So guess what they have incentive to promote? What narrative do they have incentive to promote? It's not about black people, and its not about police brutality. It's about dismantling the longstanding institutions of America.

Their co-founder was praising President Maduro's Venezuela, one of the countries with the highest amount of citizens killed per capita by the police.
This is cultural warfare. The first thing the Red Guards did in China was to destroy temples, topple statues, and re-name everything. Guess what BLM's is trying to do right now?

There is absolutely no evidence that suggests cops are killing black people unprovoked.
9 unarmed black people were killed by police in 2020.
That is less than the amount of black children under 12 killed in their own homes, unprovoked.
Show me the receipts. This bull**** narrative has gone on long enough. Let me guess, you also believe women are paid less for being women right?

Some Asian girl in Canada just had her head stomped on by a cop while handcuffed. BLM doesn't care about that. Is it really about police brutality? Or is it about spreading racial division and propagating a race warfare narrative of the "privileged class" and the "oppressed class" to promote their Marxist political agenda?
"There is absolutely no evidence that suggests cops are killing black people unprovoked."
"9 unarmed black people were killed by police in 2020."
What? Among all police killings from 2013-2019 17% of blacks killed were unarmed compared to the nationwide average of 13%.
Even looking at police killings and policing in general there is racial bias. Black people are affected disproportionately

"mathematical phenomenon called Simpson’s Paradox.

The key point is that not all encounters with police are equally deadly. In any given kind of encounter with the police, a Black person can be likelier to be killed than a white person even if the overall rate of deaths per encounter appears lower for Black people. This would happen because Black people have many more interactions with police in non-deadly situations — a dynamic exacerbated by racism. And all those extra encounters dilute the rate.

Consider two extremes of police encounters: traffic stops and active shooter scenarios. Suppose, hypothetically, that a white suspect is killed by police in one out of 100,000 traffic stops and nine out of 10 shootings. And imagine that Black suspects are killed by police after 20 out of 1,000,000 traffic stops and in 10 out of 10 active shooter incidents. In each kind of incident, Black suspects are killed more often than white suspects. In aggregate, though, the percentage is higher for white people: 10 out of 100,010 white people are killed vs. 30 out of 1,000,010 Black people, because the white people tend to encounter the police in more grave situations."

and before you bring up the notion of violent crime being more popular amongst blacks:

Last time I watched basketball was when the Suns were in the championship in 93'. Looks like the streak continues.

The nfl will go this route soon. Goodell bending the knee was just the beginning.

Because it has nothing to do with sport and has the potential to cause violence.

We can stop thinking of NBA and NFL as sports for everyone.

They are now the BET of sports

"rebound by "I can't breathe", passed it up the court to "he was a good boy", over behind the arc to "fuk 12" and the pass inside for a slam by "white silence is violence"

This includes ownership.

I thought "fuk 12" was pretty creative lmfao

inb4 "covid 19" from 6 ft, but is immediately shutdown, "he was out for a jog" rebounds and runs the fastbreak, passes it to "black lives matter" for the posterization ... and 1! Black on black crime! You won't hear any protests to the refs on that one. Ball is inbounded to "White guilt" but the ball gets stolen and he's downed on one knee, "fuk 12" gets away with murder on that offensive foul, passes it to "We get hunted everyday" who attempts to hunt for his own shot but is popped by his own teammate on the screen, but the refs call a foul on the opposing team. "All Lives Matter" attempts to dispute the call peacefully but is immediately issued 2 technical fouls before stating his position and is thrown out the game. "Black Power" claps in "All Lives Matter's" face as if to goad him into doing something but "All Lives Matter" knows better than to retaliate to risk getting cancelled by the league.
