Black lives matter to boycott white owned businesses for Christmas.

Disgusting and racist.

Weird. I never got these orders in the weekly meeting

Aren't most corporations owned and operated by old white men?

No one cares, especially about conservative trolls feigning outrage over nonsense.

@tjandmia: all holidays matter.

Fox News... i wonder what the real story is.

Maybe this is the real story, someone from a twitter handle with a massive 300 followers decided to say this. Good job Fox News, really focusing on the issues we face as a nation. One person with 300 twitter followers suggests black people to donate their money locally in order to help rebuild communities instead of buying useless shit no one needs, the world is ending. Fuckin prime time, 60 minute, time magazine tier story.

And Santa Claus forbid they clarify that BLM is only suggesting police face the death penalty when convicted of murdering unarmed citizens (you think conservative libertarians would be in favor of this).

Buying products from black owned businesses isn't racist. It's discriminatory but not racist. Having said that, this is fake news being turned into a big story.

This will be good for small businesses but good luck finding big ticket items or department store prices for that last minute stocking stuffer.

Yup, let us no purchase no stuff from them pale face, melanin lacking greedy sons of bitch ...... wait a second, I am a pale face, melanin lacking son of a bitch, what I’m supposed to do ?

Hmm, ok

But to be fair it is kinda racist to call it Black Friday.

No it's not. Do you even know what the term means?

Haha, please explain.

Items are cheap and black people are poor, duh.

LOL.

LOL as if the lineup at KFC will be any shorter.

free markets and all right?

Yeah, knew there had to be some detail Fox was lying about or leaving out, and you hit the nail on the head.

Here's the problem I have with it, our economy is predicated on buying useless shit no one needs. You know who gets a paycheck thanks to useless shit no one needs? Yours truly, not to mention a whole lot of women and POC. You know who benefits from white businesses? People employed by white businesses, including women and POC. And believe me, I live in an area where black neighborhoods could use a whole helluva lot of TLC. It seems like around here black neighborhoods either stagnate, or some big developer comes in, usually with the mayor's enthusiastic support, and builds a ton of new, fancy buildings that drive the rent up so high it forces 90 plus percent of the current residents out. I just don't see putting the onus of fixing that situation on working people who are already struggling as a good thing. Making donations are, at best, going to give these organizations a holiday boost while not actually changing the situation on the ground. The fact of the matter is that all those developers, speculators, and politicians should be fixing the situation, not some family who just wants to buy some nice things for their kids. Classic attempt to pit the proletariat against itself.

But yeah, shame on Fox for trying to use a stupid tweet to slam BLM.

WTF is this supposed to mean?

Meh. That's all I can say.

Racism..........

Boycotting black friday is something Ive done every year. Now cyber monday, thats a different deal.

learn your heritage, and not ignore the unpleasant parts

I think in this case one of the best ways to help solve the problem is to ask why is it a problem in the first place.

Both sides have a view on the cause, and both sides should express their thoughts on what the cause is.

@n64dd:

LOL it´s true what they say, the last idiot is not born yet.

These "BLM" are a joke

Racism is not the problem, most people are racist to varying degree regardless of if they know it or not.

The question is about the actions taken based on racist views.

slavery vs not shopping at whitey store.

Only racists believe everyone is racist...........
