[QUOTE="refineryworker05, post: 3475635, member: 66082"] I have not said anything about the condition of black people vs the 1960's and now, that is a complete fabrication. I mean not once have I said this the condition of black Americans now and this was the condition in the 1960's. I have said that the criticism that BLM faces is the exact same criticism that every single civil rights organization has always faced in America and that is without question historically accurate. The reality is BLM in the context of earlier civil rights organizations would be viewed as a mild milquetoast group. Objectively, the civil rights movement of the past was far more radical than BLM, was far more disruptive and angry, and there was far more violence surrounding civil rights organizations than BLM. You all are rewriting history to criticize BLM as anti cop or pro violence while upholding the civil rights icons without understanding that those exact same charges were leveled at every civil rights organizations or individual icon. Again, there was far more fear and anger towards MLK and what black people wanted in America, than simply calling for police reform. [/QUOTE]
