Why saying "all lives matter" communicates to Black people that their lives don't. (excerpt) For lifestyle blogger Ayana Lage, whether the phrase is posted with ill intentions or good ones, the effect is the same. It derails the conversation. "It's the same as when people bring up 'black-on-black crime' when you are discussing police brutality... Literally anytime that I mention anything about Black Lives Matter or police reform, I get comments about 'well, what about the looters'. And I'm kind of like, well that's not what we're talking about", she told CBS News. "The talking points are almost all the same when you're having conversations with people: black-on-black crime, Chicago, I don't see color, you want to be a victim, all lives matter. I mean, you just hear the same things from people and you just start to think, 'Man, maybe some people are committed to misunderstanding what we're trying to do here". "No one's saying that your life doesn't matter," Lage continued. "What we're saying... is all lives can't matter until black lives matter". [end excerpt]
I'm not speaking for anyone. I'm telling you what the BLM slogan means as per BLM. The're the ones who determine the meaning, not you. YOU get over yourself.
Then MAGA doesn't mean "make america great again". It means "massive ass gas attack", as per me. Because (in England) a "trump" is a fart. And, as per YOU, those who come up with slogans don't get to determine what they mean. btw, regarding your offer... did you just come out of the closet?

Oh my, but Black lives matter communicates to all other ethnicities that their lives don't matter. Ayana Lange can just get over herself.
It doesn't.
lol! YOU speak for all humanity? Get over yourself Dervish! BWAH-HA-HA-HA!

BLM compiles the OED? They don't determine the meaning of sh*t! ALL LIVES MATTER. You got a problem with THAT, you can suck my d*ck.

....closet?
...only if you just came out as a literal "c*cksucker".
YOU made the offer. I'm not interested.
lol! Just the opposite. You wanted me to "come out of the closet" so that you could follow through with my demand that you "suck my d*ck". :)
No thanks.
It wasn't a request. :)
It reads as a demand to me. Because I do have a problem with your "all lives matter" bullshit.
So get down on yours knees and SUCK, Dervish!
LOL. Looks like this is your fantasy after all.
...keep going... I can almost FEEL it. BWAH!
