The thing that is hard for me to understand is how if the roles were reversed in terms of Obama being president and him tweeting a video of people chanting black power, ALL the dems and liberals would be supporting it and completely agreeing. And do give me the bs about how it is different because of the power dynamic based on one's skin color. Either way someone saying "x-color power" is essentially saying MY COLOR WANTS CONTROL OVER THE OTHER COLORS.
This is not to say that I support Trump or anyone chanting white power.. but the point is that there is a double standard going on and you need to start giving equal blame for BLM if they start chantin Black power as well.
This country should be fighting for EQUALITY OF OPPORTUNITY not EQUALITY OF OUTCOME aka marxism
Typical response from someone claiming to want equality, but not understanding that past events have DRAMATICALLY titled the playing field and that the ONLY way for equality is to tilt things back.
I'm not suggesting things like affirmative action. That's an "over-tilt", an over compensation. But to get true equality, those that have benefited from a one-sided system are going to have to start losing some of those advantages. It's gonna sting, but its necessary to achieve the true equality you are talking about.
BTW, since there has NEVER been "black power" in our country's history, chanting "white power," with all of it's historical racist overtones, is not even close to people chanting black power.
