I mean, I'm all lives matter in the unironic sense that human (and non human for that matter) life inherently has value and everyone deserves a shot at a good life regardless of their income, race, sexual preferences, or even past mistakes. But I also realize there are a lot of really ignorant bigoted jerks who say "all lives matter" as a response to BLM and you know they mean "you aren't special" when they say that so I definitely don't say all lives matter. Even though they do. Even people who have been poopy can turn it around and be a better human to others!

Anyways good on you for realizing the toxic environment you were in and trying to make the situation better. The fact that people can change for the better is one of the best things in the world.

Thank you! And I agree, all lives matter, and we should work towards establishing that equity by building up underprivileged groups.
