“but it seems like you’ll forever stay missing the point & feel content in keeping the very problems in place which brought about his speech.”

Alright I’m going to spell it right the fuck out for you since you’re not only doing the exact thing you’re accusing me of, but you’re proving my point at the same time.

“And I would be the first to say that I am still committed to militant, powerful, massive, non­-violence as the most potent weapon in grappling with the problem from a direct action point of view. I’m absolutely convinced that a riot merely intensifies the fears of the white community while relieving the guilt. And I feel that we must always work with an effective, powerful weapon and method that brings about tangible results.”



Literally right from the exact same speech you got that exerpt from, which you’d know if you actually fucking bothered to read things and fucking THINK before you type. You can be against riots AND racist injustice! Wow what a fucking concept!

THE ONLY ONE MISSING THE POINT HERE IS YOU, YOU WILLFULLY IGNORANT MOTHERFUCKER.

Look mate, if you hear the words “don’t fight oppression with violence and setting shit on fire” and interpret that as “don’t fight oppression AT ALL” that’s your problem, not anyone else’s. You can fight injustice through other means, and it’s fucking WORKED. People are not against you or your goals, they are against the means you use to achieve them.

And guess what else bub?

Segregation isn’t in place anymore! People are less racist now, whether you want to admit it or not! Our culture has spent the last half a decade or so hammering it into our heads that racism is wrong! Notice how many people AGREE with you that police brutality is a problem even if they don’t like BLM!

All because of peaceful activists like Dr. King did literally anything other than act like fools and set cities on fucking fire. The more the racists in power showed their inhumanity to their fellow man, the less and less people stood on the sidelines and marched along with them, which in turn led to the accomplishment of desegregation, a hallmark victory.

Now compare that to damn near every BLM “protest” where idiots loot shops often owned by OTHER BLACK PEOPLE, destroy property, cut firehoses so that fire departments can’t clean up after them, destroy pharmacies that everyone INCLUDING BLACK PEOPLE get their life-dependent medicine from, block fucking highways where everyone from the average Joe trying to feed his family TO FUCKING AMBULANCES WITH PEOPLE IN NEED OF IMMEDIATE HOSPITAL CARE can’t get to their fucking destination because you idiots can’t even direct your anger at the right goddamn targets!

In an age where any single thing can be recorded and uploaded to youtube at any time, what the fuck do you think is going to happen when you use the wrong methods, at the wrong targets, and to add insult to injury make literally every single fucking tragedy like Paris or Orlando about you as if people somehow can’t care about more than one thing at a time?

But the worst part of all is how you keep saying “peaceful protest doesn’t work” when it has undeniably worked in the past. Only a moron would say “racism doesn’t exist anymore”, but when you say that Dr. King’s methods are ineffective, you are erasing the accomplishments of him and every activist of his era.

But sure go ahead and ruin all that progress because you want an excuse to burn everything around you, see how well that works out.
