  • I like Black Lives Matter because on its face it is a “no duh” statement (for most…)

    To me, it is pointing out the absurd disconnect between what (almost) everybody believes without question and the actual state of society and policing in particular. There’s something stronger to “we matter” vs “we matter too”, but I’m struggling to put it into words. For some reason, I feel like BLAM or something similar loses some impact.

    But that’s just in my head; as far as the success of a movement, you’re probably right. Also, if it was BLAM from the start, maybe I wouldn’t dislike it.


  • I took this as more like Mom humor (a la Dad jokes). Like a super cringe impersonation of ‘memeing’.

    I was kinda of excited to mogg my zoomers. I’d have to fake the post aspect cause I don’t have social media to post to.

    If it’s already some other thing then bummer. It really ruins it if my kids are like that’s old news dude. Saw something about 2022/3 somewhere :-( . Planned to work the ‘original plankster’ in there too.
