    Not denying your claim but also not positive per se, just a question:

    Whats are the biggest injustices trump administration actively convoked against people with African American roots so far?

      I don’t understand how your question relates to my comment, you can go see the numbers of people who participated in BLM on Wikipedia its 15-26 million.

      I’m not playing dumb weasely games about oh is trump realy racist or not, fuck outta here with that. He was sued over racial discrimination in his private life and his policies are actively erasing nonwhite people from the history of the United States as we speak.

            Oh I can see the problem, kinda I think?

            I am seriously just unaware since I didn’t follow American news when BLM was happening.

            If I’m interested, what should I do different?

              There’s no good answer for this to someone who legitimately is curious but lacks even the most base knowledge of the topic. But the answer I give to seemingly good faith participants is to not come into an active conversation that’s already into the weeds and ask basic questions that could be answered by a simple Google search. Failure to do so will be seen as bad faith participation because this is the same tactic that bad faith participants use and it’s not worth the average person’s energy to dig through a profile to see whether or not they may be a good faith participant.

              TLDR - If you don’t put in the effort before asking a basic question about a controversial topic, people likely won’t put forth the energy to engage in a productive manner when it appears you have not done so as well.
