Looking back, how STUPID was the reaction to George Floyd? Seriously everything about it was stupid. From the riots/protests, to the black squares, to the virtue signaling, anti-cop narrative, the "woke culture" blowing up, and even Trump holding up a bible for a photo op. Everything about it was stupid. The whole thing.

Nothing good came out of it. These are the "accomplishments" over the last year (and I use the term "accomplishments" very loosely):

- A syrup bottle (Aunt Jemima) getting "cancelled"
- Statues being torn down and vandalized
- "Lady Antebellum" and "The Dixie Chicks" get woke and rename themselves "Lady A" and "The Chicks."
- Police budget slashed in multiple cities resulting in the explosion of crime.
- Seattle having one of its neighborhoods turned into an "autonomous zone" and running out the Police Department.
- Portland having riots and fires on a regular basis.
- The name "Master Bedroom" and "Master Bathroom" banned by some real estate offices.
- Anti-Police narrative from the left

Also, remember those articles encouraging us to go out of our way to give money to black owned businesses? LOL. I will spend my money regardless of race, if I like the business, I will go to it. Color makes no difference to me.

Oh...and the hypocrisy of lockdowners saying “look at these idiots not social distancing and having a bbq gathering, don’t they know there’s a pandemic?” To supporting the protests/riots “Oh, it’s fine to not social distance when it’s about racial justice!”

It’s mental illness. The American mind has been infected with a parasite. Everything you’ve listed are symptoms of a growing cancer. No healthy society elects a head of state who grants interviews to Cardi B and exalts George Floyd.

I recommend that people check out James Lindsay’s New Discourses website. James is brilliant and has devoted his life to trying to understand how stupid and harmful the Left have become.

Let’s not forget the disclaimers added before classic films such as Gone With the Wind, Peter Pan, Dumbo, and several others to appease the BLM terrorists and their worthless demands.

The virtue signaling of Piglosi and the rest of the dumbs kneeling in the halls of Congress to celebrate the death of a worthless drug addled criminal who got his just desserts.

And all the new films and TV shows featuring black knights, and noblemen, and princes in European period pieces. As if Europe was always multiracial.

Stupid?? Are you kidding?

The Marxists at BLM Inc cashed in big time.

Why wouldn't they do it again?

I disagree, it accomplished one major task - the election of Biden.

I called it last summer, those kids who protested in the summer are going to come out in droves to vote... and they are surely not voting for Trump. The protest was like the pre-season for the 2020 election - they bonded, they organized, they rallied each other to vote on election.

I firmly believe Biden wouldn't have won without 1) Trump mishandling the pandemic and 2) the summer protest that mobilized a generation of voters who otherwise wouldn't have voted.

They’re entitled free stuff folks so they’re certainly going to vote for Sleepy Joe. Plus they can continue to loot, steal, cause violence, etc..., especially when the police get defunded
