alt Hacker NewsI'd love to read a proper analysis on Americans reducing race and racism to colouring books with pretty little lines. I did read one recently, but it put the onus for it entirely on BLM (since it was focused on a global scale), despite the phenomenon being far older than them.
I do sometimes wonder how Americans would react if I told them the palest person I know is Iraqi.
It's statistics, not individuals. And I don't think BLM has anything to do with it other than that it is something that some people apparently find psychologically hard to deal with because they have arranged their lives in such a way that they only have 'whites' in their close environment. You can tell they misunderstood because of how it almost immediately led to 'Blue Lives Matter' and 'All Lives Matter' respectively.
