Tbh I never stopped talking about BLM while everyone out here decided to replace it w Free Palestine. Yall pick a new group to obsess over every couple years and it’s so performative. Haven’t heard a peep about black people since 2020 when it was a trend

Idk how much you are involved with pro palestine movements but local to me, the pro palestine, black lives matter, and pro immigrant ppl are all working together in solidarity

Caring about black people is on Sunday’s. Weekdays for Palestine and my schedule is free for others during early weekends, get with the program honey

It doesn’t sit right with me that real human beings are used as performative concepts that privileged white people use to make themselves feel better about their white guilt. If yall truly cared about any of these groups, yall wouldn’t make them trendy one by one. BLM is entirely forgotten, and nothing ever came out of it. Now there’s just memes circulating and it’s not taken seriously

Ppl hating but youre making a really good point here. It can be really hard to distinguish between social movements moving in waves with the hype of the moment without planning for longevity vs them moving performatively with no greater intention rather than the hype
