Dumb way to try to build support for your cause.

Especially considering Bernie Sanders is probably their best ally amongst presidential candidates. Their BLM subreddit went private after this happened with a message saying, "fuck Bernie Sanders"...

Idiots

I thought the guy who was getting bumped was incredibly patient. Rather than let the other 7000 people there listen to the guy they probably waited hours to hear, they decided that they were better off alienating those who might have likely been supporters. Someday they'll grow up a bit and learn that dialogue is a two way conversation.

That's not what it says now:


We are not the BLM. We are a sub aggregating links about BLM.
What do we have to do with BLM organization/media or the events in Seattle? Nothing. In fact, most of us are voting for Bernie or Jill Stein. Surprise.
Before you come at us shrieking about what "we" did to Bernie, stop, eat a Snickers, put your pitchforks and torches down and act like you have some sense.
We will reopen the sub when the brigade stops. You all should be ashamed.
-BLM team. All of which live very far from Seattle.

It's interesting how these uncentralized protest groups form, and when one segment within that community does something that another dislikes they are just excused.

They should have been escorted the fuck off the stage.. but no one wants to do that because then they would be called "Racist" or booed!

There was a great graphic on reddit showing a juxtaposition between 1960s white protesters screaming at blacks at an MLK rally and Bernie's, but I can't find it anymore. Very powerful images. You're good at finding stuffs, pk...go!

This?

No, similar to this one that I found in the Seattle Times, but it had been constructed better and depicted a more disturbing image from the Little Rock protests...
