How about kneeling for all mankind, and standing for God? - Wharf Rat I don't worship mankind. I worship God. Catholics kneel for God to show we serve him. Look, I think we've all reached "peak virtual signaling". Kneeling accomplishes nothing, but make black people feel like they have forced white people into a ritual act of humiliation. That's a form of revenge and it will not bring the races closer together. All of us have had it with all the politically correct claptrap that is designed only to make narcissistic people feel good about themselves, but does nothing to make this country better, nor lift up poor communities. Obama had something to say about that.
"I do get a sense sometimes now among certain young people, and this is accelerated by social media, that the way of me making change is to be as judgmental as possible about other people and that's enough. Like if I tweet or hashtag about how you didn't do something right, or used the wrong verb, then I can sit back and feel pretty good about myself because: 'Man, did you see how woke I was? I called you out. That is not activism. That is not bringing about change. If all you're doing is casting stones, you are probably not going to get that far." - Obama This picture below says it all. Liberals are only interested in empty gestures. Little black squares on their Instagram accounts...as if that did anything but make the poster a self-involved infant. Liberal Congress people wearing African garb as if that made them woke. It's all self-serving bullshit and the black community understands that Democrats want another kind of obeisance and slavery from them. They'd rather have the dignity of a job and self-reliance. Pandering to them about defunding the police is just another empty gesture that is designed to make black communities less safe and destroy any chance those black kids have at a stable life to rise up out of poverty. We need real solutions based on facts and data, not on slogans, pandering, and virtue signals like kneeling and black squares. Liberals need to grow up and deal with the world as it is, not the utopian fantasy that they wished it was.
