so we got:
- legit protestors
- anarchists who wanna start shit
- randos who opportunistically start shit
- undercover cops who plan to start shit
- boogalooers who came to start shit
- uniformed cops who go aggro regardless of anyone starting shit
and combos of those

the cops are starting most of the shit, but not all of it, and white people are starting most of the shit, but not all of it, and white cops who are boogalooers are starting the most shit because they very much want A Lot More Shit

boogalooers are 100% magas and nazis, and while some may claim to "hate cops", its only because they're trying to foment a race war, and they're doing their level best to escalate it. they only hate the "alphabet agencies" that threaten their terrorist cell planning

if you're a white person, and you're involved in these protests, just do one fuckin thing: let black people lead. do what they need you to do. not what seems fun or more extremist or cool or violent. Just let black people lead. for once in your fuckin life

its like BLM is Little Richard and white people are Elvis coming in and scooping everything up to take it for themselves and their own reasons. it's not a new phenomenon
