This gesture—like Nancy Pelosi taking a knee, and predators like Mitt Romney Jeff Bezos, Jamie Dimon and Bill/Melinda Gates all barking, “BLACK LIVES MATTER!”—is an immense distraction from what the US is doing militarily worldwide to countless “lives of color”; from what the arsonists and vandals did to thousands of black-owned businesses in the wake of BLM’s loud protests; and from the many ways in which the nation’s crackpot COVID policy has killed and sickened countless African-Americans.
The bad faith here is so egregious that it’s nauseating.
