We are all the same in a debate about black lives matter. We are all human, we are born then we die, we all bleed the same blood. I'm not denying black people don't exist or anything similar to that, I'm saying we shouldn't be labeling groups of people as it's segregating them which is something we are trying to fight against. One sure way of us
versus them situation is movements like black lives matter. You have then created a group which is segregating them over everyone else. Those of us that aren't racist know black lives matter. Those that are racist are now seeing the black lives matter movement as a us versus them situation which is the very thing we don’t want

All lives matter regardless of who you are. If we want to fight various situations such as what happened in America then we should be doing it as one, not separating it. We all matter and we can all fight it by helping each other.
