To me all you need to know about blacklivesmatter is to look at Canada.
We opened the floodgates to immigration in the 70s.
We are a diverse and tolerant nation.
Asians, Sikhs, Muslims, people from around the world come to Canada. No one complains about systemic racism.
All of a sudden, as the blacklivesmatter movement started in the US, progressives and black Canadians start whining about the 'racist' white Canadians.
There has never been racism against blacks before. As a matter of fact, Canada did a lot for US slaves.

Asian gangs arrested? Nothing.
Arrest a Muslim for a crime? Nothing.
Arrest a Sikh for something? Nothing.
Arrest a black criminal? Racism!
Basically, NO ONE does victimhood like the black community*.
Just sick of this garbage.
* Well, except First Nations people but they've always complained.
