idk theyd probably bring it up in a joke
depends on if aaron mcgruder was still helming it
BLM would have at LEAST an entire episode. Complete with looting the wal mart, maybe rooftop koreans or that kenosha dude.
It isn't actually boondocks without him. Just a skinwalker.
Boondocks during that time would mostly be about the MAGA crowd and less about Black people. Which is why it why all political issues were centered around mostly leftist black people when it aired under Obama.
So they'd tackle George Floyd, but it would mostly likely center around how the right wing media desperately tried to portray George Floyd as a villain (with the vast majority of the accusations being false look up fact checking sites) and the cops as heroes, but then went to complete radio silence when the cops were found guilty.
I'm guessing that Tom would be the one who would believe the lies, Riley would defend them while assuming they're true (citing poverty/the hood as the root of the problems), Huey would debate that poverty does not excuse everything, Grandpa would be the first to mention that the media should not be trusted because he has the experience and Huey would then dive in head first, uncovers everything and ends with the same message grandpa had but more catered towards this/the new generation.

That sounds a bit too serious. It would most likely have a funny scenario or else it isn't Boondocks
The jokes are always in between the message, not the message itself. They can write it to be funny. I'm not a comedian.
>center around how the right wing media desperately tried to portray George Floyd as a villain
but he was. he was a scumbag through and through. Uncle Ruckus probably would have commented the truth; "If dat chubby Black would've just done what them wonderful white men said, ...well, yes he'd still be incarcerated, but alive."
btw, here's the toxicology report done on him after he died. the fentanyl in his system was 4 times the known lethal limit, and was even higher than the overdose he was treated for the previous week.
>overdose he was treated for the previous week.
The guy was a ticking bomb.Health issues didn't help.
>but he was
Drug usage doesn't make anyone a scumbag.
There were talks about him putting a gun to a baby which was completely fabricated.
The only things he was guilthy was were things he had already gone to prison to which means that the public (you) shouldn't have been tricked into believing that his past actions have any relevance in this case.
>B-b-but the fentanyl
Did you know that a couple months prior to Floyd, Angel Hernandez died because they kneeled on his neck for 14 minutes and the year prior it was Tony Timpa?
Drugs had nothing to do with it. Newsflash: people die when you cut off the bloodflow to their head or oxygen intake for too long.
Reflection of modern society: Ruckus would fall for the lies and desception of the right-wing media and blame it all on Floyd (because that's what you, modern society, are doing).
Well if a drug addict can't maintain his body he can't really be trusted to help maintain society either. Same with how a repeat offender will probably commit more crimes thus wasting everyone's time and resources. Fentanyl played a part in Floyd's death, the cops were unfairly punished to satiate an animalistic mob, and the riots only served to cripple black communities even further.
>Well if a drug addict can't maintain his body he can't really be trusted to help maintain society either
Thanks for your opinion, but nobody asked. We were discussing his death.
>Fentanyl played a part in Floyd's death
The 2 other cases showed that he would have died even without the Fentanyl so your point is moot.
>the cops were unfairly punished to satiate an animalistic mob
Also not true. They were ignoring the safety of the suspect who was already incapable of moving. They should have cuffed his feet first IF they were really that afraid of him escaping the scene and then give him room to breathe. It was reckless behavior especially when considering that someone else had died 2 months prior.
>to satiate an animalistic mob
How were they animalistic?
>the riots only served to cripple black communities even further
They really didn't just like the Watts riots didn't cripple the black community. If anything it helped the black community as talks about CRT and reparations have been ramped up considerably after that.
It has caused not only the black community, but the white and other communities to actually look at why those communities are developing slower than other communties while disregard the usual racist rethoric of "well, it's like that because they're black" that has been plagued non-black communities since the slavery days.
>They really didn't just like the Watts riots didn't cripple the black community. If anything it helped the black community
I suppose the growing threat of living in a food desert for inner-city populations, historic rates of firearm ownership, and general breakdown of dialogue between different peoples is a testament to that huh?
All of those things were already happening before the riots, what the hell are you talking about?
But whereas the majority of the population used to be able to say that blacks are getting the short end of the stick because they're lazy now we are able to point at things like Red lining.
Look, those are old concepts for those in the know but they used to be able to ignore it but people wnated to end the riots ASAP so they started to listen and then they wanted to debunk systematic racism, but couldn't.
Which means that not MLK, but Malcolm X was right all along. There can be no peaceful revolution.
Also the increase in gun ownership was not to protect themselves from other black people.
It was the continuation of the Black Panthers when they said that every black person should own a gun to protect themselves from the police.
Hence why:"High-profile cases of police brutality also drove many Black Americans to take their safety into their own hands as it became clear they can't trust law enforcement, Douglas Jefferson, senior vice president of the National African American Gun Association (NAAGA), told Axios."
So again: you don't know what you're talking about.
>things were already happening before the riots, what the hell are you talking about?
You gaslighting fricker, no they weren't. Mom and pop shops were not being shut down by Thieves
>You gaslighting fricker
Nice projection, bawd
> the growing threat of living in a food desert for inner-city populations,
>historic rates of firearm ownership, and
>general breakdown of dialogue between different peoples
THESE things were already happening
The straws you're hgrasping at existed BECAUSE the political climate of that time did not allow for dialogue as the majority of the right wing population wanted blacks to shut up about their problems, because it was all their fault and when they blamed the government their argument got strawmanned into "there they go blaming whitey". That was the political climate between 2005 and 2020 and it directly contributed to the BLM protests as there would have no protests if we had taken all the cries about police brutality serious, but instead we rteards like you who only sought reasons for it to continue instead of looking for solutions to make it stop. homosexual.
>There can be no peaceful revolution.
Because there are no peaceful Black folk.
>Drug usage doesn't make anyone a scumbag.
Are you or anyone dear to you on any prescription drugs? They would be scumbags according to you.
What you mean is that excessive use can make someone act like a scumbag, but that applies to EVERYTHING
4x more than enough of a drug to kill you from overdose probably counts as excessive use, moron.
So drug use itself does not make one a scumbag? Duly noted.
>4x more than enough of a drug to kill you from overdose probably counts as excessive use
But that also doesn't make one a scumbag. You wither are a scumbag or not, drugs and alcohol only bring that quality out much faster.
And Floyd wasn't a scumbag. An EX-criminal sure, but nobody in the community, those who actually knew him, called him a scumbag.
Illegal drug use you disingenuous wienersucker
>And Floyd wasn't a scumbag
He put his gun on a pregnant woman's womb you stupid frick, he is the very definition of the damn word
>He put his gun on a pregnant woman's womb you stupid frick

Using illegal does not make one a scumbag either.
Or are you implying that everybody who uses weed was a scumbag until it became legal? And then when it became legal people stopped being scumbags? That's an incredibly brainlet way of viewing the world, you know.

No it really does and im tired of pretending otherwise
The amount of money we spend on antidrug campaigns the frickers who knowingly give money to the cartel that ensure those monsters remain in power
>Or are you implying that everybody who uses weed was a scumbag until it became legal?
Yes actually as they fueled violence and human trafficking along with the gun running.
>You going to have to do better than that
You made the claim of her being pregnant. Now show a police rapport that supports that claim.
>The amount of money we spend on antidrug campaigns
You do realzie that we won't need those anymore when drugs are fully legal, right?
Legalizing drugs would also allow us to produce and sell quality drugs and regulate usage, just like we do with alcohol.
The taxes we could levy would also provide for more than enough to help those severly addicted whilst also fattening the treasure for a plethora of other things.
>Yes actually as they fueled violence and human trafficking along with the gun running.
Poverty fuels violence. You can take away all the drugs and people would just resort to alcohol or stealing ebcause they still needed a way to escape the missery they're in.
The reason the government allowed the crack epidemic was to keep the population docile.
People strung on drugs are too doped up to riot or make something of their life.
Do you think that the BLM riots would have happened if they were all crackheads? Of course not. crackheads would have been to busy shitting themselves on the streets and not caring whether or not someone in their community got killed, because they would have a needed fix and they would have needed it fast. But the govenremnt had to step in at one point, because middle and upper class
white people started to use it too. And a society of middle and upper class crackheads is destined to fall.
You gave a bullshit source after claiming it was proof. Come on now
>You do realzie that we won't need those anymore when drugs are fully legal, right?
Yeah we will because there will always be a black marker for cheaper drugs laced with poisonous crap
>The taxes we could levy would also provide for more than enough to help those severly addicted
Oh great more fricking taxes, as if we weren't healing the severely addicted now who looked at our ads of zombies shuffle with rotting flesh and went
>thats fine
>Poverty fuels violence
Only half right, The cartels dont live in poverty they they just want more money. Because the fundamental fact in this world is simple:
You can never have enough money
You know this is true Bezos and Gate have enough money to take scrooge mcduck money bathes, Doesnt mean they'll stop. Just like the Cartels will never stop so long as money and power is involved.
>crack epidemic
Theres going to be more than just a crack epidemic
You never saw what they did to China. Opium made them the weak old man of asia and those drugs were perfectly legal at the time. Just like slavery was legal, we could solve human trafficking if we legalize slavery, FRICKING NO. Some things are banned for a reason.
>People strung on drugs are too doped up to riot or make something of their life.
All the more reason it should be banned then and not allowed.
>BLM riots would have happened if they were all crackheads?
Yeah but it wouldnt be for BLM it'd be to steal shit like all crackheads do to pay for their next fix.
> And a society of middle and upper class crackheads is destined to fall.
Yeah thats why letting these drugs in are a bad idea
I dont understand why you think legalizing it would make things better
>Yeah we will because there will always be a black marker for cheaper drugs laced with poisonous crap
Yeah we have a real big issue with people buying bathtub moonshine and blinding themselves because they're too cheap to buy malt liquor right. Lots of laced black market cigarettes flooding the market right now eh
Moonshine is illegal bro
>Lots of laced black market cigarettes flooding the market right now
Actually yes both laced and unlaced
>Lots of laced black market cigarettes flooding the market right now eh
I would wait and see if the menthol ban happens. Because we'll probably see a wave of it then.
Theres a blackmartet for cigarettes now,

Glad to see a based anon in here. Don't feed the trolls, brother.

ha ha holy shit what a moron
ruckus is spiritually white
He wishes
Mcgruder would probably take a similar(although maybe more respectful) stance that he did with the R Kelly episode. Point out that yes police brutality is a problem but damn was Floyd just a bad person to turn into a martyr. Although I would need a better idea on his current opinions on BLM to say for sure.
on BLM as awhole?
He is sorta a soft Ruckus.
Buncha brain dead Black folk burning down their own neigborhoods, donating to thieves who walk off with the money, and the whole "defund the police" bullshit has backfired as everyone not in a liberal city said it would.
it backfired in that police ended up getting more funding across the board even in liberal cities
how can something backfire if it was never implemented in the first place
It helps my agenda more to claim it did backfire.
Nah, R Kelly and Floyd are apples and oranges. Criticizing R Kelly is for the sake of cleaning house and respecting the black girls that he creeped on. Criticizing Floyd, no matter how much of an butthole he was, only serves to deflect criticism of corrupt cops.
If Boondocks were to criticize anything about BLM, it'd be the new BLM Foundations enriching their execs with millions in mindless virtue-signaling donations, white people shelling out money to anti-racism gurus, black businesses being shutdown by law enforcement for the lockdowns, etc. Oakland is suffering majorly right now, you know.
>corrupt cops
stop reading cnn

Floyd pull a gun on a pregnant women
Apparently that's an accomplice's doing? No doubt he was a bad fellow who made bad choices. Doesn't make habitual abuse and egregious mistreatment of minorities justified.
>Authority not following protocol is ok as long as it just happen to harm by luck people that i can dig past dirt about
Neck kneeling was a standard police protocol across the entire USA for decades. While you can argue if that was a good policy or not, the fact is nobody cared until Floyd died, upon which half the country suddenly got selective amnesia and pretended that the cops were doing something outrageous and unique, not standard practice.
>Neck kneeling was a standard police protocol across the entire USA for decades.
How does that justify doing that to a guy that was literally screaming "I can't breathe?" If those cops just paid attention to his plea and went easy on him when they already subdued him, everything would had been fine.
NTA, but the police thought Floyd was overdosing. The guy was already shouting "I CAN'T BREATHE" in the car before they let him out.
He was a dead man walking. You try taking the same amount of fentanyl in your system and then come back here to post
And he very much was a bad person
you morons won't make it.
Doctors have reported that even though he was high on fentanyl, his body was used to the dosage he was taking. Not every time you take fenty, you'll die immediately. the knee worsen his respiratory system.
That's like strangling a fat guy and you blame him for being too fat to handle it
Doctors have also reported that he died from fentanyl, none of you are prepared to take the same dose. As you know the consequences for that action
>none of you are prepared to take the same dose
Again, not what the autopsy said
https://int.nyt.com/data/documenthelper/6992-george-floyd-full-autopsy/4c5bdf52fbbd775ce156/optimized/full.pdf
He was drugged up, but it wasn't enough to kill him that quickly.
Again, you are not prepared to take the same dose because you're aware of the outcome.
>Again, you are not prepared to take the same dose because you're aware of the outcome.
and again, not everyone has the same maintenance to fentanyl. Bad argument to make here.
Neck Compression =/= Strangulation. It also noted that with the combination of his bad health, the knee to the neck also caused his death
Learn to read
Thats what the autopsy said though?
I've always found the argument weird. Supposedly the guy was so overdosed on a tranquilizing painkiller that he died from it but at the same time was also belligerent enough that he needed to be put in a chokehold by a half dozen guys?
Thats because its clear you never met a drug addict in your life.
Because thats par the norm for crackheads
The notion that criminals either former or current should have no protection under Rule of Law or human rights is probably the most disturbing part of Right Wing ideology
It’s wild how much they scorn 3rd world countries yet demand a 3rd world criminal justice system
It’s wild how they want random individuals to be judge, jury, and executioner but also live in terror of “false accusations” from women and getting “canceled”
Those types of people love tyranny, even if they scream otherwise.
They just want to be the tyrants.
They think that just because they're white the fully tyrannized officers won't pick on them
Obsession with crime and punishment is tenant of fascism
Fascism is great.
Even original Superman was accused to be one man Gestapo
Subhuman filth who try to violently deprive others of their wealth like muggers, burglars and tax collectors deserve no rights or protections, killing them makes society safer.
Why do you assume most right wing extremists believe the law should even exist. You're trying to conflate several different groups.
Behold
The true form of the right winger: an anarchist
I thought anarchists were communists on steroids?
Yes, there should be no authority above the individual, family or community.
>It’s wild how they want random individuals to be judge, jury, and executioner
I mean, when you're being mugged/burgled/attacked/witnessing an attack, there's not much need for a prolonged trial to determine guilt.
Unless you meant "these people believe in lynch mobs," not "people being attacked should do everything to ensure the attacker's well-being"
Stop simping for criminals.
These are the most pathetic chain of comments I have ever seen.
Floyd was career criminal who died of Fentanyl overdose, cops could do nothing to save his live. The entire thing was media run circus to destabilize the country and make Trump look weak for the election year. Black were and always will be nothing but tools for the Democrats.
There is no point to cry about every bad apple. Especially since the summer of love did nothing, but increase black on black violence and make law enforcement even more inefficient in blue states.
Please go frick right back to your ghetto ridden shitholes.
I don't give a damn whether he was a druggie or whatever, the fact of the matter is that he was fricking murdered by a man who is supposed to PROTECT people.
The long arm of the law is a guiding hand that turns into a fist if need be
Since the other cops were non-white, including Asian, the show would make Asians racist

Boondocks threads stopped being viable once the show ended.

So, how about the boondocks?
well thats basically what the show is
oh please, like the /misc/acks aren't doing the exact shame shit. when are you Black folk going to learn that you're both vermin?
Serious answer black people get mad
Police force strikes so there is no police
There are riots, stores get destroyed, white people get paranoid
It's all concentrated in the town Huey lives
Then it gets solved by a little girl lost crying the the middle of shit going down or something
Huey narrates the ending
Ends by mentioning that while all if this was going down 60 black men died of gang violence in the rest of the country, 200 died from not having access to healthcare, there were 12 suicides and 30 overdoses on drugs and not a single one of them made it to the news *ends credits song*
I AM THAT STONE THAT THE BUILDER REFUSED
>and not a single one of them made it to the news *ends credits song*
You're forgetting the part where the black family man/ community man is killed by other black people and it is barely a blip. The community's local businesses are sacked & forced to shutter permanently cause insurance isn't a panacea and this drives the area into poverty which exuberates

I suppose the growing threat of living in a food desert for inner-city populations, historic rates of firearm ownership, and general breakdown of dialogue between different peoples is a testament to that huh?
>I suppose the growing threat of living in a food desert for inner-city populations.
I would not say less of a growing threat and more like a worsening problem, especially since fast food prices are high enough that it would be cheaper to get a prepared meal at Kroger than MCD's and that would last you longer.Plus those prepared Kroger fried chicken is way better than KFC.
Don't forget how all the grocery stores are shutting down due to constant theft and property damage putting them in the red.
>You're forgetting the part where the black family man/ community man is killed by other black people and it is barely a blip
More people pushing their politics. When has The Boondocks ever talked about things like that? Boondocks doesn't do whataboutism. At most, Huey would the situation that led to this like when he talks about the prison industrial complex. Boondocks isn't this blackpilled, redpilled, purplepilled or whatever fricking pills you people are talking about show. The shit you're talking about is something Ruckus would say.
This homies forgetting the lessons of "homie moment" and "homie synthesis"
This Black person thinks the Boondocks is nothing but a series of skits to mock black people
No homie I was just pointing out how Boondocks frequently made a point about Black people's constant self-destructive behavior. Like the episode about Soul Food and Huey chiming in about how it was killing them. homie moment is just the most infamous things Huey talked about.
They were critiquing black people's issues (of which some were pet peeves of black people like fat food and R kelly) but Huey also critiqued the government and white peoppe whenever and where ever he could. So the prison complex would def. be mentioned or did you forget Huey's very first scene?
That first scene was spot on, just look at the reactions in this thread.
So while the Boondocks would lose its right leaning audience, I think that it would be very in the spirit of the Boondocks to provide more social commentary without picking sides while you're opting for them pick the white side.
I think The Itis is a perfect example of how this show flies over people's heads here.
YES, Huey was critical of the poor nutritional value of soul food, but the episode also shows how soul food exists as a result of blacks being slaves and forced to work with the shittiest supplies imaginable and how rich white interests continue to perpetuate that cycle for their personal enrichment. The episode literally ends with Wuncler doing an "All According to Keikaku" smirk for the camera for fricks sake.
Yet people here just look at the episode and go "lol stupid nigs"
NTA but part of black comedy is literally mocking serious topics. Hell, the reason people think the boondocks mock mostly black people is cause the white people were just sheep most of the time.
>Mom and pop shops were not being shut down by Thieves
I would disagree there, thievery played a role since those shops would have been bleeding but the wounds would be manageable. The looting effectively was cutting the brahial artery.
It's a vicious cycle that destroys everyone but there is not really a solution unless you start only selling canned goods behind locked cabinets or some other extreme.
Except the looting was just paid actors by the alt right looking to stop an organic movement looking for equality in justice. CRT blew the lid off this and now the alt right is after that too. Shutting down entire schools just to keep the truth hidden
>Shutting down entire schools just to keep the truth hidden
Nah, they'd rather just teach kids that slavery was awesome
It did teach valuable job skills which lead to higher salary and promotions
You know what the funniest thing about that is. Its that for the last twenty something years thats the exact same rhetoric African Americans have been saying about the Ottoman Empire and their slavery
>oh look they actually teach worthwhile skills
>they allow them to rise in ranks
Now that its being done in Florida, these same people are shitting bricks.
You know what's even funnier. Those African Americans don't actually exist and you just made them up. You're probably shitting basedbricks after I pointed this out and spit the dragon dildo out your mouth as you did a doubletake on my truthbomb
They do, you see them all the time if you discuss world history
Sorry you're a brainlet
The ones who think the Ottoman Empire's version of slavery was 'good' are Hoteps and they should NEVER be taken seriously.
I remember Gazi's Island
Wrong, it was so their masters could where them out to companies as skilled labor and make more off them.
You really think a black guy in late 19th century America got a good paying job?

Other races watched boondocks besides white people and yes I was agreeing with you as it does not solely mock black people.
>I fixed it a bit, because I've never heard a black person my age say that.
People have varying opinions on different issues. The white people in Boondocks could have literally been replaced with sheep and nothing in the show would change much.
It isn't?
Black people can't even make fun of each other without morons going, "See! Black people agree with my racism!" It's why Chappelle quit his show.

Tell me
If you didn't have breakfast today how would you be feeling right now?
You're still just name calling. Are we trying to have a conversation or are you just here to spazz out?
Tom, you dont want a conversation. Nor are you smart enough to have one.
This isn't a joke theres no punchline and obviously im insulting you but its still the truth. You're simply not intelligent enough to discuss anything worthwhile. If you had a conversation in the healthy triple digits that would be another matter entirely.
Yeah, you're done. Well, you never really got started.
Go take a nap Tom, you're done here
Very Pro-BLM obviously, depending on how it coincided with the production/
People act like McGruder would be against them burning shit down but he'd never be one to shy away from the idea that wrecking shit is a legitimate political action and a lot of the BLM shit coincides with the ending of the MLK episode where the Black Community bands together to protest getting the short end of the stick, including shit like black celebrities going on strike. I could also see plots where Wuncler co-opts BLM to shill whatever bullshit and Cee-Lo's character showing p to grift everyone out of their cash saying he'll fight the good fight then he goes and buys a mansion. Probably ending with Huey being bitter that they had some good momentum going then everyone got distracted. Hell they could probably even just have a whole season of different episodes from BLM.
>Initial outbreak of BLM, probably start a little after Floyd dies and it's already established maybe even frame it like the Obama episode where it's a bunch of vignettes
>Episode about the Freemans in the middle of a protest that devolves into a riot and how they all handle it. Huey wants to guide the riot, Riley wants to loot, Grandad wants to go the frick home shit he just came here to pick up some AOC lookin' cutie pies...he don't mind some horse teeth so long as they don't kick......Ruckus is out there trying to counter protest only to get beat down by the cops
>Trial of Betty Van Huesen, modeled after the Kyle Rittenhouse trial. Huey is impartial knowing she'll get off but views her as obviously someone who went there for a confrontation but so did the dumbasses she shot. Grandad/Riley are low info viewers who think she went full rambo on a crowd of protestors, and Ruckus thinks she's a superhero.
>An episode all about Wuncler molding activists into the perfect tools to push whatever company he's backing, then turning them on eachother once he's done.
There's a lot to work with here.
BLM first started with Eric Garner IIRC, not Floyd
Wow, someone who actually understands The Boondocks and doesn't misinterpret it as anti-black.
i always feel like I'm on bizzaro world whenever I read boondocks threads on Cinemaphile.
I always find my self second guessing my memories of the show cause all discussion acts as though boondocks existed to shit on black people for being black, and act as propoganda to espouse the idea that racism, on the rare occasion it exists, is totally justified, and that uncle ruckus was the voice of reason on the show or something
you live in a time where every single opinion you read not coming from Cinemaphile is gonna be super pro black and suck their dicks like it's a competition. every single thing you see that's even slightly deviating from that is looked to as a "far right" icon. not to mention Cinemaphile is famous for blowing things out of proportion.
don't forget the one about BLM organizers spending a shit ton of money on mansions and frivolous garbage
>People act like McGruder would be against them burning shit down
he would be against them looting
he prison episode ended with the immates failing to negotiate because they wanted supid shit
AS wouldn't allow it.
>Anon brings up how BLM used the money donated to buy mansions, land, and give money to their family
>libshit cowards instantly stop talking
Every fricking time
>fake news
What's there to talk about? The morons who gave money to build the wall and how drumphf used the money donated to buy mansions, land, and give money to their family

BLM isn’t an organization. It’s a movement. There is no boss or council of BLM controlling everything.
There’s a few orgs that use the brand and that’s about it.
Well that doesn't change the fact that BLM organization members are heavily corrupt and pocket donated money to spend for their own selfish uses. If so many people like that are just using the "brand" it leads credence to the whole movement being rotten.
The easiest way to defang and co-opt a social reform movement is to flood it with money and tempt the people at the top with it. The people playing the long game are much better at it than you or me are.
So I don't necessarily dismiss the concerns of the majority just because their self-appointed leaders were bought off (kind of how trad larpers always ignore their darlings being bought off by Israel and come up with cope excuses).
Its flooded with establishment money because it serves the establishments agenda like most other progressive movements.
It also has the benefit of being the first organization
"Defund the police" does not serve the establishment. The police are the strong arm extension of the establishment. They will always be there to take their side and be weaponized against you for money.
Yes, it would, pulling police out from an area and the area spiraling down leads to needing more police in the area. This strengthens control and can lead to centralizing business in an area due to local competition dying off due to increased crime.
Wrong. They'll pull out of those areas completely and all you'll be left is homeless people fricking inside a rundown McDonald's. You might have small gas stations that are consistently robbed, but no big developers build in those areas.
The police serve corporate interests. It's always going to be that way.
Oh, you're right. I forgot that once the small shops are out that the bigger stores leave too.
>The police serve corporate interests. It's always going to be that way.
Sadly that does not seem to be a uniquely American issue half the time except for our profit prisons.
>the bigger stores leave too.
They are leaving though
That is what I was saying. Little guys die and then the big boys frick off cause the local pop robs them more. Though you're right, they are leaving regardless due to some areas just not being worth it.
Yes and seems ineffectual. Almost makes me think fining people would get them to commit less crime over a cell.
I'd say our police issue here is worse since if you looked at them like a military, they'd have the 4th biggest budget in the world
All this social unrest harms small independent businesses more than the governments corporate buddies.
Left wingers claim to have a monopoly on anarchism but you can't steal everyone's property and manage it for the 'collective' without a state or state like organization.
Small mom and pop stores aren't the establishment. Again, police serve money. Who do you think has more money?
>Small mom and pop stores aren't the establishment.
You shouldn't reply to posts you didn't read. Small stores are competition to the corporate buddies of the government which is why they've been regulated and taxed more for years. The BLM thugs just help accelerate the process.
Your original argument is that BLM only serves interests of the establishment.
Obviously that's wrong. Defund the police goes against their interests. I don't know what bullshit you believe, but cops have always been on the side of whoever has more money. We need to get rid of the strong arm used by corporations and ultra wealthy
It obviously harms the small businesses more and the police will come swooping back in whenever they decide its necessary.
>We need to get rid of the strong arm used by corporations and ultra wealthy
Pretty damn suspicious you leave out the state which ought to be utterly eliminated along with its supporters. Corporations only exist because of the government which gives them legal rights and special treatment, they're a secondary problem.
>There is no boss or council of BLM controlling everything
Their leaders bought houses in gated communities with the organization's funds, hence why nobody takes them seriously anymore
>Their leaders
Those aren't their leaders. Those are fund raiser fricks. They don't LEAD
Name 10 things they've lead in person.
It 100% is an organization these are the people who created the hashtag in the first place
Those are the leaders theyre the damn founders on top of it.
You still haven't named a single thing they've lead. Your argument fell apart pretty fast when people started fact checking you. Nothing against the law about buying a house. Link the account that started the first hashtag. Shouldn't be hard since you know so much
The organization itself moron, they're and i quote >a lead organizer of the protest movement t
You haven fact checked shit you just moved the goal post.
>name every time they took a shit
But heres the actor before they found out she was a piece of shit
https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2016/03/14/where-is-black-lives-matter-headed
Here even the official site pats themselves on the back
https://blacklivesmatter.com/8-years-strong/
That's not the first hashtag. That's a website that came after it. Link the egg not the chicken. You made the false claim that they came up with the hashtag. Now back up your false claim
That is the first hashtag morons, its even discussed in the articles.
But since you claim theres another before it, please post it.
You won't because youre a worthless coward
Youre the one making the claims. I'm just asking for facts. You still haven't linked the first time the hashtag was used and how it was an account owned by these people that don't lead the blm movement
>links two articles including from the BLM official site
>With the name of everyone involved including the one who stole money
>you claim those are not the first ones
Well then clearly you can prove me wrong can't you? But see
>You won't because youre a worthless coward
>official
Yeah there is, they bully other smaller BLM and it got so bad they created their own organizations rather than be under the same umbrella, just in time too because if they had stayed they would have dealt with the fallout.
Tells me all i know that you never follow there on whats happening after an incident occurs
Because you're a lazy frick that only likes drama.
You know in a way we're all just acting out the show in this thread
>this entire thread is actually just anons method acting and hoping McGruder will see it and hire them as extras for a live action adaptation of the Boondocks
Uncle ruck did a fundme for a live action and it didn't go so good
>pic
Intellectual cowardice is truly something to be feared. The possibility of being wrong frightens people so much they become paralyzed.
Usually a sign of child abuse. If people become accustomed to being hit for doing wrong things they become terrified of being wrong
ok, thats seriously dark, I just though it was Yuri and demoralization brainwashing
What you said is not entirely stupid, and effect of child abuse on morphing people into buttholes is strong. But it's not all that relevant her, since people don't like being wrong because that means you have to re-examine chunks of your worldview and adjust your behaviors accordingly, and that's a huge stress/responsibility.
There's also that people only want to see opinions that conform to their own views. Even willing to take something with it's own message and mangle it to fit their own.
homie it's a hashtag. you don't need to post a hashtag, or join an organization, or be involved with a random website to be part of a protest movement.
do you think everyone who took part in a blm protest was aware of these people's existence?
>moves goal post again to its just a hashtag after being unable to find proof
Lol lmao
>homie it's a hashtag
Woah there son i never implied it wasn't. I said the organization that is BLM including the creator of the hashtag were corrupt pieces of shit who used donated money to live lavish lifestyles instead of giving that money to the community and victims family as claimed until they were called out on it and some not even then.
and what i'm trying to explain to your feeble brain is that the organization called BLM is not an official organization because there cannot be an official organization by definition because it is a social movement and not a political party.
>is not an official organization
And im saying it is an organization by virtue of being the most funded and most recognizable AND having been the creators of said hashtag.
> because it is a social movement
The frick does that have to do with anything? Their corruption is whats being called into question.
>The frick does that have to do with anything?
BLM (the orginization) has nothing to do with BLM (the movement), as evidenced by the fact that BLM protests around the country are being independently organized all the time by grassroots activists with zero connection to the website you keep shilling. The fact you keep trying to attribute credibility to that organization shows that you fell for the exact same grift as the people who paid for their mansions.
>BLM (the orginization) has nothing to do with BLM (the movement),
OH REALLY? You think the organization that gets money from the people who leads the protests, who created the phrase has nothing to do with the Movement?
Please explain that moronic logic to me. I'm all ears
>with zero connection
See now you're full of shit since said grassroots had to sue this main chapter
https://www.theguardian.com/world/2022/sep/02/black-lives-matter-grassroots-lawsuit-global-foundation
Because they had questions about the money and they were being locked out the main BLM social media accounts.

Yes thank you for admitting that, You are clincally moronic yes especially after all your zero Connection you spewed.
let me put it this way you fricking moron.
I start a webstie called conservatism.com. I use that money to grift off of morons like (you) to buy myself some diamond rings and a new yacht.
meanwhile Joe sixpack from arizona, a man who has never heard of my website and has zero connection to me, decides he's gonna fundraise some money for a conservative canddiate he likes in the upcoming election.
And then a mentally deficient anon comes in and decides that Joe sixpack is secretly being controlled by conservatism.com because the names are similar and he can't comprehend the idea of a grassroots movement being organized by regular people.
quite the cohencidence don't you think
I don't understand why anons are trying to argue. You'll never accept or be satisfied with anything unless it already conforms to your narrow conceited worldview.
the fact that you think there's an "official" black lives matter site at all proves how much you don't understand the thing your criticizing.
>movement
Every movement ends up having leaders or they ends up dying.
Movements that consolidate around a leader generally tend to go corrupt along with that leader.
All movements tends to that too
It just that sometimes a leader put the shut together and capitalize more efficient
No organization of the BLM movement would give them a snowball's chance in Hell against the forces arrayed against them. Even the people in this thread are a carefully manipulated tool driven by social media for an agenda.
That depends, would this be before or after we found out he was hooked up on fentanyl?
If after, Uncle Ruckus would say something lik: "It ain't the white man's fault that homie couldn't breath. If he put the pipe down, he probably still be alive."
Probably would make a reference to it with a not George floyd.character getting kneed by a mall cop
A shitshow happens either way.
It probably wouldn’t be focused around George Floyd. Moreso it’d be Huey complaining that it wasn’t called “Black Lives Matter Too” from the jump in order to preemptively counter the “All Lives Matter” name. We’d probably see some evil CEO man naming the movement. Ruckus would also hate the All Lives Matter movement because it includes darkies.
The "Black Lives Matter" thing became opposed to "all lives" because of algorithms. Controversy moves better in social media, so the slogan had to feel exclusionary and accusatory or else it wouldn't get promoted. Early on, "All Lives Matter" was suggested as an alternative not to pre-empt black lives, but to imply that if the police can kill one guy for nothing they can kill any of us - the skin and the drugs were just an excuse.
The fighting over whether or not the Black Lives Matter hashtag was exclusionary made it the most mainstream option. The whole thing was emergent. Humans didn't have control, and it served social media advertisers primarily because that's how the system is built. What keeps you scrolling is what's promoted.
I don't know if Boondocks would do anything with that, though. I few like very few people talk about the negative impact the web monopolies have on us and how we're fed information now. People want to act like there's something wrong with society somehow and it's got nothing to do with the businesses that control what society sees and reads.
What businesses control what you see and read?
FANG.
Google, since I primarily use their search engines to interact with the internet.
If you're making an entire episode about George Floyd, you're pretty much not allowed to hsve it be anything but left-leaning preaching about how cop violence against blacks is a serious issue and we need to really think about it and rally up and stand up to the big man and PLEASE DON'T REMEMBER OCCUPY WALL STREET GOYIM DON'T PAY ATTENTION TO THE ECONOMIC DISPARITY, THERE ARE PLENTY OF OTHER ISSUES TO THINK OF LIKE RACISM AND POLICE BRUTALITY!!!!!!
Why do Communists think that only economic issues matter? Rich ethnic groups have been terrorized across history by fellow wealthy of other ethnic groups.
1) Don't you think that people claiming to be socialists should act like ones?
2) Don't you think the issues of the disprivileged should take priority over the squabbles of the rich?
because its the truth
>Ruckus gets beaten up by the cops despite being the one who called them on some criminal (his description of the criminal sounds like he is describing himself)
>he is put in hospital
>Riley filmed Ruckus's beat down and posts it online because he thinks it funny
>white people start violently protesting police brutality
>Episode ends with Ruckus getting out of the hospital and blaming blacks for the riots
Something like that I guess
feel like this is the only episode idea ITT that sounds like something McGruder would actually make
Left out the part where Robert tries to cash in on it
This is funny and could easily be an actual Boondocks episode
thanks
Idk. It depends on how McGruder saw it. He seemed fairly blackpilled on stuff. Wuncler never lost. Huey tries to start a revolution at that movie theater and gets everyone fired. He could do a nuanced story on it being a good message that was co-opted by corporations to make a quick buck. Like a mix between the BET hunger strike and the Obama episode. He's very skeptical of mob mentality when it comes to social events/change. The ending of the R Kelly trial with everyone celebrating a horrible event comes to mind.
As for Floyd himself, I think that incident doesn't lend itself to humor. They'd probably reference it in jokes. Someone (probably Ruckus) in a fight saying they're gonna do a black character like Floyd. But to do an actual episode on it, it's too dark.
Scene: outside in a park grandad and ruckus are playing chess.
Ruckus: you heard about that there homie that got what was coming to him george....George floyd that's his name
>grandad: yeah what a damn shame those cops were to excessive with how they handled that...
Ruckus: TOO EXECESSIVE THAT WHITE MAN DID WHAT HE HAD TO DO YOU EVER DEALT WITH A homie ON DRUGS THEY THE MOST IGNORANT homieS ALIVE YOU CANT DEAL WITH THEM
>Grandad: awww come on ruckus he had his knee on his neck for over 8 minutes on the hot asphalt
Ruckus: AND THATS TOO GOOD A TREATMENT FOR A homie LIKE THAT HE HAD A RECORD AND HE WAS ON THAT FENTANYL EVERYBODY KNEW IT
>Grandad: ruckus even if that is true you have to admit 8 minutes of someone standing on your neck on a hot asphalt street dont you have compassion?
Ruckus: I have compassion for the boys in blue doing they job to make things safe, seems to me everybody is out to get them now
The same way they always deal with it. Throw in some Rollo Goodlove, satirize the rioting and hooliganism of homies being homies, they could have a field day with literally everything else that was going on concurrently in 2020, while also likely emphasizing that the situation represents an actual issue but, "every homie who gets [killed] is not [Martin Luther King]." Huey would likely be leading or participating in protests until he sees how unproductive and opportunistic many of them turn out to be.
All in all, could make a fun episode
these replies prove that white people don't understand The Boondocks. It's fine to admit you just watch it for the Uncle Ruckus parts.
I feel bad for our black anons trying to defend boondocks and Chappelle show to dumb zoomers and hicks who read the shows humor as black and white condemnation and not a critique of specific individuals in the black community who hurt those around them. I can only imagine how tiresome it is to explain that point over and over again
That’s why Chapelle and Chris Rock stopped doing bits like this. Racists jumped up and thought this was a Black person validating their racism.
>That’s why Chapelle and Chris Rock stopped doing bits like this. Racists jumped up and thought this was a Black person validating their racism.
I know. I still bet it is tiresome. It's part of why it is hard for any American minority to improve. Any critique from the inside of individual bad actors or sub groups is seen as proof that the entire group is rotten. Why admit that anyone in your group is a frick up if the entire group will be condemned? You're better off just doubling down and defending your frick upd members if blame will be put on everyone.
But what am I talking about. The worst racists just want everyone not like them to die. First they will eliminate everyone based on looks. Then on behavior. They will peel the onion until nothing is left.
It is so tiresome
Lol you sound like racism is the new atom bomb that just got invented.
> It's part of why it is hard for any American minority to improve.
1st generation Nigerians, Indians and Pakistanis are consistently among highest earning races. East Asians have out earned whites too for a long time. In fact, affirmative action was what was discriminating against them in university
applications. The United States has the highest class mobility of any nation that exists or has ever existed.
America might've already written out its doom centuries ago when it imported large numbers of slaves, and now the slow playing out has set up the stumbling stone(s) to be a part of the crumbling. Similar things happen to smaller scale structures like small companies when the company machinery and processes are disrupted from the inside. A foreign element (or something painted in that kind of way, something that believes itself to be a cut off 'discarded' part in some way) that is useful as a tool for figures who aren't well intentioned is too handy for them to give up their grip over, because that means giving up some power as well. Imagine if a client group majority voting in one specific direction was never guaranteed, and they were much less predictable. Suddenly a lot of leverage gets sucked away from the ones holding the leash
America's slavery era is it's national "put a gun to a pregnant woman" moment. The country just can't come to grips with the fact that it was, in fact "le bad guy", and the continued existence of African Americans is a painful reminder of it's guilt, so they are almost universally treated badly in one way or another. Every other ethnic import into America doesn't have to face this ingrained bias and thus manages to get along.
Well he’s validating my transphobia nowadays.
>ead the shows humor as black and white condemnation and not a critique of specific individuals in the black community who hurt those around them.
The problem in most cases is that racists already see a group as a monolith, and even those who just have a limited exposure to that group will to. That and the media will ensure they only see the worst aspects.
How would the boondocks handle the divestors?
What would the teams be for the Montgomery Brawl episode?
Whites were in the wrong. Blacks were justified in defending the guard, but the dude with the chair was doing too much.
Islamic slavery was different from American slavery.
Muslim slaves were treated more like indentured servants or contract employees. Some literally ended up running countries they were enslaved by.
Muslim slaves were not chattels and their children could not be enslaved too. There was no racial element as anyone could be a slave.
And Muslim men were forbidden from sexually harassing or violating their slaves, unlike American brutes. Many Europeans, Asians, and Africans sold themselves into slavery for easier lives.
nah, slimz cut yo dick off
>And Muslim men were forbidden from sexually harassing or violating their slaves
I'm sure that's what they'd like me to believe.
oh here we fricking go. Motherfricker can't help themselves
You dumb frick they had to get their balls chopped off to hold any rank worth shit and then they sent you off to die as the vanguard
Its clearly a histroical white wash the same thing desantis is trying to pull right now and you frickers fall for it everytime hook line and sinker.
Eunuchs were made before they were in the hands of their owner.
It wasn't something mandated by the Islamic owners themselves.
They were still Eunuchs and had to be Eunuchs to climb the ranks.
Because it was clearly a scheme that they had no family to inherit so all the money they earned goes back to the empire
There's a difference between being made a Eunuch by the Muslims and the Muslims buying Eunich slaves. Only the latter is allowed in Islam.
There is no difference since said slave traders also happened to be muslim and the ottomans made that distinction that ensured all those men were getting their balls cut off
>There is no difference since said slave traders also happened to be muslim
And who delivered the slavers the slaves, buddy? Even the Vikings sold their slaves to the Arabs.
Many of the suppliers castrated their slaves during these travels so they wouldn't impregnate the females or as Wiki said it "In the Ottoman Empire, eunuchs were typically slaves imported from outside their domains. A fair proportion of male slaves were imported as eunuchs".
So 1. there is indeed a distinction and 2. the vast majority Muslim slaves in the Ottomoan empire were imported that way.
So no, the Mulsims weren't as brutal as the Europeans.
>And who delivered the slavers the slaves, buddy?
Africans, Muslims, Europeans. I'm just saying there was a market that demanded balls being chopped off
So there is no distinction since there was clearly a market that wanted ball-less slaves
>Only eunuchs were castrated.
Thats the definition of Eunuchs yes
>So there is no distinction since there was clearly a market that wanted ball-less slaves
Nobody said that Eunuchs weren't in demand. We were talking about that Muslims treated their slaves better than the Europeans and then you wanted to talk about Eunuchs as an counterargument, but the Muslims did not do the ball chopping so that argument is moot.
>getting your balls cut off is better treatment
>being sent off to die in a war and all your money being take is better treatment
Explain
Coming late but I assume the argument is that eunuchs were ultimately a small part of the overall slave trade and the general treatment for everyone who kept their balls was better than the alternative of more brutalization but slightly less castration.
>Strawman
Explanation done.
But yes, being sent off to die in a war and all your money being take is better treatment than having you, your wife, your children, your grandchildren and their children being continiously raped by white slave owners with the treat of murder looming above all your heads for resisting.
Buck breaking is not real
>ottoman never raped slaves or their children, and grandchildren
Ottoman lies
Shit your sack of Constantinople proves youre full of it
But its ok let me dub some mud on my head and that makes murder and slavery fine.
>ottoman never raped slaves or their children, and grandchildren
Correct. Slaves were placed in a harem, sure but European slavers never held harems. They just raped and killed whoever and whenever even after slavery was abolished.
>Correct
Wrong as the Armenian genocide will attest
>as the thing that never happened will attest
If you survive the war you raise in rank socially above the run of the mill slave and even free citizens. You get better living and food and maybe even monetary gifts. Distinguish yourself and you may be freed and given a political career. Slave-Soldiers grew very powerful after the Islamic Golden age, and would even form their own dynasties
Buck breaking is psuedo-historical conspiracy theory invented by Tariq Nasheed
The Ottomans are not really the example of slavery in Islam nor did they have a lot of black slaves, and we were talking about slavery under the Abbasids because those guys had the highest amount of black slaves out of the four caliphates
I wasnt talking about Ottomans and not Abbasids
>Buck breaking is psuedo-historical conspiracy theory invented by Tariq Nasheed
The reasons he might have given might be conspiracy, but that doesn't mean that it never happened
I mentioned the rape of women and children as well,after all?
Or are you going to say that that is a psuedo-historical conspiracy theory as well?
Most slaves were not eunuchs
Yea I'm sure the Armenian genocide didn't happen either huh
>Islamic slavery was different from American slavery.
Yeah, because American slaves were actually allowed to live. Google 'Zanj rebellion'
Zanj rebellion was mostly qarmatian shi-ites bedouin raiders, marsh arabs, freedmen, Jatts and the poor urbanites of southern Iraq. East African slaves werent the majority in that, and how could they be? They either worked as farmers, or drained marshes, they certainly werent trained in war to stand up to and fend off the Abbasids and all the other kingdoms for that long
Acknowledge that George Floyd was not a good person, but that still doesn't make what the police did to him and to other black men OK. The show was always very much against police brutality while also showing that the stupidity of black "thug life" culture only makes things worse.
yeah theres populations of blacks descended from east africans all across the peninsula, iraq and syria, though the Tuareg were never really enslaved
> he starts a grassroots org but finds out since i was first and a prick i own the rights to the name, he joins with me for more name recognition
that never happened. the point you keep intentionally missing is that there is no connection between the organization and the protests beyond the name. You haven't even proven that the grifters organized any protests themselves.
>connection between the organization and the protests beyond the name
I literally gave you an article here
along with the pic that says it happened and they are connected.
So
>the point you keep intentionally missing
Is all projection is what you have to do because acknowledging your wrong and actually a piece of shit that made this country worse whilst enabling corruption
Would be too much to bear
Live with it, I have to watch you morons pull this garbage every few years because you homosexuals need to feel special and good.
>I literally gave you an article here

Once again proving what I said that
>Tells me all i know that you never follow there on whats happening after an incident occurs
>Because you're a lazy frick that only likes drama.
that's proof that BLM (the organization) is connected to other members of BLM (the organization). no shit sherlock.
Again, we're talking about the movement as whole, not the one corrupt organization you keep obsessing over which has never led a protest and whose only claim to fame is maybe, possibly, allegedly creating a hashtag which today is being used by millions of people who have never heard of them.
Once again proving you didnt read the pic or the articles and instead make up scenarios in your heard
As those many grassroots gathered under the originals umbrella frick its in their press release
>Again, we're talking about the movement as whole
No shit moron, and im saying the biggest most recognizable that created the hashtag are corrupt pieces of shit who steal money from those little grass roots you keep praising.
>which has never led a protest
Citation please
You've been making up too many bullshit claims and i've humored them until now but since you cant fricking read I'm going to be demanding them now.
>allegedly creating a hashtag which today
Not Allegedly their is documented proof. But again citations please post me an earlier one from 2013
has never led a protest
>Citation please
where's your citation. Burden of proof is on you to prove the organization had anything to do with leading BLM protests. All you've posted so far is their own press release and why the frick would I believe a bunch of grifters?
That new yorker article you clearly didnt read
And heres a pic
Now where are your citations. Going to goal post move again like a good little b***h?
this one sentence from the new yorker article disproves your entire thesis lmao
In what regard. Do you know what those words mean.
Pick up a dictionary and read it again, how does that disprove
>has never led a protest
Considering the effect Floyd's death had of uniting even the most reasonable black people to think everybody's out to get them and start breaking shit and fricking everyone else over no matter what the facts were I think he would have fallen in step too and not have been as objective about it as people assume he would be
And yet this thread is verifiable proof in their beliefs
If I shaped my world views based on what terminally online aspies on shithole sites like Cinemaphile think, you'd label me a terrorist, but its okay when you do it because you're the good guy and everything you do is right.
You are correct. When the cops come knocking on my door I know I have nothing to fear
And yet you still think you're the one fighting the machine
>uniting even the most reasonable black people to think everybody's out to get them and start breaking shit and fricking everyone else over no matter what the facts were
But this didn't happen, you fell for a media narrative.
>t. black
To quote Uncle Ruckus (no relation): THAT homie HAD IT COMIN! HELL I WOULD'VE USED BOTH KNEES!
Black person race should be exterminated off the face of the earth. They all need to join Floyd in hell where he belongs. Whites cannot share this civilization with them or the other subhuman races.
How would they handle Kanye Hitler?
Oh he would have a field day with that. Probably with a moral about mental health and I feel it would some how bring up his ex wifes father defending OJ.
Probably similar to black dynamite. Focusing more on the people taking advantage of one incident to frick shit up
this entire thread is why this place should be renamed Cinemaphilemblr
>go into Boondocks thread
>some guy actually arguing that the Black Lives Matter organization has nothiing to do with the BLM movement
Poorly
I still cant get over how shitty season 1 looked
The only way it would go as a decent episode is if it was still 2005 and they made it an episode about rodney king where all the white people were like 'well he was a criminal' except for a handful of weird liberals tonguing criminal anus, while huey would try to lead a black nationalist movement and riley would take advantage of all the black people rioting to steal stuff while pretending he was standing up for black people and ruckus was like "he was an ugly ass monkey pissin off the white man's cops in the white man's city, he got what he desoived". The end of the episode would reveal nothing was accomplished, but with a hopeful note that in the future it will lead to better police treatment of felons.
If it was in 2020 or 2023 it would just be black nutsuck worship.
What's the true story about George Floyd again?
Who knows at this point? According to this thread something to do with BLM the movement and BLM the organization being two different things but both agreeing that castrating slaves for the Ottoman Empire was a good idea for the Muslims, who were kind and generous slave owners.
He died while being arrested
He was then propped up as a martyr despite being a bad person.
I mean, why not use another person as the rallying point of BLM?
Surely there were better people to prop up as martyrs, people who, say, were just selling marijuana or something.
Nah, excuses always get made. Like the chick who got shot while sleeping was guilty by association.
That would have been a lot more... I suppose worthy is the term.
Execution while asleep is abhorrent no matter the person.
Thats the thing, obviously police brutality is a real but for that piece of shit? Frick no
There are degrees of guilt by association, Its not like theres not police videos of Officers trying to frame black people and escalating.
Why go for the moron? literally did everything wrong and then some.
>Why go for the moron? literally did everything wrong and then some.
I'm gonna let you in on a little secret. They didn't. That Taylor chick got just as much push on a movement level, but the media and opponents looking to find fault in said movement focused exclusively on Floyd *specifically* because he was such a bad example. It made the whole thing more controversial.
>That Taylor chick got just as much push on a movement level
Didn't she come years later after Floyd and BLM poisoned the well
If by years later you mean 2 months before, then yes.
I see what happened. And now i remember she wasnt framed as racial and in fact it was framed at the No Knock warrant. And let me tell you she has far more support with republicans then Floyd because of it.
Hell im sure Florida banned that because of how unlawful it is Florida. People did care about the injustice. At least more than Floyd
The Taylor killing was in Kentucky, not Florida, just so you know,
I suspected as much but im saying Florida banned the no knock warrant. Because it was framed more as abuse of human rights and government overstepping
>It made the whole thing more controversial
I suppose that it was more dangerous for the government to deal with "don't shoot us while we're asleep" than something that can be spun as "simp for criminals"
Choose your battles and whatnot. Rioters wanted any battle and the government profited from a cause that couldn't unify people.
>Rioters wanted any battle
How do you feel about the mystery brick pallets?
>and the government profited from a cause that couldn't unify people.
Government did it
About the same way as I feel about the way the media was ravenously attacking president of a certain party but then become completely silent about certain other presidents.
>He was then propped up as a martyr despite being a bad person.
He wasn't a "bad person".
He also didn't "die while being arrested." He was murdered; specifically, asphyxiated for almost 10 minutes in broad daylight, after telling the officer that killed him that he was dying, while a crowd of people pleaded with the officer to stop choking him because he was obviously dying (and while the officer's partners kept those people away). So the murderer knew he was murdering the dude, and the only way to stop him would have been for a mob to assault a half dozen police officers.
Just so we're clear on the reason why he was indicted and found guilty (on top of actually being guilty, which is not usually a qualifier for sending a cop to prison): the choice for the state was to either make an example out of an obvious killer, or make the standard for citizens who might be watching a cop slowly choke the life out of someone to mob up and beat/kill the cop.
>He wasn't a "bad person".
Good people don't break into home and rob people at gun-point.
We elect people who've done worse every 2 years. Preschool ethical dichotomies don't belong on a website where you must be 18+ to post.
Coroner > AM radio conspiracy theories
yes coronerm you aint taking that much fentanyl and lving.
Coroner said he was choked to death.
>He says as he pulls whataboutism
>Just because its 18+ doesnt mean youre not moronic,
lol
lmao
Fine, let's use a heuristic. A "good person" is someone who isn't responsible for a heinous violent crime in the past 10 years.
>Floyd: Robbery was in 2007
Seems like a good guy.
>Biden: "buck stops guy" on drone strike that killed like 8 children in 2021
Bad guy.
Heuristic seems to work.
>Fine, let's use a heuristic.
No i refuse to humor your moronation. Fricking Hitler would not be a good person if he didnt commit a violent crime in the last 10 years whilst having previously committed genocide .
Okay, but he spent most of his adult life within 10 years of atrocity, so that point is moot. Heuristics aren't perfect, they're just helpful guides. In this case, by the heuristic, Hitler was a bad person, so it seems to remain useful even when you try to erect a strawman dressed like one of the worst people to ever live.
>No i refuse to humor your moronation
That's my line.
Fentanyl isn't crack. Opioids literally have the exact opposite effect of stimulants.
>Doctors
are not the coroner specifically assigned to the case.
He was on illegal drugs too, so no he was still a bad person you dumb shit.
Your heuristic is worthless just like your posts
> Opioids literally have the exact opposite effect of stimulants.
Spoken like someone who also has never been around a opioid addict and having to deal with their rage
check the post above yours that was the coroner of the county
>Fentanyl isn't crack. Opioids literally have the exact opposite effect of stimulants.
It's not a stimulant but it deadens pain receptors so if they get angry or want to fight you, it's more difficult to stop them because they don't feel a thing. That, and it can significantly impair judgement. Alcohol is a CNS depressant as well but that doesn't stop people from getting belligerent and getting into fights when they're drunk.
>We elect people who've done worse every 2 years. Preschool ethical dichotomies don't belong on a website where you must be 18+ to post.
He says as he pulls whataboutism
Just because its 18+ doesnt mean youre not moronic,
One of the most important things to remember if you're arrested is never to resist arrest. It will give the police a reason to frick you up bodily
>Police say he stole a gun from an officer as he was being placed in a department vehicle and shot himself in the back of the head twice. Gunpowder residue was found on his handcuffs.
>Don't resist arrest.
>Officer tells you to do the macarena while counting to 100 with your knees behind your head.
>Fail
>Get shot anyway
>Officer tells you to do the macarena while counting to 100 with your knees behind your head.
If you get on the ground with your fingers interlaced behind your head and refuse to move, how long till your get shot for not listening?
About "Fruitvale Station" seconds.
Yeah people forget about that instance specifically, but even when you act like the only non-moron in the room (which you might be since cops can get filtered out of the job by being too high IQ by departments), they might shoot you or tack on resisting, even if your resisting is laying on your face with your hands behind your head and waiting on them to cuff you.
Would the response have been as explosive, if police had just shot him? The imagery of the cop kneeling on George Floyd's neck seems more inflammatory than the millions of "black teenager shot while resisting arrest" stories I hear every other minute.
Probably not. It was the fact that the death was protracted and slow instead of instantaneous that drew outrage.
I dread the increasing breakdown of law and order
As someone who's already in an area that's given up on law enforcement for a while, I am looking forward to the backlash. Hopefully we only go 1980's NYC or 1990's and not 1940's germany with it.
I don't see there being enough energy to snap it back into shape again or for anyone to be allowed to try to do it effectively with the current powers that be. I think a lot of people will choose to flee and move, and increasingly the country will divide off into very contrasting areas that look increasingly different when compared. Areas that still have peace and enforced law versus areas and cities where it's an intimidating and unpleasant thought to go for a short walk in the daylight
>I think a lot of people will choose to flee and move, and increasingly the country will divide off into very contrasting areas
You must have missed it when all this happened in the 1950's.
In the 50s the west coast wasn't one of the main centers of 100,000+ fentanyl deaths per year
People were abandoning urban centers for ages before you were born. The post WW2 prosperity gave the existing middle-class the mobility to get away from "different" people that hadn't existed before, so the fleeing tax base gutted city funding and the mechanism for elevating the current poors to middle-class got moved to Chi-Nah.
It's basically a betrayal of the American Prosperity Model for fun and billions in personal profit. Poor people fall into crime and drugs, inevitably. I live in rural NE Missouri and it's opiod and alcoholism out here in Mark Twain country.
>urban centers
Back then they worried about fleeing the inner cities but now people talk about fleeing their home state wholesale even if they weren't in NYC or LA, although to the unhappiness of the residents of the states they move to
The new Billionaire Class is capable of gentrifying entire cities and making them unlivable for anyone but the ultra-rich and the stew of completely destitute. The Blade Runner-fication of certain corners of America.
The main tension in law enforcement is video surveillance of police. Without a blank check to be wantonly thuggish and abusive at whim, the primary benefit of being a cop is lost.
No one sane would do Cop Work for Cop Money if you cannot bully and satisfy your sadism boner. Honestly I am ready for robot cops.
Easy, the episode would probably give a comedic version of his martyrdom by making it extreme (Floyd burgers, George Gas, etc), Huey would question what going over the line is, Ruckus will make fun of Floyd and campaign around as to why he was a coon, Riley will probably try to exploit shit by selling something related to Floyd, and Granddad will act like he went through worse when the police beat him but no one cared. The ep will conclude with Huey giving some speech about how a message and movement can become sensationalized and that we as a society still fail even when we try to do the right thing by bringing up injustice.
No one asks; "Who has contributed to society to the extent that they can justify a personal wealth of $10,000,000,000 dollars?" Which isn't even that fantastical or uncommon a sum among the ultra wealthy. The prosperity that could give life to entire industries and population centers instead gets siphoned into the offshore account of some toolbag with a worthless tech venture, and no one seems to think that this is odd or wrong at all. While kids go to schools without AC or food.
We've been through this before, with the only difference being that much of the infrastructure they own is now conveniently located offshore and worked by near-slaves, so it's almost impossible to really claw your way up through generations in the sweatshops.
Reminder that the democrats in this thread are not left wing are the cancer of america.
People like the one talking about movement without leade is good are just scared because if BLM got a leader and went to election it could have divide the vote and dissmantle their corrupt system and would mean their priviledge life in white liberal homes.
Basically what republicucks dod with moronic movements like Tea party and lolbertarians.
American is the neoliberal distopia of people of both sides thinking they are voting left/right
>People like the one talking about movement without leade is good are just scared because if BLM got a leader
