Yes of course, the root cause of the death of George floyd and ahmed Arbery is progressive academic critical race theory. I completely get that.

This does not add anything to the discussion which was about the academic origins of the narrative around race (and other aspects of identity) in the US. You might also want to check on how many black policemen have been killed recently without a single outcry from those who set your country on fire in 2019 and wonder whether those riots were really in support of "black lives". Did their lives not matter? Here's one of them: Kareem Atkins [1], killed in an ambush in Houston with two other police offers (who also happened to be black) injured. They tried to intervene in an alleged robbery when they were ambushed. Why is there no outrage from "the black community" in this case? The answer, of course, is as clear as daylight and shows that the outrage has nothing to do with "black lives": when black police officers are killed by "bipoc" men there is no political leverage to be had since it does not support the desired narrative. Take those ideological blinders off and see clearly, for your own sake and for that of the people around you.

  I like that you compared the actions of black criminals to that of white police officers in response to my comment. Your equation is striking and lays bare your ideology.

    Another logic fallacy, I compare the loss of life of one black man to that of another black man and notice it is those who look at this through an ideological lens who make difference between the two, not those who look at the value of a life without checking skin colour. Again, take of those ideological blinders, your life will be better. You will learn to see, for real.

      I don't think you understand what logical fallacy means if you are going to set the same standard for tax payer funded white law enforcement officers and black criminals.
