Dismissing others hardship or injustice because theirs is worse seems very counter productive.
What is the intention of pointing out that African-Americans have it worse? Should we have special laws only for that group? Or, should more non African-Americans die due to bad laws to balance the scales.
- Bilal_io 4y agoI never dismissed anyone's hardship. Read the first line of my comment again. The intention of pointing that out was in response to a specific comment. Context matters. I want police violence to stop. Period. I want them to be held accountable for their actions. But when an article talks about the way law enforcement treats people of different classes with two different standards, and someone starts complaining that black people are getting more media attention, I feel obligated to reference the reason why, without dismissing anyone's hardship. Again, context.
