That's my issue, as well. What's the end goal to all of this BLM stuff?

Exactly. Pop brings up these examples:

"Well, because it's uncomfortable and there has to be an uncomfortable element in the discourse for anything to change. Whether it's the LGBT movement or women's suffrage, it doesn't matter."

Both had/continue to have tangible goals in mind. "Change" is damn near impossible when you don't have anything tangible to actually change.

I realize the nature of progressivism is that they have to always move on to the next item to improve the world. Fine. But, we are not really in a bad spot here. A black man was president for 8 years and I think most people are cool with gay marriage. Coming from a guy who was reading stuff like Democratic Underground every day during Dubya's second term, I can't believe what the left has become. The party that preaches free speech pushes safe spaces and censorship of anything that doesn't align with their cause. They went too far with stuff like tranny bathrooms and outrage every time a white cop kills a black man, without actually looking at the facts in each case.

I do wish Trump would have chilled out on the kneeling issue after making a few points about it. It has gone from some ambiguous statement about the treatment of black people to a free speech issue and I think he looks bad going berserk over it every day.

"love it or leave it."

Nothing changes with that attitude.

And its common on td.
Small minds.
