Newsweek ^ | April28. 2021 | Meggie Abendschein

"I can't believe this keeps happening."

I've heard white people say this with routine shock as we learned about the horrific killings of 20-year-old Daunte Wright and 15-year-old Ma'Khia Bryant.

We treat it like a checklist that we get to pat ourselves on the back for. Post a black square? Check. Read an anti-racism book? Check. Join the diversity committee at your workplace? Check. March in a protest? Check. Stand up to your racist aunt? Check.


Can't check any of those. Going out to the farm to work my @ss of to feed America. Check

When Black Lives Matter in Chicago, maybe they’ll matter elsewhere.

Dear Black People,

Go fix yourself.
I am not the problem.

Funny, if you assume that the white people she’s talking to are the white liberals with the BLM shirts, the title makes more sense.

If black lives don’t matter to other blacks why would they matter to me?

The knife wielding girl left the officer no choice.

Same as Michael Brown.

I have an idea for Meggie. She needs to immediately resign and hand over the ownership of her company to the first POC she sees walking down the street. Furthermore, she should move out of her house, condo or apartment in whatever tony section of Dallas she resides in and move into a property in the hood and give that resident the keys to her place. When that happens, I’ll take her seriously (maybe). Woke liberals are never effected by the policies they support, because they or their families are wealthy enough to insulate themselves from them.

White chick, telling other White people, how to suck up to Burn Loot Murder?

The bad thing about the whole "peak oil", "peak Hollywood", "peak"-whatever...

... is that there never seems to be a "peak stupidity".

Anything that beings “Dear _____ people” is intentionally inflammatory, hate based, and lacks any intelligence.

That right there is brilliant. Clear, succinct and to the point.

“white supremacist rallies are still happening”

I haven’t heard about any. Is this true, or just a Karen hallucination?

“181 Black people have been killed by police since George Floyd’s murder last year.”

That doesn’t seem even remotely likely.

It’s sad. The white liberal idiot lady who wrote that diatribe undoubtedly believes every word of it, yet there’s zero understanding on her part that it’s not the bogeyman of “racism” but rather the disproportionate rates of criminality among the black underclass that are ultimately the reason for these police encounters.

Kevin Samuels agrees. He’s something to watch. Brutal honesty at work.

The 2021 Thread. Do these Black Lives Matter to the author? There needs to be a shift in the Black Culture soon or the Dems plan for self genocide will be accomplished.

I see that Meggie, a brainwashed, "woke", self hating moron, capitalizes black, but not White.

What do all of these cases have in common, Meggie?

In each case the decedant initiated a chain of events, by their violent criminal actions, that resulted in their demise.

‘Judge not by skin color but by content of character’’....MLK
Congrats Woketards and BLM for doing the exact opposite. Don’t celebrate MLK while doing the reverse of his message.
