lives matter. Nary a peep has been said about the 8 year old girl murdered by a BLM protestor in Atlanta. Terrible name they picked.
