How is that form of protest acceptable to us tho? You go beat up my wife, & I go & burn my own house down?
Make it make sense please 🤔
Tomi Lahren is so fkn disingenuous. BLM protesters were burning down businesses/properties owned by non-Black people who keep their communities in a stranglehold, forcing them to accept the choices of several evils over and over again. Those evils are never to the benefit of those Black communities. Historical and contemporary redlining and gentrification are real issues that continue to have deleterious effects upon Black communities across the country.
I agree, that Tomi is disingenuous. She's white, so that's built into her DNA 🤷🏿♂️
However, I find fault in the notion that burning down resources (as limited & non-Black controlled as they admittedly are) is an effective means of protest.
The question becomes, what next? The next day after the protest, when that white or Asian or Arab corner store or laundromat is a smoldering husk, where are we gonna get food from for our children?
We can't go to the white stores in the areas that Tomi lives in. And it's not like we're gonna replace those burnt down stores with stores of our own.
So what's the alternative? 🤔
Meanwhile, when white people engage in domestic warfare (or even warfare in general), they march, drive, or even fly to their enemies destination & burn their enemies stuff down, & make sure to maintain a clear, safe distance from their own territories.
This is how good warfare is conducted. What Black folks end up doing, is akin to throwing a tantrum 😫😤 because we go right back to begging the same people we just protested against for assistance. It's not big picture thinking in the slightest.
Crackas don't fear us, because they don't perceive us as being a threat to them. And I'm not talking about some old "clutch your purse, lock you car door" nonsense. We've shown them time & time again, that they can attack us physically, economically, biologically, & psychologically, & more often than not, we're not gonna do them nothing.
Sure, a skirmish here & there, like the boat house fight in Alabama. But nothing widescale & systematic on our parts.
In order to defeat one's enemy, you must first learn from & about them. In 500yrs, Black people have failed to do that.
I say that a Black man’s freedom is as valuable as a White man’s freedom. And I say that a Black man has the right to do whatever is necessary to get his freedom that other human beings have done to get their freedom. https://malcolmxfiles.com/

Is this not the narrative to ever cop shooting of unarmed African people verbatim
DeathSantis has never come out against any of the Nazis that waved swastikas outside of DisneyWorld
DeathSantis has mainstreamed the talking points of Nazi extremists
He has had black ex convicts arrested for daring to vote
He put "brown" migrants on planes and sent them to the whitest place on earth...Martha's Vinyard
He defended a curriculum that both sides a massacre of blacks
He's banned African American studies
He banned state universities from using state or federal money for diversity programs
One of his staffers made a commercial with him standing in front of a Neo Nazi symbol
Then he said that slavery allowed slaves to develop skills which, in some instances, could be applied for their personal benefit
I'm not saying that Ron is a Nazi...I'm saying he behaves like one
