    I notice it dropped off quickly when they stopped setting precincts and courthouses on fire. Almost like having footage of police brutality constantly on cable news channels was good for support or something and that they stopped airing it as soon as that stopped happening.

    I think most people are smart enough to figure out that if people are setting police stations on fire in a popular uprising maybe there's a reason that's happening and that the only ones condemning them were either Nazis dogwhistling all over the place and moderates more concerned with "order" than actual justice.

        I get what you mean but my point was it's important to try always to present people with a materialist perspective to combat reactionary bullshit.

    Yes? Still a noble idea. We just need to find a way to keep that rage and fervor going. BLM isn’t useless idpol if that’s what this thread is trying to imply
