Comment ~250 people (Score -1, Flamebait) 269

This huge problem which is the only valid reason to spread around what they claimed was a killer plague and take a whole bunch of other measures that will also lead to more problems like disbanding the police and more hating on yt.... leads to around 250 black deaths or 0.001% of the black deaths every year assuming every single police interaction that leads to death was completely unjustified. And we all know this because of an incident which has no known racial component at all except that the officer was white and the victim was black.

I like how this sites reporting like so many other places is completely detached from reality. If you just went by the stories here you'd think that the proBLM is some beaten down tiny faction under siege by a sea of hick MAGA racists when in reality everybody in their mother is posting a black swatch on their profile pic and lecturing everybody about BLM and the overwhelming amount of protests in RL are proBLM and anybody even dissenting a little from the narrative is attacked. Same way Twitter is supposedly overrun with nothing but even rightwingers and their bots when in reality the vast majority of Twitter is leftwing and there isn't any reason to believe they use bots any less than the rightwingers.

Uhhh....the 'communication' model is literally what everybody in the US uses today. Legitimate protests are usually planned and coordinated withe the authorities. They even have these things called permits. I don't know what this article is on about implying that American protests are all spontaneous and the police arrive and start shooting.
