*sigh*
FGM: Anybody who cares about ending prejudice against black people is even more disgusted by pedophiles who want to hijack the cause to push pedophilia than they are by white supremacists!
but isn't this what you are doing? You are using BLM to change the topic to pedophiles, absolutely offering no proof that BLM supports pedophiles. This is a logical fallacy. Because pedophiles are a group hated by all sides with no one daring to offer support for them, it is a POLITICAL TRICK to associate them with another group you wish to malign.
Everybody wants to play detective when it suits a particular narrative. But if you had such evidence why not give it to the police. Do you really think that BLM is a friend to the police? Name one group that wants to take BLM down harder than the police forces of almost any given state, city, and municipality.
So if YOU, who doesn't know BLM, are convinced (perhaps too easily) that they support pedophiles, knowingly so, and to the extent that you have no reservations about sharing such beliefs on a forum frequented by many black people due to its content, I find this troubling. But I'm not surprised either. There's always some element of white supremacy trying to influence black people to turn against our own organizations. But to put the work into influencing black people without utilizing law enforcement... I can't say I can agree with that. There is a concept in American justice, called due process and innocent until proven guilty. We live in a world today where people are deciding that the truth no longer matters and they're just inventing these different narratives in the hopes of spreading judgment.
The Bible has harsh penalties but also says judge not lest ye be judged (by the same logic). The bible also has a law against bearing false witness. The principle behind that law is that you shouldn't spread rumors about people that can cause them to be tried and condemned based on your testimony alone with no means of actually proving it. People can die as a result and those deaths would be on the hands of false witnesses. Man shall not lie with man. That is an abomination according to the bible. But the bible says the same thing about "lying lips".
So we should all endeavor to live with credibility and honor and speak the truth. Because if you don't then how are you any better than the homosexuals you wish to judge? I don't judge anyone because I don't wish to be judged by anyone. I don't mind sharing my opinions but condemnation is something I tend to be conscious of.
After all, how would you feel if someone started a rumor about you and said that your name is what you say to men you're sleeping with? And what if this was said all over the internet in places you weren't around to say otherwise? How long would it take before people started to believe it? There are other ways BLM is trash? Says who? Where are you getting your information? Green frogs? You think George Floyd wasn't choked to death? So you wouldn't mind us doing an experiment where I put my knee on your neck? And then people have the nerve to say "and even if he was"... He was though. You may not want to believe that but the history of police abusing black people goes back to when police were slave catchers. Many black men have their own stories of police abuse, including myself. Every story doesn't end in death and every story doesn't make headlines. Every story isn't even reported. What you are seeing with police in the US is a product of cameras on cell phones. The same things were happening before and police would lie for each other to protect each other. They lie. They lie so that people like you will believe them over the "criminals" they are bringing to "justice".
And they're hoping you don't really have a clue what justice means. They're hoping you will be so distracted by seeing them as good guys vs bad guys that you don't have the understanding of justice to see where a "good guy" abuses his power and becomes the bad guy for the simple fact that he hates the people he has mentally grouped together. Sure, all 800,000 cops or whatever are not the same. How are 40+ million black people in the US the same? And yet many white people believe they are. And many of those are cops. This is simply a reality that black people did not choose. Yet it is one we are forced to live with and one we're forced to survive. Sometimes we don't.
George Floyd was in possession of a counterfeit $20 bill. There is no evidence he made it. But the cops would have you believe that you should never have any sympathy for a black person who has ever been involved in any criminal activity. I've broken laws before. Speeding. Driving with expired tags. Driving with an expired license. I'm like a regular Al Capone. And actually, white people would love me if I was Al Capone. Imagine that. George Floyd did not deserve to die. Period. There are cops who will use anything they can lie about to say "he was dangerous and I was scared of him" to actually use excessive and illegal force to punish, terrorize, or commit murder. And you believe them because you are part of a society and a system that protects those who do harm to black people.
It is what it is. But if you think no one here is willing to defend BLM just because you drop the word pedophile, you are mistaken.
