Can anyone articulate the goals of this current movement and how they will be achieved?
- Thread starter Billy Ocean
- Start date
The goal is November's election. Its like clockwork every election cycle when democrats need to rally the base.
You are taking this protest movement well, huh? Black people protesting scares you I guess.
i don’t think most people protesting are just using this as a ruse to drive Democrat votes
they claim to have a broader set of goals in mind but my sense is that the goals are so vague as to have little meaning
for example, is one of the goals to end institutional racism?
seems like it
but no one really defines that concept, how it’s currently being perpetuated and how any practical solution could be achieved
lts nice to say you’re against institutional racism, but really who isn’t in theory outside of a few fringe wackos
the harder question is what does that really mean when you say that
is it just a hashtag?
If that’s all it turns out to be, then don’t you think that will become evident and will frustrate the victims of this phenomenon even more?
I think you're being a little naive. Its a media driven democrat get out the vote campaign. Had it not been the Floyd incident there would have been something else. The reporting drives the narrative and the foot soldiers of the left spark the outrage, protests and ultimately riots. Its all become predictable every election cycle. Its like clockwork the summer before a big November election.
Uhhhh No. Sorry. That's a reaction to an unprecedented situation and an unprecedented over-reach by blue state governors.
Suuure! All the billionaires were funding it out of the goodness of their hearts?
I think the demands have been pretty clear. And it’s starting to work already.
If the demands are pretty clear it shouldn’t take you much effort to provide a list of them. While you’re at it, maybe you can show us how it’s starting to work already. Like a progress report against the list of demands.
Get back to us ok.
That is all I ever get.left handed compliments !! )
Mean kids say stuff like, "I bet you were a good teacher back in the day."
Me, in my snappy repartee, disqualify by replying: "Nah, I sucked then too." Then I counter with "We're you ever a good student?"
You got to go for prison reform.
That will help poor white people too.
The problem is that special interest groups are making $$$$$ from the status quo.

so can you articulate the demands and how they will be met?
if it’s clear it should be easy
Take a look at he house bill, or continue pontificating in ignorance.
