    Me when I purposely try to ignore global power structures put into place by numerous historical events.

      That somehow renders all other lives worthless? What are you even trying to say with this reply?

      What power structures are preventing black people or other to do anything nowdays?

          Didn’t know what it even meant up until this point, just searched it’s meaning up.

          But no, I was asking actual questions.

            There is absolutely nothing ‘good faith’ about what you’re doing here. You aren’t fooling anyone.

            idk what to tell you. it’s not in any way indicating a message of superiority.

              My point is, that by putting black people on a pedestal, you are again making race diversion, which just makes it even harder for everyone to be seen as equals.

              Goal should be to stop cop violence altogether, because it’s bad on it’s own.

        No one is saying other lives are worthless. You’re attacking a made-up position.

          I’m not attacking anyone. By saying “Black Lives Matter” you are excluding black people from other races, as if they didn’t matter up until this point?

        If I say “I like ice cream” you wouldn’t assume that ice cream is the only food I like.
