    Nobody is saying that all lives matter is inherently racist. We're saying that racists use it to dismiss the black lives matter movement. It's not that difficult to understand

    All lives can’t matter until black likes do..
    Black lives are literally part of ALL LIVES
    how can you say that all lives matter when black lives clearly matter less at this point in time. Time to focus on the real shit happening.
    if your counter argument to BLM is ALM it shouldn’t be said it’s blatant ignorance to the matter that is truly at hand.

    you can say this about any race that is being treated unfairly.
    that's why people say ALM, because they want to include other races.
    how can you say black lives matter when black lives matter less?? what?? it can be said both ways and still have the same effect on black lives.

    No, the majority of the people who say ALM only started saying that after Ferguson when the BLM movement started. They took it as they didn't matter. Yeah... all lives should matter equally but look at the system. Then tell me that the ALM people actually want to include other races.

    I follow ALM and I don't even know who tf Ferguson is so. I follow it because I believe all lives should be treated as equal and not that all lives are equal right now because they aren't. The thing that annoys me is people taking people saying ALM without asking them if they think all people are equal or all people should be equal.

    Ferguson is a city. Remember what I said about doing research.

    BLM does include other minorities though. Look at US history. All of the freedoms that the civil rights movement generated apply to other POC too. BLM and other minorities are on the same side.

    I do not really follow your last sentence. We can say BLM because they and other POC are treated like they matter less. Saying ALM includes white people, who obviously matter more than everyone else in the US, which makes no sense. We know white people matter. It's always been that way.

    OK this has been open for too long, I think we have established that discussing politics and opinions online is a stupid idea.

    Thanks everyone that replied
