Ever since the BLM riots, I have worried that my attitude towards blacks has gotten worse. I spent much time trying to walk myself back from this racist abyss. And then I found bloggers on YouTube who shared my sentiments. They were all black, but they too were feeling Black Fatigue.
These black bloggers were feeling the same way about other blacks, but being non-white, they were free to talk about it. They, too, want to avoid what they call “ghetto blacks.” They helped me realize that I was no more racist than they were. I found kindred spirits. Everything that I was feeling about ghetto blacks was also being felt by blacks. It wasn’t a racial thing at all, it is just a feeling that good people have towards bad people; skin color plays no part. But to be fair, we have plenty of ghetto whites as well.
So, if BLM turned you into a racist, many blacks feel the same way that you do. BLM just widened the gulf between blacks and other races, including their own.
If you have been watching the news, you’ll see that the ICE protesters are following the BLM script: protest for a few hours, light a few cars on fire, then loot a few stores before heading home. And that is what makes, as the media says, a “mostly peaceful protest.” Just as BLM opened my eyes to ghetto blacks, the ICE protests have opened my eyes to the threat of illegal immigrants; it is funny how looting does that to a person.
If your cause is centered around inflicting harm on a community, you’ll never get many of us to see your cause of being anything other than domestic terrorism.
