Then why are 90% of the wokesters white?
And live in nice areas. Why not go live in the inner cities they cherish?
If they lived in inner cities they would not have positive views on black people.
Either that or blame racism for crime. No, you are right. It’s easy to cheer on riots from a nice safe mansion. And have zero sympathy for small business owners whose businesses get destroyed in those inner cities
"Inner city" just connotates where blacks live. I live in a city. If you live where the skyscrapers are, you live "downtown." Wokesters live "in town" where they try to avoid areas with "too many" blacks but are geographically close enough to get robbed.
They go into the inner city, eat at a posh restaurant, talk to the black waitress, and then leave. In their minds, they just saw everything in the city.
Sort of like when I was in Denver and the police were rounding up homeless people and putting them into buses for other parts of the state. I saw it happening, and yet everyone around me couldn't see the problem. Oh yeah, it was for the DNC get together.
And it infuriated me during the riots when nobody seemed to care about the people who lost their businesses or the people who live in those areas that now had no jobs due to businesses leaving. Or David Dorn. But yes lets exalt Floyd and Cheer on rooting thugs. Oh yea, and endlessly obsess over Jan 6
The way the media and the left framed the race riots during a pandemic made me immediately lose all sympathy for blm and also made me realize covid was a complete scam and farce. Have an outdoor barbecue with twelve people? YOU'RE KILLING GRANDMA! Have a protest with a hundred people? Oh that's fine, the virus is woke. It was obvious election-year shenanigans and blm crawled back into their crack dens by February as expected.
