You can’t stop the virtue signal
I’ve been noticing it a lot lately. And, today, I decided to document all the virtue signalling I am subjected to. This started at about 8 am this morning and by 9:15, I saw all of this:
Wanting to be left out of all of it is not good enough.

I’m conflicted about this. I’m real happy that police brutality is getting attention, and am sympathetic to black Americans who feel (for good reason) that they’re treated as lesser Americans. But, a lot of that stuff you posted is virtue signaling instead of conviction & action.

I’ve noticed the same. YouTube is dedicated whole sections of their home landing page to the signal.
Odd how they de-rank content that shows minority small businesses being harmed by the same small group of ‘peaceful rioters’ Google is encouraging. Just like ’68, riots are going to paint a picture that a generation will remember.
If evil major corporations had a plan to hurt and destroy minorities, would it look any different than what they are doing now?

I think that they are digging a whole that they won’t be able to get out of.

If it was police brutality I would be all over it. Ever case BLM tries to gain traction is a criminal killed in the commission of a crime.
Every one of them. It like they want a special class to be above the law.
This will not end well.

I saw it reported several days ago that BLM had been endorsed by the Communist Party USA. So shouldn’t BLM DISAVOW an organization that promotes a system of slavery and mass murder? If there is no disavowal, then they are incredibly ignorant of recent history or actually they are supporting a totalitarian system and being their “useful idiots” as Lenin called his duped Bolsheviks.
“We must hate. Hatred is the basis of communism. Children must be taught to hate their parents if they are not communists.” – Vladimir Ilyich Lenin
“Bolshevism committed the greatest human slaughter of all time. The fact that most of the world is ignorant and uncaring about this enormous crime is proof that the global media is in the hands of the perpetrators.”

“Ever case BLM tries to gain traction is a criminal killed in the commission of a crime.” –Paul B
Yes! And two notable ones on their list, Trayvon Martin and Michael Brown were determined to be criminals killed in lawful self defense who received JUSTICE by juries in their communities and by subsequent investigations of the Obama Justice Dept.
Also anyone supporting BLM should be asked why Mariam Carey is not on their list. She was an UNARMED young black lady with a young child who was shot dead when her vehicle crashed into a barricade in front of the White House! Now why is that?

It’s pervasive in the workplace too. My company has officially changed their logo on all social media outlets, started an anti-racism initiative, officially declared support for BLM, and set up new hiring quotas for Black minority candidates (not Asian or Hispanic).
Unofficially, the internal message boards are flooded with book and movie recommendations (the same recommendations I see every time I open any streaming service – they are literally rebroadcasting ads).
I guess I’m a deviant, because all their virtue signaling makes me want to move in the opposite direction out of spite (an impulse that is actually opposite to my normal way of looking at the world and treating people).

I had to delete my Patreon support of a gun channel because of this B.S.

You will be made to care. What if you engage in any speech that isn’t SJW approved double plus good speech? You risk deplatforming, doxxing, even being fired. That has happened and will continue. Rolfe’s stepmom got fired from her job simply for speaking up on his behalf, which she is perfectly entitled to do.

So the “noose” in Bubba Wallace team garage was another hoax. How many FBI agents did it take to figure out that the rope garage door pull was in a loop since months before the garage was assigned?
….
Wait for it.
15 useless FBI “special” agents.

They dealt those race cards — liberally — right off the bottom of the deck, didn’t they. Plus bonus virtue signalling.

We must ban the The Ashley Book of Knots because …think of the grown fucking adults who are melting down over jack shit.

A “noose”, presumably for the purpose of a hanging, would be a specific type of slip knot. A pull rope for a door would be a non-slip knot so that it would function as a loop to grab and pull the door up or down. The immediate leap to racist hysterical accusations before an investigation should be “walked back” to say the least by all those purveyors, but I doubt they, the media, Bubba Wallace and NASCAR, will.

Black Lives Matter is a radical Marxist organization that has documented ties to other radical Marxist organizations.

@Lawrence Person, you are absolutely right about BLM. As Lenin called his Bolsheviks, there are “useful idiots” using supposed “systemic racism” as a pretext for their terrorist, Communist agenda.
