When I found out later in life that it was carefully engineered by Yankee Jews, it made me that much more disillusioned with social justice movements.


I'm not sure why. I guess it's a nice fairy tale that entrenched power structures can routinely be toppled by dumb luck and chance, but that's not really reflective of reality. If anything, this is a great example of why organized, intentional campaigns are necessary.

I think it just shows that a lot of the supposed misery was manufactured. If black people were so oppressed, why did it take smart kids from Brooklyn telling them how oppressed they were for anything to happen?

I’m learning that more and more every day.

It’s a weird thing, I’m obviously happy with the results of Rosa Park’s story and agree with the intent.

But then we have the poop swastikia and Jussie Smollett combined with numerous other false flags and you wonder how much is organic vs forced change.

I think it goes back to the fact that a progressive always feels like they have to be moving things forward and when they run out of “bad things” to fix, they have to start making them up.
