It's a non-starter and it's irrational.
This looks like a good place to put my bi-monthly reminder that this culture war has little to do with black people and is an internecine struggle between two white factions with the leftist faction using blacks and other minorities as shock troops against the non leftist faction.

First off you're talking about Chicago which may be representative of large democrat dominated cities but not necessarily the country at large, and you don't really know how much support it has because you don't know who is just going along with it to keep from being fired.

Pretty soon you will be declared mentally ill if you don’t agree, and they are working on drugs to “cure” racism.

Next your (all?) children will be raised by the state to root out racism in the next generation. I have seen articles and studies saying racism begins in infants, this will be used as justification.

I hope PETA gets all upset about this, and starts a war with BLM.

That is seriously a waste of a poor pig's life. I doubt BLM even know how to slaughter humanely.

Who owners of said hospital? Is private or govt? Either way, they, on purpose, only hired certain people. This was planned in advance for the day this movement appear. Only way everyone in one building can be down for exact same movement.

They want to kill each other. If Black Lives Mattered to Black Lives Matter, they'd do something about the rising levels of black-on-black violence.

Bingo

They’re more interested in playing the martyr and getting free stuff than they are about saving each others lives.

That seems like a more accurate high level view of the big picture. The closer you are to the ground and details of specifics, the more it doesn't make sense, you start panning out and seeing how things work together it makes a lot more sense.

This should be made a hate crime. Let me drop a dead monkey in a casket full of bananas at the NAACP and see what happens. I am not sure what the charge should be it it is close to terroristic threats.
