Plucky wroteSSR wrote My personal opinion on it is as follows Are you talking about the original Black Panthers or the New Black Panther Party? The New Black Panther Party is already disowned by OG Black Panther members and even calls them a black racist hate group because the New Black Panther Party are the ones that have been calling for whites to be ashamed for being white, violence against whites, some even flat out calling for the death of white babies to lower the white population and the murder of Jews for some damn reason. The original Black Panthers were formed to protect their neighbourhoods and basically police the police on racial injustices. Their ideology was both nationalism (right wing) and socialism/Marxism (left wing.) They didn't go against any of America's constitutions, in fact heavily promoted the second amendment - of right to bear arms and protect yourself. Bloods and Crips formed from the idea of OG Black Panther group, with both forming to protect their communities but then shit went south really quickly and now the Bloods and Crips are what people know them as today. The New Black Panther Party you can compare to the KKK as both sides think one side is of a higher power than the rest and calls for violence against the other. The OG Black Panthers can't even be compared to the KKK by any means. Their agenda was peaceful from the start, Malcom X got assassinated, Black Panthers form to protect their fellow blacks, they monitored police to make sure they weren't pulling whatever shit was going on in the 60s and basically calling for what is going on now, equal rights such as a black person's life is the same as a white, trying to get more black people into political offices since that shit was either rare or non existent during that time. Then when you have people labeling you as a gang and the police and FBI running operations against you as if you were a terrorist organisation, that's when you can argue their agenda got on the more violent side as that's when they started arming up and calling for others to arm up to protect themselves. Sure you had some that strayed away and took advantage be that killings, shootouts, and that one guy from their own group who got tortured and murdered for thinking he was a police informant, but that's with any organisation/following, as soon as you get more than one person in that group, eventually it's original message will eventually be lost from someone within the group going to an extreme. Political party, religion, movements, it doesn't matter, the second a group gets more than one member in it, it's only a clicking time before someone does something that completely lumps the rest of the group under one guise. |

Rin wrote So when you say (OP) that these protests are worse than the "few that have been unlawfully killed by police" you are choosing to ignore the real problem which is institutional racism and police corruption. What institutional racism? Where is the evidence that there is institutional racism in the US? The statistics show that black people commit 52.5% of homicides in the US despite making up only 13% of the population. The statistics show that black people commit 38.5% of violent crimes like rape, robbery, and aggravated assault in the US despite making up only 13% of the population. 93% of black homicide victims are killed by other black people. The problem is not white people being racist, or institutional racism. The problem is black people committing more crimes which results in more black people having interactions with the police which result in more instances of police brutality being perpetrated against black people. You can drill down into these statistics and think about what is causing the high crime and murder rate amongst black communities, which people are doing, and some people have suggested that it comes down to poverty more than race, or that black communities have cultures which are more predisposed to tolerance of violence - but what these numbers do not suggest at all is that there is institutional racism in the US or that the police are institutionally racist. |
