All this stupid preoccupation with words and statues is taking away from black people the mission of the US BLM movement. It is a deliberate diversion by some people who are trying to undermine the cause and set the majority of the population against it.

Black people should publicly reject these diversionary tactics and reassert the true message and raison d'etre of BLM. It has nothing to do with language, white lives or statues. It is about the way black people are treated now and not how they were treated centuries ago.

The people who are adding stuff to the original message, such as bringing down capitalism, know exactly what they are doing. They should not be allowed to get away with it.
