Shaun King saying white Jesus is a form of white supremacy is equivalent to the Third Estate's disdain for the Catholic Church's incredibly powerful political influence and will lead to public executions of the clergy and other members of the ruling class?
Yeah, I never heard of the guy before yesterday, but apparently he has or had a following. I also heard one of the founders of BLM admit she was a trained Marxist.
That Mrs Washington was a satisfied customer?
Eary stages. If these violent protests continue to go unchecked, I will bet a paycheck that eventually it will result in mobs storming Government buildings and taking of prisoners.
YaleDawg: "Using your voice as an athlete to push for societal change by threatening to not play or flying a flag with a symbol that represents a country founded on white supremacy?"
Do you believe America (as in North & South) was founded on white supremacy or just Confederate states?
If you've watched any TV these past few weeks, you'd see that mobs, behave as they always have and develop a mind of their own. There is little rationale given for the things they destroy (i.e. black-owned businesses, monument to the 54th Massachusetts Regiment, statue of US Grant). It's destruction for the sake of destruction; the sentiment is ultimately the same.
How can anyone think I was talking about the founding of the US when the Mississippi state flag looks like this?
What we are seeing in many parts of the country, especially Seattle, very much resembles the early stages of the Bolshevik Revolution. That movement was modeled after the French revolution. These left-wing anarchist arent about anything related to race. Also very interesting that the founder of the BLM movement described herself as a trained Marxist in an interview last week
You said "country", that implies ALL colonies, not just Southern colonies.
I'm not familiar with the Miss. flag, but again if anyone thinks removing the Stars & Bars from that flag will suddenly change the plight of those feeling oppressed then I've got some ocean front property in Arizona I'd like to sell them.
would it look something like this?
When was the last riot? Early June? Overwhelming amount of protests have been non-violent. Could you point to areas of continuing violence stemming from civil unrest?
@YaleDawg l assume you went to Yale, right? People in glass houses shouldn't throw stones. Elihu Yale was a **** trader. I think it's time to rename that elitist institution, don't you? #CancelYale.
Perhaps we should also remove the statue of William M. Rice at Rice University since he believed school should be for "whites only". #CancelRice
Heck William & Mary is another we should go after. William is named after William the 3rd...who profitted off shares of **** trading Royal African Company, which started transatlantic **** trade.
Most people know CNN was started by Ted Turner. What you may not know is Ted Turner went to Brown University, which was founded by a ****-trader. Does CNN now renounce Ted Turner? Does CNN believe slavery is ok? I sure don’t. These questions must be answered.
I'm all about being consistent. Isn't Yale named after a s l a v e trader? #CancelYale
Ah I see you are being intentionally obtuse and being incredibly rigid about the word "country" since the confederacy was never recognized as a sovereign state by other countries. Does belligerent faction sound better?
Notice how the thread used to be about the state flag of Mississippi, but now people are trying to go off topic because they know they don’t really have any legs to stand on.
