Starting a race war is now juicier for the politicians and mainstream media.

so you think the protests are fake?
you don’t believe there’s racial injustice in this country??

Nah its not a either/or situation.
The George Floyd situation is a tragedy. One that happens every day unfortunately whch is why all of this si finally coming to a head.
However, now that this si the new juicy news story that's getting news ratings, suddenly coronavirus isnt gonna wipe out the world like the media had you believe up until last week.
You always follow the money and there's a lot more money to be made off BLM and the exploiting racial tension in the US.
You're a smart dude. I'm sure you can see there is more than meets the eye in all of this. Fear & emotion = $$$

i understand what you’re insinuating
i guess my question is whether you believe systemic racism and white supremacy is as huge an issue as the media is making it out to be or whether you think the extent of it is being overblown.

perhaps, but all the regulations are mostly still there and don't seem to be leaving anytime soon. You still can't even so much as go see a Little League baseball game in most places around the country and most businesses are either closed or operating with at 50% capacity with two hands tied behind their back--indefinitely.
If people want to protest something they should protest this prison planet, business closures, lockdowns, and stay at home orders. That's affecting the entire world--rather than an incident in a city in Minnesota amidst a country of 400 million that could fit 30 European nations inside of it.

To answer your question: not at all. I do question how genuine a lot of people are about their outrage over some shit that as been happening for hundreds of years though. Both authority and white people who think the thing to do is post up a black box to feel like they are standing up for their black friends. Not all, but many.

They will never be fully restored. Just like post-911. Rights were taken away that are never coming back. What was initially done to prevent the medical system from being overwhelmed morphed into "until we find a virus" and most people didn't even think twice about it. How convenient when there is no vaccine and there probably never will be a vaccine.
What people fail to understand is that you need to stop looking to your government to make decisions for you. Be your own individual and think for your own. Do your homework. Anderson Cooper, Steven Colbert or whoever the majority of people get their facts and info from are bought and sold and don't give a fuck about you or what is best for you.
We had some protests against this socialism and fascism, but the media dismissed it and labeled them as "crazy people who just want haircuts". Ok....

i noticed you didnt partake in blackout tuesday........to me, it's more a symbol of solidarity and displaying understanding in the depth of the system in place. a lot of people truly believe white supremacy is a made up thing and have no idea why black people are upset right now.
