What about deplatforming BLM, which seems to be the major driver for this unrest and criminal activity? As can be seen clearly in the video, the 17 year old was running away and defending himself against multiple attackers, some of whom were themselves armed.

Maybe he's aligned with Cliven Bundy and down on the Bureau of Land Management.

BLM isn't the driver for unrest. On-going (For decades) criminal behaviour by police forces is the driver for unrest.

People don't go out to protest, to get shot by less-lethal bullets, to get gassed, to have flashbangs thrown at them because they are bored. They do it because they are tired and angry, and because their cause is just.

As long as there's so much money to be made, Facebook has no incentive to. As long as they know they can give you and other developers the generous salary/options/perks and you will complain at an all hands but not actually leave, they have even less incentive to. Talk is cheap, even from employees, and the executives at Facebook know that.

I enjoy seeing these political threads here on HN. It's good for this place to finally have a look in the mirror and see what's there.

Agreed they turn a blind eye to the real problem and blame others. BLM has killed more innocent people then all police combined this year, which is sad as the entire premise of their platform is that police are brutalizing the black communities. When there were all of 9 shootings last year, oppsies looks like they upped the number to 14 recently, of which only one was unarmed and not a known and wanted criminal. Yet over 6000 black on black murders occur every year. The stupidity of it all is nearly overwhelming.

The media inverts everything, it's how they make money right now and it's awful. CNN anchors are literally one Baghdad Bob after another. The most hilarious memes right now are those with "mostly peaceful" protests where behind the anchor huge fires are raging.
