Black Lives Matter VS. Shaun King

[Mr Rager]

This is pathetic. Twitter Activism

 

[No1]

This is why BLM is wack. There are no strong or unifying voices. Just these weak dudes and outraged women more concerned with the cattiness that social media inevitably generates.

I've never been one to say we need another Malcolm or MLK or whatever. But the more important point is that you need alpha personalities to make shyt work. That's not just for black shyt btw. It's why dominant personalities keep political organizations, corporations, sports teams, etc in line. Leaders lead. They don't sit around tweeting all day about perceived slights.

This is pure ignorance. None of those people are even officially a part of BLM and only two of them are activists. People always love to talk about what people should do while not doing anything and having no idea what other people are doing. Twitter is how they bring attention to themselves, but sit there and act like they weren't on the ground in Ferguson. Sit there and act like they haven't had meetings with presidential candidates to the point where a BLM is one of the heads of Sander's campaign. Sit there and pretend like they did not catch the ear of stars and get them to donate to these causes. And when you're done pretending, tell me what you have done lately and how it compares to these people.

As far as I'm concerned, their work with Campaign Zero and their new movement to go at police union contracts is enough in and of itself to vindicate them. They had one public spat, big deal.

But you didn't even post the best tweet

Campaign Zero is the only actionable policy you mentioned, and even that isn't really a part of BLM. In fact some BLM activists are upset over that campaign as well as DeRay's involvement. I actually prefer DeRay over many BLM folks due to this - he has policy ideas. The issue is now translating that into action. Lots of these activists don't get that top down change doesn't work. You gotta focus on the state and local sector. Sanders isn't going to save you, neither is Hillary. These same people will be crying in 2020 that President Hillary didn't do anything for them. She can't. Which is why you go after local representatives. The Tea Party understands that, why doesn't BLM?

Which is my problem. You have all these splinter groups and chapters working independently and catching feelings over shyt.

In terms of what I've done? I donate to organizations I believe are legit. I volunteer and donate money to my local Big Brothers Big Sisters program. I substitute teach at an inner city school that brings in professionals to teach children what they do (for instance, this program might bring in a radiologist to show kids what they do, give them education advice on how to get into the profession, etc).

I'm not going to ask what you have done. Based on your posts I'm going to assume you do your share as well. I respect you as a poster, I just disagree on BLM. Not a fan of the group breh, at all.

A Cac and a sodomite are leading the black lives matter movement

 

[I_Got_Da_Burna]

I find it hilarious that the "leaders" of the BLM movement are a bunch of trolls

that netta chick is a troll, and deray is a fruitcake. no surprise at all the fukkery that's hapening

 

[DrX]

all this shyt is fukkkery all around

 

[Mr Rager]

Seems like anyone with a Twitter app can call themselves an "activist" these days. Hopefully this BLM trash fades away and an actual movement with leadership and substance springs up. I can only pray though

 

[scarlxrd]

Wow, it's imploding.

Seems like anyone with a Twitter app can call themselves an "activist" these days.

That's why BLM is so divisive. It's a hashtag movement like anonymous since there's no leader to it, makes it work ultimately. I love it and hate it in the same breath.

@ Deray being an activist, dude is one of the biggest phonies known to man, clown was on his phone tweeting in Ferguson while the real activists were getting gas bombed and organizing. He just took all the credit for it. fukk the whole black lives matter crew, a bunch of suburban lames who want to speak for the inner city youth that they wouldn't want to be around unless there is a bunch of cameras and press.

 

[keond]

Who are these people?

And what's up with this cac trying to instigate shyt?

Who is this? Vlade Divac Jr?

Deray is a clown, he got slapped up by a known Ferguson resident for taking their credit.
