Interesting that white conservatives are now experts on King's thought process. More so than his own kids and personal friends, apparently.
Please, please give me one example of how the BLM "movement" even comes in comparison with the thoughts, strength, and tactic of Dr. King's movement in the '60s. Don't be such a fool.
The fools are the people who simultaneously
spew the same rhetoric and arguments with the same antipathy that their ilk provided to the civil rights movement but yet sincerely believe they would have been in full support of that race-baiter and rabble-rouser, vindicated by half a century of history, King.
I mean look at the complaints in this thread.
BLM blocked a highway? BLM protested in a school library? BLM 'inconvenienced' average(read:white) Americans? The civil rights movement consisted of similar actions to raise tension, dramatize pertinent issues facing black Americans, and force white Americans to confront them by any (nonviolent) means necessary. How are these BLM protests any different except without a single, public face to draw praise, criticism, and attention away from malcontents who despised the "white devil", and the addition of internet slacktivists?
Because the whole democratic candidates hasn't been pandering to SJW's and islamlic terrorist apologetic people yet.
BLM and MLK have literally nothing in common. MLK had vision and class. BLM is made up of hatred and chaos.
BLM is a joke of a social movement, lol. The only thing they're good at is interrupting random speeches and getting on the nerves of average Americans. They are not calling a voice towards anything, just being senselessly annoying to the American public and harassing law enforcement. It is a movement powered by high schoolers gathered on Twitter hashtags and mostly low-income inner city African Americans giving police officers an incredibly hard time.
MLK would be ashamed.
I wish the internet, and specifically Atlas, had been around during the 1960s so we could have heard the usual suspects complain about "that uppity negro preacher from Atlanta and his commie friends".
Also, "average Americans"? lol, I wonder what that could mean?
What's your point?
The BLM movement is a joke. It doesn't pale in comparison to Dr. King. He spoke out on a real issue and put his life on the line drawing a national movement of it that changed the tides of America. The BLM is the annoying little brother that won't shut up, interrupts speeches, and gives everybody a hard time over a nonissue.
Police brutality and mass incarceration are nonissues in the same way segregation was nothing more than a personal inconvenience to Negroes.
