"black lives matter" is just as racist as "white supremacist"
Black people are justifiably fighting to be equal. White supremacists are fighting to be more than equal. It's not the same at all.
Please post one single shred of US law that mentions the race of an individual as a prerequisite to how that law is administered.
I think we can see the differences in just the names.

Black people feel their lives don't matter in this country, so they created BLM.
Black people feel that they aren't represented in mainstream media, so they created BET.
Black people feel that they are not, economically and socially, where they need to be so they created NAACP.
It's really not a hard concept to understand.
You can disagree with BLM's tactics and their stances, but your post reads like junior high-level logic.
No this poster does not reply with “junior high logic”, he makes a simple but reasonable argument. You don’t like the argument because it’s offensive to the leftist viewpoint and reeks of political incorrectness but it is still logical. The left never tires of using the tactic of insulting the intelligence of conservatives who promote a conservative or traditional position on the issues at hand, especially race and social issues. The leftist feels he is morally superior and has a right to denigrate those who disagree with him.
Insulting the intelligence or education level of those who hold a conservative position does not make the leftist position any more correct. It is just as wrong no matter how “enlightened” y’all paint yourself out to be.
Oh and yes much of the black matters movement also appears to be racist in its nature. Countless videos exists of these groups barging into restaurants, businesses and neighborhoods just to harass people who are white. At least some of the movement is openly racist.
Quote from Black Lives Matter founder sounds extremely racist to me.
“Being white is not human. In fact, white skin is even sub-human. All phenotypes exist within the black family and white people are genetic defects of blacks. […] Melanin affects […] abilities such as intelligence, memory and creativity […] Melanin enables black skin to absorb light and keep it in its memory state, which shows that blackness turns light into knowledge. Melanin communicates directly with cosmic energy. Hence the indigenousness of the people comes from the black. We are the first and strongest of all humans and our genes are the basis of humanity. […] Black people could literally wipe out whites through their dominant genes if we had the power to do so. ”
The statements by this BLM founder are crystal clear, much more so than the alleged “systemic” racism present in the ranks of police officers. Yusra Khogali is sadly not an isolated case – other BLM representatives have also called for violence and retribution. https://freewestmedia.com/2020/07/11...orters-of-blm/

It's a Junior High Argument because the NAACP was created in 1909, a time were most black people were either former slaves or children of former slaves. Nearly all Black people were discriminated openly in society, anywhere from not being allowed to live in nonblack neighborhoods, to not having access to any of the capital of the greater White America. 9 years before the NAACP, since slaves weren't allowed to be taught, 48% of all blacks were illiterate, that being 85% of all blacks who were older than 60. For comparison among Native Whites it was 4.6% and immigrant Whites it was 13%.
HBCU's were formed because black people were generally not allowed to go to other colleges. Their were examples, but by and large if you were black you were barred from going to the mostly White colleges.
BET is more objectionable, but came out of blacks being severely underrepresented in society. BLM is also more questionable but came out of perceived injustice against black citizens by police officers.
The ideas of White Supremacy has it's origins in "The White Man's Burden", were whites should go out and civilize the world by conquering it. It's not even remotely comparable.
