I really believe they do want to have a conversation on the topic. Its just not something that many people feel comfortable talking about, as if you listen to their premise it can really frick up your world view. which is the point.

Frankly, their actions belie this assertion.

Mic-theft is not "wanting to have a conversation". That's called hijacking.

Serious question, what is the point?

I got into a spirited conversation with some friends who support the BLM movement, and they couldn't tell me. I kept asking for a defined problem and their proposed solution and they just kept talking in circles about how fricked up the system is.

I've read some black lives matter material and it mostly just trashes what they perceive to be institutional racism. Do they ever clearly define the problem or present a solution? Or is it just people making noise?
