Anyone who kneels deserves respect from no one.

I don’t really need the kneeling, personally, but if white America gave a sincere and genuine apology for their mistreatment of black people and if they actually worked to make some kind of amends for it, that would be a nice gesture.

But expecting such humanity and decency from a lot of white people may as well be like expecting an intellectual conversation from a dog.

Should black tribes that have been fleeced and destroyed by other black tribes in Africa be dressed down.

Where do we draw the line here??

Apples and oranges. And we are talking about them right now.

Never wanting to be outdone, I wonder how Euro progressives are going to up the ante on virtue signalling?

They had skin in the slave trade game.

Hopefully it's the same illness so they can be closer together and sing kumbaya.
Personally, it's not mental illness. This is all staged propaganda bs. It's all it is. All a bunch of crisis actors.

I wonder who would kneel to whom given an honest accounting of inter-racial crime statistics in any given city.

We could make grievance shrines, with pictures, and compare. Kneeling pads at the ready.

I really hope this post doesn't get removed.
It needs to stay so people will know exactly who you are.

13 minorities voted yes.

207 people voted no, who are sick of the decades long racial agitation and facilitated-crime at the hands of those minorities.

If White people and mainly white liberals want to kneel for George Floyd, they can kneel for him. But how does kneeling expunge someone from being racist? What I noticed is this. Their is a codependent relationship between white liberals and black academics/thought leaders. White liberals need black thought leaders to feel good, feel rightcious, and be free from the sin of racsim, while black academics and black thought leaders get a natural high by telling white people mainly white liberals what to do and how to be and live. It is a very cringy system and its almost like an archaic version of an organized religion.
