The MLK, JFK and RFK have not been released yet.
The JFK files had to be released in 15 days, the MLK and RFK in 30 days (or something to that effect)
All of that is old stuff.

bullshite! He was a trouble-stirring fraud. A trained communist agitator.
He trained at the Highlander Folk School on Monteagle Mountain in Tennessee. Rosa Parks also trained there.

What day do we tear down his statues?

Are we talking pedo pedo or like 14/15 yo girls pedo? Because while creepy, 14/15 yo girls are not the same as prepubescent.
We have classic rock hits romanticizing the latter, the former requires a millstone.

We needed trouble stirred in the 1960s Deep South.
Whether you were poor white, black or Catholic you were getting legally screwed by corrupt politicians from the state house to the county sheriff back then and anyone being remotely objective would agree.
Laws not equally applied or intended to prevent groups from receiving the rights due to them based on constitution are wrong and he helped change that.
What LBJ did once JFK died was as bad as the racism it claimed to want to replace, but that’s not on MLK.
As I pointed out he was very likely not a good man and might’ve deserved to be in prison depending on what is or isn’t true, but I believe good came from his message.

Malcolm X ends up being the cleanest with the most truthful teachings.
No one had this on their bingo card, no one.

IIRC: I have read before that MLK was a fake. Almost satanic ritual abuse orgies. He was like Diddy. A demonic pig. Bisexual demon.
But who and why was he shot?

Why? So we could win the propaganda war against the Soviets?
I’m not going to defend the pre civil rights era as the ideal that we need to go back to, but on the other hand the civil rights legislation and its aftermath was and is an abject failure.
Read some books on school integration and bussing. It created violent chaos. Cities were destroyed and have never recovered. The black population has drastically declined in every single category since then. So again, why should it have happened? What is the tangible justification?
Also, it’s interesting that even though people ritually worship democracy, every single “progress” policy the past century has been implemented against the will of the people in top down mandates
Civil rights legislation
Immigration reform
Abortion
Gay marriage
Etc.
The will of the people is never considered. Polling showed all of those as losing issues, yet it didn’t matter. When the regime wants something they do it. Democracy is a facade and a charade.

Then you agree that something needed to be done.
You may not like what was done (and with good reason, IMO), but why push back on the contention that a change was needed?

Actually I don’t. I think people would have sorted out what they wanted on their own.

You are defending Jim Crow by saying it’s ok because that’s what people voted for.
If you truly believe it’s ok to do those things as long as it’s done via local vote you’re not a christian in your values, don’t value the bill of rights and aren’t worth engaging with.

You can try to shame me with platitudes all you want, but the data is on my side. The more fruitful endeavor would have been to make good faith efforts to change people’s minds, even if it took many years.
Go ahead and explain how it helped black Americans. You’re so certain it was the right thing to do, yet it yielded terrible results. How do you square that circle?

It’s been well known King had diddy style freak offs. Nothing new

This is wild, it’s like walking through the woods and seeing a dodo bird that was supposed to be extinct.

You’re being emotional and resorting to binary thinking.
I am not a pro Jim Crow law proponent. I just refuse to acknowledge the civil rights legislation was a positive when it yielded nothing but negatives for the population it aimed to assist.
So by default it leads me to believe that it would have been better to leave things as they were and make efforts to change people’s minds organically.
That is the more moral position, despite your knee jerk apprehension to see it.
