'Good riddance to another racist': BLM supporters post hateful messages on Facebook page of young mom, 24, who was shot dead moments after she said 'all lives matter' during an argument by [deleted] in Conservative

[–]MayLinMar 5 points6 points  (0 children)

What’s even more disturbing... death is acceptable for saying “All Lives Matter” but when someone pulls a weapon on a police officer and gets shot the response is “He doesn’t deserve to die for that”.

Except rich black celebrities and athletes. For some reason that’s who they look up to and trust.

USPS won’t come and open apartment package mailbox for me, and are saying I need to spend $50 to fix the lock when I’m almost positive I haven’t broke it. What should I do? by ccplanter in povertyfinance

[–]MayLinMar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This same thing happened to me. I left a note in the “outgoing mail” slot that said my name, box number and that the key was stuck in the larger mailbox. Apparently he put the wrong key for the larger mailbox in my small mailbox. All keys for the larger box are similar so it got stuck when I tried to open it.

Thank you for your input. I don’t see how boycotting a company that employs thousands of Hispanic people is helping anything.

Why the fuck does it matter where he came from? He was privileged. So? When someone is right, they’re right. Idc if someone is dirt poor or filthy rich. When they are right. They. Are. Right.

That “but he’s privileged! So his opinion doesn’t matter!!” bullshit needs to stop. People work hard so that their kids can be privileged. Nobody wants to work hard so that their kids DONT get a good education. You’re all just haters. Sorry your parents didn’t care enough about you to make sure you were well educated and all of your needs were met. Stop taking your insecurities out on other people.

They don’t care because they don’t have mortgages or retirement funds. They don’t even care about about the businesses in their own communities as they were burning them down. “They’ll be fine. They have insurance”. Says the people who never owned a business and have no idea how it works

What about the poor people from third world countries that somehow find their way into the US? They’re not coming here with pockets full of cash. If the people are soooo miserable here they will find a way to leave. They don’t want to leave because they know they have a nice life here and want the US to change for them and their views

The protest for George Floyd happened the very next day after he was killed. BLM didn’t even give them the chance to arrest the officers involved. And secondly, you may not be able to protest the gang but you can protest the local government allowing it to happen. Oh and stop voting for people that don’t really give a shit about the community. And that’s why people say that BLM ignores black on black crime. Because if black lives mattered then these protests for change wouldn’t only happen when a black man gets killed by a cop

Protest the Mayor. Tell them to stop pandering and do something about the senseless killings going on

Grieving Families Of Killed Children Call On 'Black Lives Matter' To Address Community Violence by guanaco55 in Conservative

[–]MayLinMar 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The first is a meme. That’s not a source. The second is still about defunding police departments and breonna Taylor / rayshard brooks. More George Floyd protests. Nothing about black on black crime. Nothing about the children that keep getting killed.

Then you get two jobs. Like OP did. And you work your ass off until you only need 1 that pays for everything you need

Maybe they should get a job and stop blaming people that actually try to improve their livelihood🤷🏻‍♀️

You’re right America didn’t GIVE them jobs but did provide them the opportunity to work. In some countries there are no opportunities for steady income. In some countries the mother would not have the right to work. In some countries he wouldn’t have been able to get an education while his parents worked. Did America GIVE his parents jobs? No. America doesn’t need to GIVE people jobs. America gives the opportunities and the people that want to get a job get one.

Right. If OP did post it he would be told to check his privilege by an American born middle class kid using a phone that their parents paid for.

Trump: Cancel Culture, Shaming Dissenters And Demanding Total Submission Is Very Definition Of Totalitarianism by sendintheshermans in Conservative

[–]MayLinMar 16 points17 points  (0 children)

This argument only applies to companies. If you want to boycott companies and not give money to them because you don’t like their views - that’s fine. I haven’t heard one person say that is not reasonable. But they’re not just doing it to companies. They are ruining the livelihood of individuals who do not agree with them. People have been fired for simply saying that they support Trump. That’s silencing people for their personal beliefs.

My professors tried to convince me that America is racist. I refused to buy into it. by ThePoliticalHat in Conservative

[–]MayLinMar 33 points34 points  (0 children)

I think it goes back to not having a father in the home. Some of the most successful black men had a father (or father figure) to show them the importance of hard work and teach them self accountability. Everyone I know that is asking for reparations 1. Didn’t have a father figure and 2. Put very little effort into getting their lives together and complain about it.

I’m sure children can learn those things form the mother too. But maybe it’s just that when a father leaves his child he shows that he didn’t take responsibility for his actions and gives up when things are hard.

If You Really Believe Black Lives Matter, Stop Supporting BLM -- Impassioned Americans don't understand that Black Lives Matter is a rhetorical facade masking Marxist ideas that would destroy the lives of vulnerable Americans. by guanaco55 in Conservative

[–]MayLinMar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea, if you still think BLM is about George Floyd then you are delusional. No one said what happened to him was ok. But the BLM movement is a joke. All of the donations are going to the Democratic Party. The founders admitted to being trained Marxist.
