We're going down a scary path where we're quickly accepting two standards or conduct in this country. I'm really gobsmacked at how fast and how much things are changing and not in a good way.
Here is what they expect from white people that choose to visit the George Floyd memorial spot. It starts with a request to "decenter yourself" ??
When they tell you to "decenter yourself" when visiting their shrine, they are placing George Floyd at the center of your universe as you look to the shrine they have erected, as they claim that to be sacred ground. Claiming god status, while seeking followers who can never line up, eternally off center.
I will look to the true center of the Universe or One Verse and line up with that, plumb true relativity.
Those who follow BLM can seek to place George Floyd between God and man and unleash that spirit all they want.
It is almost like me saying, "one man raped a woman, all men should be viewed as potential racists."
Many of you in this thread sound like enablers. A bad behavior is a bad behavior. Two wrongs don't make one right. There is a big difference between enabling and empowering. This rule is ridiculous.
If a person (white, black, brown, yellow, purple) wanted to pay respect, let him/her be. If he/she behaved poorly, then deal with it then and there. Problem solved.

The "rules" are just someone's idea of free speech. They aren't official rules.

well, like I said earlier, it only hurts his/her cause, whatever that might be.
