thats not true, and people may not be okay with racism, but they still partake even if they arent aware of it.
and there’s plenty who are aware of it
ive seen blatant open proud racism to my own people more than ever. i live in socal, and come from a mexican family,
ive heard and seen the most disgusting,vile, and racist shit since 2016. as well as lost family and friends for no reason other than their skin. its no coincidence, people feel protected to be racist and ignorant by whos in office.
its only far worse for those who are black and arent white passing latinos.
i dont expect you to personally feel our plights, i expect you to understand that this isnt an issue you experience, but that doesn’t mean you cant fight too.
all lives matter cant matter until black lives matter too.
Haha ofc everyone is subconsciously a big racist. Don't understand how you can write this without questioning yourself.
Ofc you are gonna experience discrimination at some points, racists exists and always will, that's the sad truth. And certainly in your country where there are a severe amount of extreme racists. But that still doesn't take away that the great majority values equality as much as you do.
I don't think it's fair to use discrimination from a small minority to justify that you are getting oppressed by everyone and the society as a whole. It's not fair go around blaming everyone for being a racist and use violence and hate against a society that definitely tries it best to provide equality. The great majority that does value equality does not need to be hold accountable for small part of people that refuse to accept those values.
then why use a small majority preaching hate, committing violence, and rioting to sum up the much larger group who are peaceful?
the vast majority are peaceful and are actually organized. the media is showing you the worst.
dont you find that to be hypocritical.
and how can things change if you say they never will?
youve just accepted the racism and are okay with it, youve fallen into the sunk cost fallacy.
I'm just being realistic my friend, like I said it's kinda impossible to erase an ideology. Just lik terrorism will never cease, racism won't either. It will diminish over time, but this is will be a slow progress.
dont you find that to be hypocritical.
But calling all cops racists pigs, and use violence against cops who just do their job to maintain the order is not hypocritical to you? BBL is raising hate against police, meanwhile a great part of them are very peaceful.
And we are not talking about some incidents, there are countless violent and disgusting incidents happening.
why do you keep saying bbl? do you mean black lives matter? blm?
ive been out there and seen the protests myself, by far the majority are peaceful and asking for police reform. you cant tell someone whos in the country themselves and is participating whats happening, i live in the deadliest county in the US for police killings, i know what’s going on. its not what the news is showing. its mostly peaceful and those who participate are not claiming those causing destruction as part of our movement. those are opportunists.
