How isn't this you?

 I’m try to be very socially aware of the way I’m coming off and make the extra effort to make sure that people feel comfortable around me and know my intentions and know that I care about them and know that I’m not one of the people who is going to treat them differently or poorly, or who thinks anything negative about them even in the subtlest of ways. 

This is something I’ve felt strongly about since I was in elementary school because I grew up with parents who weren’t quite on the same page as people supporting the BLM movement. They were unintentionally, not hateful but, ignorant, about these kind of issues- and even as a child I saw plain as day how this was wrong- no one had to tell me that. 

And I became very interested in the history behind the civil rights movement, and studied Martin Luther king jr for fun. I chose to study that on my own free time, and you can ask my parents, it was something I did as a kid. I was kind of a fan, I liked to watch movies and read books about it, and quoted him often. He was one of the first people I molded myself after and looked up to as a child, and I carried that with me for life.

Just saying, I'm bisexual and you don't see me waving pride flags during a historical moment meant more for other people than ourselves.

You're trying to act like you "see it", but you don't. 

You may not be trying to be hateful, but it still comes across as ignorant. Instead of just trying to please everyone like a naive and lost appeaser, try to work on developing a real opinion of your own.

Yeah, it must be fun to be white and privileged, watching the plight other people went through as a hobby. 

Turncoat I was educating myself and inspired by someone to break the cycle of adopting my parents ignorance. I took that upon myself because I felt ashamed to be associated with people like that... I felt it didn’t represent how I saw things which was that everyone had a right to equality and justice.

I don’t see why you think my opinions aren’t real but instead I’m pretending to have them lol that doesn’t make a lot of sense to me

It's super easy to say that everyone has a right to equality and justice, but what are the terms when it comes to matters like censorship? 

Who should and shouldn't be able to speak their opinions, in your opinion?

Your opinion looks like the equivalent of "Racism is bad!", which amounts to about as much as "War is bad!". There's a lot of ways to subscribe towards the race enigma, but it looks to me like you haven't dug any further than a feelgood hippy would.

It's a reflection of the privilege you have that allows you to not have to understand it deeper than this, allows it to be this shallow. 

Obviously I didn’t write an entire 800 page essay on what racism and BLM is all about, in it’s entirety. To make a comprehensive speech about that would be a difficult task, and wasn’t my goal when I was talking about racism I was just saying what I was thinking about at that moment and what I felt that I had to say based on things I had witnessed and what was on my mind about it 

that doesn’t mean that my views are short sighted or lack depth, just because i didn’t express them comprehensively in that 60 second blurb i posted on the internet. It’s not possible to show all of what i think about it in one short go obviously so I just focused on what I could say, what was on my mind, to add to, all the things, everyone else is saying. 

You’re judging me really critically based on a tiny bit of sentences i posted rather than just having a discussion and getting to know what i think you’re like calling me out saying I’m this person I’m not and slapping assu,motions and labels on me first and then i have to like “prove myself to you” back and it puts me in an awkward situation 

and it’s a tense way of getting to know a person 

why not just, have a discussion about it that’s a little more relaxed and like, get to know me a bit before you just assume or judge. 

I’m sorry that things were misinterpreted but at the same time ime, while i can only strive to be more and more conscious of my communication efforts and the way it’s perceived socially, I also would ask that we both make efforts to start off on a good foot with each other and, try to understand one another a bit like, getting to know a person a little more and what we’re all about and how we really are etc.

You keep insisting I must not know you, but holy shit I've read a lot of your posts and we've had lengthy conversations on here. Did you just forget about all of our older conversations, such as your ones about your terrible memory? To compare you to lets say... Alena, Sven, Xadem, Tryptamine, Legga, Inquirer, Alice, and many more of us who have no problems stating our opinions that we formed in spite of surrounding social pressures, it's depth is reflected in the opinions themselves, in the effort put behind it that shows themselves through what they think and what they've seen. When read, it shows a clear comprehension of the events and what they mean to them instead of just worrying about saying the right thing, even if I don't necessarily agree with their portrayals. 

Your opinion so far just looks like "Lets chill bro, life is scary" followed by consumerist binging and Youtube idols. Show me that it's more than that or I'll be stuck seeing you as shallow and ignorant.

Why? I've been able to do it mindlessly, this shouldn't really be that hard. 

Still, your lack of self-reflection on BLM shows your privilege further.

I don't think you can have a strong opinion on this, you're too afraid of the backlash.
