I might be like Pontius Pilate here, but I don't see any why yall are crucifying him. You might question genuity, but at least he's doing something.

What is it that's he's done? :leostare:
Well, I'm not versed on all his political activities, but his social media activism and run for mayor, I think, represent "doing something".
It's not like he's been in the political pipeline, and began using #blm as his platform. I mean, dude was working in the school system before he started all this. What's there about him to hate in regards to his activism? That i want to know.

You might not think he has earned all the attention, but then I think real issue here should be, if his activism has been a detriment to the cause of ending police brutality. If the answer is no, then all the hate just comes off as character assassination, which would be funny if coming from a black person, from the people he is supposedly trying to help.

You have Shaun King also
In all honesty, ever since I heard someone say Shaun was pocketing donation money meant for the families of victims of police violence to live off of I have to give him a side eye. Although seemingly his heart and mind are in the right place...he's suspect until further notice. Same with Deray. Like besides tweeting what do they do? Now that tye protests been over they exploit injustice as a hustle and lowkey it's sickening if this is what it has come down to.

And this is why social media can be bullshyt. Who took Deray or Shaun as an authority on anything before Ferguson? No one. They bumrushed twitter to notoriety off of the bodies of black men slain by police. Now they do all of these appearances, practically selling out. I really don't even know why and it makes me think they are more about themselves then fighting injustice.

That's what money does. Pay attention. Both Deray and Shaun get alot of criticism on twitter from others. At the end of the day, these guys all agendas aside are not who they seem to us.
