Showing posts with the label All Lives Matter

All Lives Matter, eh?

I always found it ironically humorous how most members of the Republican Party countered the Black Lives Matter (BLM) movement by saying, "All Lives Matter." In light of their rejection of Syrian refugees, this is increasingly so today. Here are the two groups' bumper-sticker-worthy slogans regarding the subject and how they should be interpreted: BLM's Slogan "Black Lives Matter!" Interpretation BLM: "Like everyone else's lives, Black Lives Matter too!" GOP's Slogan "All Lives Matter!" Interpretation "All Lives Matter! Well, except for: Women, gays, lesbians, bisexuals, trannies, Muslims, blacks, Latinos, low- and middle-classes, Syrian refugees, agnostics, atheists, etc."
