wow
and the sad part is they'll get away with it because most people especially the trendhoppers/flux activists/actorvists on social media never gave a fukk in the first place. for most of the people screaming that shyt, it was all about those likes on social media and feeding their egos thinking they were helping or making a change though there was nothing to show. sad shyt all around. so basically we are way worse than we were before and these agents are still out here. what's disgusting is seeing people defend shaun king's bytch ass.

I called this long ago. Friend of mine tried to join a Texas chapter of BLM to do some good, only to find out they weren't actually doing jack shyt. What we saw was a collection of unprepared, BROKE people find a way to monetize the very "black bodies" they sit on twitter hand wringing over 24/7.
BLM was never an inward movement about mobility or expansion. It was always focused on white people. Begging white people for attention or validation, begging white people to stop killing black people, etc. That's not a sustainable message because it doesn't work towards anything. White supremacy isn't going anywhere. The Black Panthers spent time focusing on white people...but the vast majority of their focus was on the black community. Security, ambulance service, breakfast programs for school children, music, etc.
What is BLM doing to support black businesses, set up free health clinics for the poor, or urban farming, or any other issue that actually helps black people beyond complaining that some movie doesn't have enough black people in it.

Yikes.
I had to finally unfollow DragonflyJonez. Dude is a blavity black male feminist at this point.
What did the tweet say? It's deleted.
I've been peeped that about him years ago. He's cliqued up with that circle of black entertainment/#activists on Twitter.
The tweet was from a black female calling out a few black male feminist blavity black panderders about the fact they're obviously pandering to get a blue check. DragonflyJonez was 1 of the dudes she mentioned.
#BLM literally fukked up the way I view black people in America...like Deray and Netta changed me, profound.
I still remember staying up, watching the protests get to the curfew and seeing shyt pop off.
The riot gear, tear gas....in 2016, in America. Got dammit.
They really sold alllllllll the way out. Never was for black people. And they easily piveted to hating "straight black men" and blaming us for every fukking thing.
They really silent about the Liam Nesson thing.
