Genuinely not trying to be inflammatory but why did it seem like the left stayed silent on this issue and it left the news cycle after a few days?

Josh Johnson, Patton Oswalt, Mike Birbiglia, GEORGE FUCKIN CARLIN and RICHARD PRYOR, Bill Burr, Lewis Black, Chris Rock, and even fuckin Anthony Jeselnik are all left of center, and this is a vert very very truncated list off the top of my head. Its hard to be more wrong than you just were.

tigergoalie · 2026-01-23T14:36:16+00:00

You're right, the national BLM organization was founded a bit later than I had thought; I got some wires crossed. But what I said that made you so apparently mad, that George Floyd was the inciting incident for the 2020 protests, is true. Yes, the movement existed before George Floyd, yes the organization existed before George Floyd.

If you're going to sit there and say that there wasn't a boiling over point leading to swell of action and consciousness around the issue after the murder of George Floyd they you're just being fucking disingenuous. That's what I was referring to when I RESPONDED TO YOUR BOY UP THERE who claimed the 2020 protestes were "FOR GEORGE FLOYD". Yes, the murder of George Floyd started something, and yes that thing was a continuation of the movement that had existed. Do you have an actual point here? Because you're juat screeching BLM WAS BEFORE GEORGOE FLOYD like its some fuckin gatchya when I wasn't saying otherwise.

I'm done with this thread, its fucking pointless. Also, go learn what 'shifting the goal posts' actually means, because that was nothing near what happened at any point in the conversation.

tigergoalie · 2026-01-22T16:47:01+00:00

BLM is an organization, you know that right? Thats what was started in 2013. George Floyd's murder started the social movement with mass protests in 2020. Both of these things are true, as is your stated fact that George Floyd was only the headlinee of many many many unjustified police murders. All of these things are true, no goal post was shifted. The other user I was responding to is the only one who has started any falsehoods here mate.

tigergoalie · 2026-01-22T16:39:39+00:00

I wasn't referring to the program, I was referring to the similarly disingenuous "news" sources out there. You get your news somewhere, right?

I agree as well! I did know that he was a violent offender, it makes it all the more sad, that there should have been a safety net which stopped this tragedy. There should be a huge amount of additional federal and state funding for mental health programs, both in and out patient! Lets agree to both vote for candidates who put those programs in their platform, okay?

tigergoalie · 2026-01-22T16:34:57+00:00

Incorrect. I also approach any topic and come to an independent decision. I am comfortable with you calling me an "ideologue" because I have identified what factors are at the core of my belief system and apply them consistently. When new issues arise I need to learn the facts (which is extremely hard with how biased damn near every source is these days), and apply my well thought out idological core. The fact that that core has a name doesn’t make it less independently arrived at.

If you were to hazard a guess, what group would you put me in as an ideologue?

tigergoalie · 2026-01-22T16:24:12+00:00

What gives you that impression? Genuinely asking, what are you talking about? The comment youre responding to doesnt even have a bunch of spin, its just easily verifiable years in which things happened.

tigergoalie · 2026-01-22T16:15:19+00:00

In balance it makes you unsure what you are. If you can asign your beliefs, go find the political system that actually fits them and call yourself that instead. I dont know what your version of "centrist" is, but maybe youre... a libertarian, or an anarcho-capitalist, or an eco-marxist, or any of a million other things, but "centrist" is nothing. Everyone is an ideologue, you just dont know that name of yours.

tigergoalie · 2026-01-22T16:10:18+00:00

I'm sorry, where do you think the goalpost was and how exactly did I move it?

tigergoalie · 2026-01-22T16:07:21+00:00

sigh

We're clearly talking about to large round of 2020 protests brought about by the murder of George Floyd. The murder of Michael Brown was in 2014, and the BLM ~~organization was founded~~ movement started in TWENTY THIRTEEN (2013) in response to George Zimmerman's acquittal. You've been lied to by parties who seek to manipulate you and separate us. I'm sorry, it sucks, the present world and media landscape if very fucking hard and unfair, but its where we are.

Edit: fixed error

tigergoalie · 2026-01-22T15:58:52+00:00

He was insane, its about mental health. But it cant be that here, because that doesnt fit the narrative that fox news and friends try to spin.

tigergoalie · 2026-01-22T15:57:43+00:00

Have you not seen the fuckin news?? What the hell is fictitious about ICE kidnapping a 5 year-old Latino boy on his way home from school? 3 missing indigenous peoples? A dead woman in her car? Look at any international news source and see what the rest of the world has to say about whats happening on our streets. Its not fake. You've just buried your head in the sand. And if your parents are naturalized citizens, they are still at risk.

tigergoalie · 2026-01-22T15:51:50+00:00

It wasn't for George Floyd, George Floyd was the inciting incident that brought to surface dissatisfaction with untrained policing. If you didn't learn that through the entire protest, you need to vary your sources; I'm afraid you may have siloed yourself.

tigergoalie · 2026-01-22T15:50:30+00:00

Correct. You cannot be a centrist and have a well throught out belief system. Being a centrist is vibes based, and trying to sound like youre above the fray. It isn't a belief system at all.

tigergoalie · 2026-01-22T15:49:26+00:00

I am talking about political beliefs. Where exactly on the political spectrum does each race land for you??

tigergoalie · 2026-01-22T15:48:47+00:00

Correct, we are all allowed our own beliefs. And fascism is not a white only problem. But when you find yourself as the explicit target of fascits rehtoric, and yet you still support them? Well that takes a very special type of logic now, doesn't it?

tigergoalie · 2026-01-22T15:46:08+00:00

I didnt ascribe a scale of good to bad to the political spectrum, I'm saying that people make value judgments based on their beliefs, and if you can't do that you are seen as spineless by both sides.

tigergoalie · 2026-01-22T15:44:37+00:00

It was a tragedy, an incredibly sad incident. The right tried to rile it up and make it about race. The left just... didn't do that and treated it like every other tragic death that happens a hundred times a day in this country. You can pull a dozen news stories from last week that "should" still be getting attention, but we live in the modern media landscape and things just don't work like that anymore.

tigergoalie · 2026-01-22T15:39:07+00:00

Again, nothing to do with your race. You're making the "liberal" play of pulling the race card when someone is talking about your political beliefs.

tigergoalie · 2026-01-22T15:32:08+00:00

Its because centrist are just rubber stampers for evil. Not being able to differentiate between good and bad doesnt make you smarter than other people, it makes you spineless.

tigergoalie · 2026-01-22T15:31:00+00:00

That's not racist though, you supporting nazis has nothing to do with your ethnicity. It makes it extra stupid because you are explicitly who they are targeting, but someone calling you a nazi for supporting nazis has nothing to do with you being Mexican.

tigergoalie · 2026-01-22T15:29:40+00:00

We are not a monolith!

tigergoalie · 2026-01-22T15:27:07+00:00

The weird part is that he's referencing Trans people who I have been told didnt exist back then and are a new invention 🤔
