It would be lovely if everyone took the time to explain that as nicely as you. Thanks!
It's not nearly as present in discourse as it used to be, but it wasn't too long ago that it felt like so many people had internalized the idea that saying "all lives matter" was 100%, no room for nuance, a dogwhistle for racist people who somehow really meant "white lives are the only lives that matter". Maybe it was for some racist assholes.
I just felt like focusing on any one skin color was limiting. I wasn't against BLM, I wanted even more!
