Captain obvious here but:
Instagram, Twitter and the rest of social media are rife with influencers and wannabe influencers as well as actual Hollywood celebs posting the black fist (that is now so familiar) speaking for the poor disenfranchised black. And if you're black don't you dare have any opinion that is not on the left side of the political spectrum.
I've been called a "literal Nazi" ("racist" does not have the same bite anymore since it's so overused) so many times. And when I reveal what I am then I'm an uncle Tom, a coon and so on and so forth. I am not on the political right and I am not left, I just am. I like calling out bullshit when I see it.
Motherfuckers and bitches I went to school with (from primary to uni) who were generally stuckup, cunty and definitely thought a certain away about my blackass are now at the forefront of black lives matter. Maybe it's cynicism, but no way is there that many sheltered preppy college white girls who truly and altruistically give a flying fuck about the lives of black people. And then the celebs. They probably say the n-word willy-nilly at home. It reeks of fakeness and a holier than thou attitude.
It seems that the left--in their ravenous search for anything to feed their savior complex--have latched on to this movement. It seems to me that they have to stay mad in order for them to feel like they're alive and making a difference in society. I try to stay away from neologisms like "virtue signaling" and "social justice warriors" etc. But they really do describe what's going on here.
What's next after BLM? LGBQT has been coopted by the left already. In the race to "outwoke" each other, they're now cannibalizing each other, canceling each other.
Mirror mirror on the wall, who's the wokest of them all?
Rebels without a cause.
I've been banned on many subs and gotten a warning from admins just for questioning these flimsy motives and ideologies that the liberal left harbor.
