There it is again, reading comprehension is a dying concept I swear to god.
In no way did I suggest Floyd should have been killed. I pointed out that the person people rioted over was a genuinely bad person. Anyone who threatens to kill a pregnant woman at gun point is a bad person. Period, I don’t care how hard their lives might have been or what led to that point, that is not a man you should make into a martyr.
I absolutely think that who you’re fighting for matters. Yes, conservatives will spin things however they can. That doesn’t change the fact that the same reactionaries responsible for the riots as a result of George Floyd’s murder were completely unaware of something worse that happened. I remember seeing Breonna Taylor’s murder pop up in my feed within a few days if it happening. It’s not like they didn’t have the same tools to see exactly what I did, and yet the dumb motherfuckers did nothing for two months.
Now there’s the added bonus of the irrefutable fact that George Floyd was a bad person. When you give conservatives something real to use as ammunition it only bolsters their ability to twist the truth and push their racist agenda.
You can be mad at me all you want, I’m right. Was what happened to both of them a perfect display of the festering cancer within police forces across the United States? Not only that, but a display of how wrong minorities are treated by those forces? Absolutely, as I’ve never once stated or believed that Floyd should have been murdered.
