White American Morals and Values that Conveniently Disappear in the Presence of Racism
“I own guns to protect myself from the tyrannical government” conveniently turns into “violence isn’t the answer”
“I don’t trust the government” turns into “blue lives matter”
“Boston Tea Party!! Stick it to the British!!” turns into “how dare you burn down an iconic, American community pillar like Target?”
“Innocent until proven guilty! That undercover white cop that set fires and started ‘looting’ might not be doing exactly what is caught on camera!” turns into “Floyd wrote a bad check, and it looks like he just fainted in this graphic video that clearly shows his murder via cop!”
“heck yeah Super Bowl, let’s burn down a city, break local storefronts, light couches on fire, and fight with the police!” versus “wow the state is systematically murdering you using laws and infrastructure intended to protect you? Have you tried peacefully protesting via Yelp?”
“The government is watching, big brother, second amendment” and other conspiracy theories —> “she’s just doing her job by following you, the only black man in this Safeway” // “He saw a suspicious ‘thug’ walking down the street... skittles look dangerous at 7pm!”
a rare fan favorite and community call out
Asians communities: “racism is real and affects us”
