Mostly self-righteous young progressive whites who cheered on Fauci and the charts 2 weeks ago. They have grown bored from sitting home but need an excuse to be out.
This was Thursday in NYC. You can see how white the crowd is despite it being a distant photo. At this point the protests are 90% white fueled by national hosts/anchors who are also mostly white. This is a feel-good excuse to be at gatherings and with no distancing. Frauds.
“Standing in solidarity with” someone or something is you standing WITH it; not that 90% of those standing are outsider because then it becomes about you. How many of the white progressives protesting all week in NYC reached out to leaders of the black community to ask what they
the community needs/wants today? This reminds me of the march in NYC in Jan days after the stabbing of 5 Hasidim in Monsey which was 2 weeks after the shooting in Jersey City at the grocery. There were also other attacks against Orthodox Jews. Thank you for the event guys because
it is better than nothing, but the sponsoring orgs of the event are not Orthodox Jewish which is fine but they did not reach out to leaders in the OJ community to ask “wht do you need/how can we help?” A rally would not be the ask. Indeed, only a limited amount of Orthodox
Jews showed up. The moral? Very nice to stand in solidarity WITH but that means you are an add-on to what the victims’ need. It’s not about you deciding what they need. When you do that it’s mostly self-centered, feel-good garbage that the victims don’t care about or need.
In recent days, mostly-white hosts/anchors are cheering on protesters who are mostly white too. This is outsiders who are interloping into activism in ways that it makes them feel good no matter if it helps or if this is what the community in pain is asking for.
A group of entitled whites are tormenting an African American who is a cop. This bigotry by whites on a black man is at a rally where whites are supposedly in solidarity with blacks. More evidence that the protests at this point is not about caring for minorities.
Days ago, this white person flipped off an African American who is a cop. If the recent upheaval is about white cop’s abuse of blacks, why is this entitled white person attacking this Cop? Oh it’s not about race at this point. It’s about mostly white crowds trashing cops overall.
