I asked if he fought against police brutality when Tony Tympa died (of course he hadn't heard of him)

Chef's kiss.

Excuse will likely be that it was not reported on in the news. Well, then are you going to stop following and blindly trusting this 'news' of yours? No, no, not that. Not to push any sort of agenda, but I have had this same response when asking people why they didn't care about Ukraine bombing Donetsk for 8 years. (I respect every opinion if it is the person's own, not copied from the media.)

I fantasize about trapping some of the nitwits here in Europe by denying police brutality. When they reply with George Floyd, I will say that if it had happened to a white person, they would not have known or cared. They will respond by saying that it does not or would not happen to white people. And then I say: in fact, it did, his name is Tony Timpa, and you neither knew nor care about it. (Unfortunately, I'm no longer at university so there is a limit to how aggressive and hostile I can be.)

Long story short he told me I was following white supremacist talking points and blocked me when I said that apparently white supremacy means not doing things that attract the cops.

I mean, after your color evolution in November 2020, it was inevitable that you would complete the process and become a white supremacist.

I still don't understand why people don't realize you can be against police brutality and hold cops accountable while also not worshipping people and making them saints

Division is what creates power. If you advance objectives everyone agrees with, like that Chauvin was wrong (which is 90%+ opinion), then you are not creating power for your movement. So you must shift the debate in such a way to force a large number of people to disagree with you, and you do that by being unreasonable.

This was also the explanation in an article about why BLM mostly focused on supposed victims who were terrible people and who were in the wrong, like Michael Brown, rather than more innocuous people like that cigarette salesman or Walter Scott.
