Riotous BLM Protesters Suddenly Realize They're All White People
August 5th, 2020
CHARLESTON, SC—A Black Lives Matter protest in South Carolina started to get out of hand, with people screaming at police officers stationed nearby. It threatened to get violent until the protestors paused after noticing they were all white.
“We will not let your system oppress us!” shouted one protestor, to which a black officer responded, “What do you mean by ‘we’?” The protestor said he meant people of color, but it was at that time that he took inventory of the protestors behind him and was unable to find anyone other than white people.
Though initially shaken by the lack of black lives in their Black Lives Matter protest, the protestors soon got back to throwing things and screaming at police officers in their attempt to battle racism. “We still need to fight for black lives,” said one protestor, “even if they want nothing to do with us.”
The group has taken out a want ad hoping to hire a few black people to join their next event.

Oh, Lordy! That was good!
Freaking idiots wearing the latest fashion statement!
I live in the diverse Silicon Valley: the only town that's engaging in BLM marches is the one with the highest percentage of Whites (Los Gatos which is about 80 percent White and the rest are mostly Asian). The other cities here have a much larger minority population (mostly Asian and Hispanics with whites being literally a minority) and after the one BLM protest downtown San Jose right after the George Floyd incident, all the other BLM have completely died down with the exception of Los Gatos having a BLM almost every Saturday and it's the only event that the county allows for you to meet with people outside your household. It's mostly peaceful and masked but still acceptable for hundreds of people to march in close quarters. I am a single Indian-American millennial living alone and when I went to the beach to play volleyball with my friends (one was also Indian-American, one Chinese-American, and one Vietnamese American), my white liberal BLM loving friend who goes on those marches almost every Saturday, slammed us for violating "shelter in place."
Babylon Bee is a satire site. Although, like all good satire it resembles reality enough that people might think it’s true.
Whoops! Why, so it is. They sure took me. Because they wrote an article that sounded EXACTLY like what some of these(real) rioting fruitcakes would do and say.
Its hilarious you read satire sites and take it for gospel.
As for the protests and riots, they have not been about BLM for some time now. Its about bored school kids venting out in the streets.
The OP and the poster who first responded don't come across as people who would appreciate subtle satire...
