Black Lives Matter

@Kusokosla “My life was far tougher than any black person's living in the US“ Setting aside the obvious answer “Slavery“ even “Jim Crow“, “Tulsa“ or “Rosewood“ would be sufficient answers, so you're vastly underestimating the racism black people have suffered from in the US.
Your post #872 is incredibly funny and depressing at the same time because I refuse to believe that you think that it shows anything. When comparing white and black people, you need to take the difference in population size into account. But in the graphic, the numbers are shown “per one million of the murderers race“ which has the opposite effect.
What next? Will chess.com tell everyone to support the protesters/rioters in Hong Kong and Venezuela and donate money for their Molotov cocktails "in the name of peace"? And then deny that it's a "political" message and call anyone who disagrees a "racist"? Or is only Lichess so full of dishonest hypocrisy? Let's hope Lichess is the only bad apple.
I really don't understand all that support for Black Lives Matter movement. Black people on the streets asking white people to apologize for having white privilege and some white dumb people literally kneeling and kissing black people's toes? That is disgusting! What about all these riots where innocent people getting hurt or dead because of all the dumb manipulative sheep herds roaming the streets like zombies and destroying other people's properties? Is that fair?

I get that black lives should matter and the justice already had been done and the guilty parties are facing very serious charges. I also get that black or colored people get oppressed more, but that's because statistically there are more black/latin gangs than there are white ones. Of course police will be more alert upon seeing those dangerous and suspiciously looking individuals.

Of course all of that doesn't in any way justify what those police guys had done to George. But that doesn't give you any right to go out on the streets, riot, break and steal other people's properties wreaking chaos everywhere. That I cannot and will not approve.

Black people are the ones being racist now, using current situation into their favor.
@Chillkroete77 Where did you see that“colonialism and slavery were good, actually“ in the video? That's not what the video is saying. Did you watch the whole video from beginning to end?
@Chillkroete77 I suggest you give chess a break and start reading nonfiction. I get the impression you get all your info from chess sites, Hollywood movies, and American "political infotainment" producers. There's whole big wide world out there, outside the borders of the USA. Try to learn about it. Sincerely.
If you have a different opinion than Lichess - then you need a fast horse.

Le mieux est l´ennemi du bien.
