@Sparky:
you see nothing wrong with this statement?
In affirming that Black Lives Matter, we need not qualify our position
That is a religious creed and the fact they feel they don't need to qualify their position just tells you they have nothing qualitative about it. You just HAVE to accept their position or you are labeled a racist. And you get absolution for being a racist by invoking their creeds.
The BLM movement is a search for the religious and moral void left in secular education and society, it is a religion in itself where you get your morality back by saying the words.
What it does do is give primarily white people in power influence in the black community. They recognize that they have no standing to talk about black issues and poverty so they invented a reason to become part of the black community and be able to talk about black people and their plights. It is taking away the voices of reason within the black community and transferring that power to white, rich, Hollywood liberals that now, by invoking the creeds, get a say in the issues.
