This comic is part of a story arc – read it from the beginning.
“All lives matter” is only offensive if the “Black lives matter” people really mean “Only black lives matter.” Remember kids, it’s only racist if white people do it! And they should all drop dead while continue to pay guilt money for things that a few of them did centuries ago, when everyone in the whole world had done the same thing for all of history!

A well-worded and accurate description, if much less comedic, of the current state of affairs. You racist 😉

An attack upon my culture is an attack upon my people is an attack upon me.
Don’t microaggress my cultural personhood!
Thank you, you’ve been a lovely audience. Try the veal, and don’t forget to tip your waitress.

Except, of course, “All lives matter” is used, not to accept that black people are killed, incarcerated, discriminated against etc, more often than white people – but instead to invalidate and silence black people when they point this out.
Citation needed. Which “Black Person” was silenced by “All lives matter” Which Black person was de-platformed from Twitter. De-monitized on YouTube? Booted from Patreon, Kickstarter, or a webhost because “All Lives Matter”. Anyone? Anyone? Beuller?
Also, if your [X] commits more crimes than other races, they can reasonably expect to spend more time incarcerated for robbery, assault and murder. The Irish had the same problem. Please cite Bureau of Justice Statistics proving your claim.
Also confirm that more Black people are murdered by somone other than… Black people.
Let me put it this way. 100 people go to a restaurant, and are seated, and 99 of them have their dinner served. The one person left out says “Hey, I haven’t been served! I matter!”, to which the 99 others say “No. We ALL matter!”, before carrying on eating. Nothing has changed. The 1 person left out is still hungry, and the 99 think they have somehow helped by drowning out the voice of the 1.
Math is hard. “We all 100 of us matter. We all 100 of us should get our dinner served! Hop to it”. Including that 1 guy.
Only a completely obtuse moron would think that “Black lives matter” is meant to convey “ONLY Black lives matter” instead of “Black lives matter as well”.Ad hominums are moronic and will be struck.
Only a completely obtuse moron would think that saying “all lives matter” (and then proceeding to do nothing) is useful in a situation when its not ALL lives that are victims of systematic police brutality, institutionalised racial discrimination AND political inequality, but specifically Black lives.You’re welcome to try again without the ad hominum. But you won’t be allowed to tell lies unchallenged.

Remember the BLM response to the outpouring of grief and support for the murdered Frenchmen at Charlie Hebdo?
“How dare you distract from what we suffer”.
BLM was formed in response to the lives of people who identify as Black being murdered in cold blood by corrupt police. “All lives matter” was shouted in solidarity for all the other victims of police murder. Most of whom, are, in fact not Black.
When the only time a hungry person, ignored by waiters complains about not getting served is when he’s ignored by red-heads. When other hungry patrons complain as well and he shouts them down, or beats them up…
Yeah. I’ll believe “Black Lives Matter” when someone puts up a statue to Rudi Giulliani, the founders of KIP, and every Black preacher who tries to get black folks to get married, stay married, and raise their kids right.
Sure all people are equal, but specifically, Black people. FIFY
Bah.
Unless you, yourself identify as a person of African ancestry and are just fightin’ to get and keep your tribe on top, or at least more “on top” than some other tribes. In which case, good for you. But don’t expect to guilt other tribes into ignoring what you’re up to and doing the same right back atcha.
