to all my singaporeans out there, here’s a thread on why you shouldn’t add onto the #BlackLivesMatter 
chain on ig stories
chain on ig stories
firstly, i’d like to start this w the fact that it is rlly rude & honestly disappointing, even heartbreaking to see. when i go onto ig and see these stories, they comes off as if the person who posted the story doesn’t care abt the situation. it might just be me, but i’d like to
-explain why i think this way. firstly, #BLACK_LIVES_MATTER isn’t just a trend to join. it’s not some random bandwagon to jump onto. you should only post about it if you care about it, and genuinely support it. there’s no point in posting abt it if you don’t care or if you just
-want to do it for the sake of it when you don’t care abt it. what’s the point? i don’t understand. why would you want to tag people who won’t “ break the chain “ as if it’s some random challenge? i don’t know if you guys remember the “ tag 10 beautiful people “ chain where you
-would tag people you think are beautiful to spread positivity. the #BlackLivesMatter chain is something similar to that, but much worse. in the other chain, some of the people who posted it were the same ones that brought others down which was very contradicting. however, this
chain is something similar to that, but much worse. in the other chain, some of the people who posted it were the same ones that brought others down which was very contradicting. however, this
-chain is of a much more serious topic. it’s literally about murder, and the unfair treatment of black people. i know some of you might be thinking “ oh but i’m not black so why should i care ” well it’s bc it’s a movement by everyone to support black ppl. if you were in
-their shoes, how would it feel to be discriminated & oppressed just because of your race? to be killed just bc of it? i think i’m going kinda off topic, so please just don’t join this chain. instead, you could post a story saying something like how the chain isn’t an effective
-way to spread awareness. so many of the people i’ve seen doing this stupid chain or “challenge” are the same people who use the n-word on the daily. (you can check one of my other threads to see why it shouldn’t be said by a non-black person) it’s really disgusting to see,
-honestly. so to sum this thread up, just don’t join this chain, use other ways to spread awareness such as signing petitions like https://www.change.org/p/mayor-jacob-frey-justice-for-george-floyd (please do sign, as it takes less thn a minute & we’re so close to the goal) thanks for reading & also stay safe :) #BLM
