All lives do not matter. Nazi lives do not matter. KKK lives don’t matter. Pedophile lives do not matter. Zoophile lives don’t matter. Murderer lives do not matter. There are so many lives to name that just don’t matter. Saying All Lives Matter is like going to a ‘Save The Whales!’ rally and saying, ‘All animals matter!’ You’re going to a protest about black lives and saying that all lives matter too. The fact is, all lives do not matter. Black people have been being killed and have been slaves. It’s just very problematic to support or say ALM. Don’t do it.
A lot of people seem to misunderstand slogans, be it BLM or Defund the police.
The first one doesn't means that black lives should matter more than others lives, it means it should matter just as much, which is clearly not the case at the moment in the US. Saying it is either just showing how delusional you are about the reality, either just because you don't want to understand.
Second one isn't taking all the money from the police and that's all, it's taking a part of their gargantuan budget -seriously, look up how much money they get in comparison to other important stuff- and use this money on other things like mental health, drug prevention and rehab etc. Which would allow police to not have to do jobs they aren't trained for and so they can to a better police job while improving their safety and the drug addict or mentally ill person safety, it's just win-win.
Mhm, indeed. Allow me to make this reply in a powerpoint style to address each point.
1a. Indeed, that is quite true, though, BLM shows hypocrisy through trying to get inclusion of the black community through the exclusion of everyone else. Why not try to make race not a thing if you're fighting for equality?
1b. They definitely do try to make everyone elses issues not matter though, like saying "white people can't face racism" even though I have faced serious racism in my life as a white person. The main reason I don't support them is their ignorant and sometimes racist generalizations.
2. It could be done, however, I believe we should put that money into better training, better limitations, etc. Defunding the police wouldn't really be productive. Overall, just use the Canadian system.
Because, in their view, it dilutes an issue they see as uniquely Black. To a certain extent, even as a Trumpster, I agree. Do the lives 18 Blacks murdered in Chicago last weekend matter? Do the 40+% of Black babies aborted every year matter? Or do some Black lives matter more than others?
They are pissed off that they aren't SPECIAL, being black, or African-American! ALL LIVES matter, but most of us don't RIOT, and block roads and freeways, and piss off the ones that are needed to support the cause!!
because they feel like "black lives matter" represents the fight against a problem and when you say "all lives matter", to them it seems like you're trying to sweep their problem under the rug.
i'm not saying that this is very sensible but that's what it is.
Some that say all lives matter think Black Lives Matter means ONLY black lives matter. It really means black lives matter too so they say it as a response. It's not only black lives that matter, all lives matter. However, some people get triggered just by hearing or seeing All Lives Matter and those people are ignorant hypocrites. You cannot be fighting for equal opportunity and get mad when someone says we all matter. Black, Blue, Brown, White, All lives matter.
It's indirectly questioning their perspective on reality. When someone says "All Lives Matter" they are indirectly saying that black lives are not in any particular danger or being valued less than other lives. For many people this is an obvious truth. For many others it is an affront to all they know.
It's a conflict of worldviews, that is practically on a religious level. There are lots of strong emotions on all sides. People's fundamental Truth is being questioned.
Becay it's the same as people saying not all men or men get raped too. They're just using it to overshadow them. When someone says black lives matter, they don't mean only black lives matter. Of course all lives matter, but people are using to push away their movement. They're saying black lives matter because they are being targeted and want to remind that they matter too.
Because it’s a slap in the face of what is actually trying to be communicated. I say black lives matter (no where am I saying no one else loves matter), and then you respond all lives matter. So then what you are saying by responding in that manner is: what you are saying (black lives matter) is unimportant. The real question is why are you triggered to say all lives matter? Is it because you believe all lives matter or is it because or you don’t like blacks.
Because they do not understand the principle of the message behind what black lives matter. People keep on killing black people for no reason. The message isn't supposed to downgrad white people. It means that stop killing black people just to kill them.
They get that way because you're not giving in to their dumb ass agenda and you're actually thinking for yourself.
Its just political propaganda. Those who say ALL LIVES MATTER are correct in their philosophy. God created us all in HIS image. People across the world are not doing what America is right, meaning as a whole. I do know some in Europe are protesting but damn they always fighting about something and protesting.
BLM is a respond to the racists who think it doesn't matter a penny, and to a whole system that back up their cosmovision. But why BLM? It's true that slavery and oppression always existed, however, Europe made an empire out if it. Who were the most affected?, Africans drawged world wide and Native Americans without mucho places to live.

Because they want to keep acting like they’re victims when they’re not. Many more whites die at the hands of police than blacks. But when it happens the media stays silent. Many more whites die killed by blacks than vice versa. And black on black crime is WAYYYY higher than white on black or even black on white. But go ahead and keep screaming racism. Don’t wanna get killed by cops? Maybe don’t go around committing crimes and you won’t have to worry about it. Just a thought
@Gwxn_xy People who say All Lives Matter just to make BLM less important that's not nice. But most just want to say that ALM cause it's true and everyone, including BLM, matter.
People will tell you it's because it drive the attention away from BLM. Truth is, for them, not all lives matter. Only lives they're told to care about matter. And since they're told that white people are bad and evil and privileged, they just don't give a shit about them dying. But not just white people in fact. They don't give a shit about Asians or latinos either.
In fact, their movement should be called "only black lives matter".
It depends on why you're saying it. As just a general statement then it's fine but if you're saying it in response to Black Lives Matter then it's pretty messed up. It's like if a police officer watching you get assaulted decided to drive across town to stop a bunch of guys from gambling. Yeah gambling does matter but me getting my teeth kicked in matters more at the moment. All Lives Matter is basically saying "Let's not prioritize"

The Chicago murders have organizational group started by blacks who want to take care of that.
Black abortions are fine in my book I would rather they be virgins but nobody needs a teenage pregnancy
They are pissed off that they aren't SPECIAL, being black, or African-American!
ALL LIVES matter, but most of us don't RIOT, and block roads and freeways, and piss off the ones that are needed to support the cause!!

because BLM isn't actually about black lives. It's about cultural marxism and tearing down the western family structure.

Because they are racists themselves. I thought we all knew that? It’s practically written across their foreheads...
It's fine to say all lives matter but some people think it's trying to make black lives mater movement less important.
YES! worded perfectly
@Gwxn_xy People who say All Lives Matter just to make BLM less important that's not nice. But most just want to say that ALM cause it's true and everyone, including BLM, matter.
Indeed! I usually use ALM as a serious idea for a group, no matter the race, united against racism.
Because they're crazy.
Kiss my ass haters =D
I'm not a BLM activist but I get triggered. I look at people all the time and think why do I need them alive, what they for?
