... Here are some World Facts that work against the Black Lives Matter movement:
- The majority Race of the planet are Asians.
- The United States of America is the World's 3rd largest Population, after China and India and before Indonesia.
- The United States and most Western countries embrace Monotheism with a binary view of life, Good or Evil, Black or White.
- Most of Asia embrace Polytheism that has nuances of grey in life, i.e. nothing is purely Good nor Evil.
- In Asia, people are categorised by their Ethnicity or Ancestral Origin - not Colour.
- Naming people by their Colour is predominantly a Western bias, where White is the standard Good.
For these reasons, it's hard to fathom why the African-descent in the United States would want to call themselves Black, especially with the shallow argument of retaking power from oppressive words; there are more words in the English vocabulary that can be used to empower.
Similarly, Black Lives Matter is focused on Black Lives, which is not a candidate for a World movement and only plays to local consumption; even then, why should Native Americans, Asians or Latinos care about BLM when they're not of the same colour and aren't even included in the original Movement.
People argue that it's a Movement for all Minorities; that is asinine because if it were then it would be called Minority Lives Matter.
Some CNN Anchors also argue that if other Races want their own movements, they are welcome to it; that is exactly the point.
Black Lives Matter is the fruit of Tribalism in the country, not its solution.
So as much as I agree Minorities should have proportional representation and be treated equally, BLM is not the way to achieve this.
