There are lots of Anti SJW sewers to spew this kind of low-brow nonsense go there and whine
It's a national news story covered by mainstream media, and the lawyer with the biggest name in the social justice world, Benjamin Crump, is making the argument that children were traumatized because they didn't get a high five. A bit of a bigger news story than chocolate tacos, me thinks. If the forum didn't want nutcases who are just like Q Anon to be criticized just because those nutcases happen to mostly vote Democrat, the moderators would edit the opening post of this thread and leave a note saying not to post news that makes people who vote D look bad. Until that happens, I'm afraid there is no rule protecting Q Anoners and their equivalents from being talked about, but I know you're a big supporter of restricting speech and you pretend to care about equality, while arguing that only certain groups should be allowed to be criticized. Again, if you don't care about the news story or think it matters, no one is forcing you to comment on it.
Yes, I understand things in the US are fucked right now with the Supreme Court and abortion rights/ contraception/ gay marriage and things like that, and I've made it clear that the Ds are better, I'd rather have them in office, and I completely understand that people are not in the mood to hear arguments like mine that they figure might help conservative politicians, but real equality means you don't just let one side go without being criticized. A lack of criticism is not what helps you improve and grow. I understand that the black mother in this case is a whackjob in part due to white supremacy. The same goes for Benjamin Crump. He's out to lunch at the loony bin because white supremacy turned him into this. I acknowledge how things got the way they are. I'm different from most anti-SJWs in this regard. I acknowledge that almost everything boils down to white supremacy when you go back in time.
