Am I the only one who see both movements as culpable for the emergence of "post truth" politics?
BLM activists don't have the power to do anything on a large scale other than small acts of violence. This country is completely controlled by the right other than the media and education. All the cops, the firefighters, military, construction workers etc are heavily right leaning and will never get behind or support BS like BLM.
The Alt right has the power to really start some ****, but they don't have a history of violence, so they don't worry me. They're just a large collection of "get off my lawn" people that fear change.
But when an Asian cop shot a black dude by mistake and called his union rep while the man lay dying, this is what happened.
That group of protesters had no gripe with black lives matter. They were protesting because an Asian police officer was actually charged for his crime. It was misguided and distasteful, but they too were decrying racism, believing that the officer was charged and convicted because he was not white.

I think we can start purging academia of leftists sooner than you'd think; media will be a tougher nut to crack. More decentralized and less reliant on taxpayer dollars.

Or because....called his union rep instead of an ambulance.

The are extreme wings of both BLM and Alt Right but the mainstream of each group has valid points. Police shouldn't be allowed to shot people dead for any reason and not even get tried by a jury and the USA govt should care more about it's own citizens than globalism, bad trade deals and porous border are bad for the average American.
Why don't you and your type go diversify Africa, middle east, Israel, Asia etc and get off white people's back?
LOL...Good one... Get off white people's backs. Dude, there's a good chance my tax revenue subsidizes many deplorable lifestyles... And African, the Middle East, or Asian diversity isn't my concern. I'm American...
Whose fault is it that virtually no 'minorities' are white advocating or conservative? Few whites are white positive for that matter, most of them are advocating for the "people of royal color".

Do you need to retreat to a safe space to answer? Man up or nevermind.
