Another view of what BLM means and seeks

[BackAgain]

I hesitate a moment to post this. Yeah, it is in Zone 1. But even though the author of the piece I am linking and addressing is a black man, I suspect that commentary about this topic from a white man like me will he received poorly by some. Nevertheless, I think this view merits a little bit of attention. It’s not new. But it is interesting in several fronts and on a couple of levels:

Black Lives Matter’s real agenda

Unless you have been “off the grid” for a while, you have heard a lot in the news about Black Lives Matter. This “movement” has gotten a lot of press and some notable praise from celebrities and politicians, including positive mentions from President Obama. But I suspect that most people...

I see the name of “black lives matter” as inherently problematical. I mean, of course Black Lives Matter. But that doesn’t mean other lives don’t. And any commentary about ALL lives matter is often attacked as beside the point. I don’t think it is beside the point.

However, BLM isn’t merely asserting the obvious (that Black Lives of course matter). It is also the name of a basically Marxist oriented interest group. It seeks to change our society not merely in terms of race as the name might suggest. But in all manner of radical ways. And it’s focus (as the author of the piece I’ve linked has suggested) seems to trivialize the lives of black men as fathers.

I’m wondering who all thinks the author of the linked article is right (and how so?) and who believes he is wrong or misguided (and why and how?) and how his views correspond to reality?

Black Lives Matter was a carefully designed slur implying that anyone who didn't cow tow to that organization's agenda thinks that Black lives are worthless. Quite an insult to Civil War veterans and their progeny.

He's absolutely right but he only touched the surface of problems with this racial grifter organization.
It seeks to destroy Christian heritage & replace it with a queer-centric society of twinks, trannies & multi-genders.
Fathers only have worth if they have a mental illness/sexual deviancy of some kind.
It is founded by admitted Marxists with the collectivist theme throughout.
It demands people agree with their distorted view of the world as they perceive it through a colored prism.
It is also anti-white in that it demonizes strong moral values & traditional families as racist constructs while seeking to eliminate it from culture.

That's why I have always said loudly & proudly: FBLM

BLM-Bad

White Lives Matter

“White Lives Matter” is both a white supremacist slogan adopted after the rise of the Black Lives Matter movement as well as a loose movement of white supremacists who hold events to popularize the phrase.

Wrong. You really need to work on that white fragility.

No they aren't.

My opinion of Black Lives Matter has remained quite consistent from the beginning.

It is an organization that seeks to intimidate the populace into supporting black criminality and remove all notions of personal responsibility when it comes to the behavior of black people. It uses terrorist tactics to achieve these goals and should be listed as a terrorist organization by any government worth its salt

Right... do you just say anything that pops up in your feelings, regardless of actual truth or facts?
Like I've told you before, you're beliefs are either ignorant or stupid.
Take your pick

"Fisher Ames is considered by many to be the author of the 1st Amendment. As our Founding Fathers were debating the drafting of the Bill of Rights, he is the Congressman who came up with the language of the 1st Amendment, so logic dictates that if anyone understood what the words meant, it would be him. (Remember that, you'll see why in a minute). After the Constitution was ratified, some public schools started using more and more books to teach the children, in addition to the Bible. While the Bible was continuing to be taught in the public schools, a trend was developing of introducing more and more secular books into the classroom. One of the Founding Fathers who expressed concern over this trend was.....you guessed it, Fisher Ames who stated: “...we have a dangerous trend beginning to take place in our education....We've become accustomed of late to putting little books in the hands of children containing fables with moral lessons. We are spending less time in the classroom on the Bible, which should be the principle text in our schools.""

Evidence for America's Christian Heritage

In the debate over the so-called “separation of Church and State” versus America as a Christian nation, we have to look at our Founding Fathers and the facts of history to see the truth about America's Christian heritage. While it is certainly true that our Founding Fathers did not intend for...

Every one of the thirteen colonies had an official Christian religion.

No they aren't.

Unless you're a white supremacist.

How would you know what a white supremacist is?

How would YOU know about "white fragility?"

I'm not worried about Black Lives Matter, I'm worried about White Lives Matter. White Lives Matter wants to eradicate the Black family unit off the face of the planet, whether socially, economically, emotionally, physically, etc, and has been trying for the past 500 years.

You should limit yourself to making true statements, instead.
