    not misconstrued.

    i prefaced it by saying, who are you to judge what is a just amount to give.

    the fact he is giving should be enough in a time of need.

    especially when you compare 50$ to $100 000, which was the original point.

    you asked what about ye after saying drake donated a lump sum. i said he's in the same boat, to which you responded about kanye setting up a fund for elderly black people for an entirely unrelated cause.

    so then you've made no point. if it's not to THIS cause, for one of the MANY injustices. I do not care about what kanye is doing. especially since he's completely silent on the subject.

    if they wanna show they’re with the movement maybe they should post helpful info + resources instead of a f***ing blank screen and a couple emojis

    The 7 Day Theory

    It was when I see majority posters mad a single post an they not from American like me or black

    This entertainment and a game to them

    Different between me and you I call out the fake s***

    Information and videos still being posted but y’all crying bout a black picture post

    F*** outta here and keep the focus on the problem

    I’m not black or American

    I just don’t understand how the black screen helps? It’s just an easy cop out and it comes up instead of actual reality of what happens in the streets right now

  • Jun 2, 2020

    This movement so clearly has roots in social media and suddenly there’s a trend to spam hashtags related to it and not post on social media for a day

    Sus as F***

    Nobody likes watching any of this

    The fear is that a lot of people will use the blackout posts as a replacement for paying active attention to what's going on. Information is the most useful thing the public has rn and nobody wants that to be tampered with or buried

    But like I said before we'll wait and see

    Yes they do go thru the thread

    And you will see it was the majority non Americans poster complaining first like they was missing out on an episode of the wire

    This s*** not a game to me

    I’m not one to buy into unfounded conspiracies
    But that blackout s*** is the most feds esque momentum killing s*** I’ve seen in a minute and smart ass people I know are eating it up

    Right? Glad I'm not the only one noticing this.

    I think usually not every person would go out of their way to protest and riot unless they really are activist

    Even if you’re black you might have a job and your own life issues and wouldn’t take a week off to protest (some would but not everybody globally like that)

    Covid helped

    I do think covid and the economy helped but also keep in mind that although we didn't have nationwide riots, we did have nationwide (peaceful) protests throughout the last decade before covid. It part of the reason "SJW" became a popular insult.

    I think when you have a movement that makes ppl feel they are apart of something bigger than themselves they will embrace it.

    When everyone is posting black squares and following the trend it makes it that much harder to find the s*** that matters

  • Jun 2, 2020

    I’m sure people are getting a thrill out of watching violent footage

    Why do u think action movies sell and have sold so well, we’re a culture of violence

    Y’all want people to support black lives but then like “that’s not the way you should do it! Do it my way!”

    Let people protest how they want.

    Don’t criticize people that are trying to help

    That’s a very simple concept

    posting a black square that's drowning out important info isn't protesting

    Except that if something people are doing is actively hurting the movement then they should be made aware of it
