That's the reason the world is in such a state and these people keep perpetuating it.

I hate it.

Like looting and burning down businesses justifies police brutality. It doesn't.

They don't think that much into it.

That and if all stores in your area are ransacked, where do you go for supplies?

Argument kinda falls on its face once people have literally died during all this. It's a completely legitimate case of both sides have absolute human scum right now hurting innocent people.

My main is in purgatory for saying essentially what I'm saying here. I'm just sick of seeing it all over this site so I'm repeating myself.

They had one, it was destroyed by rioters and looters. And if they owned a business their entire savings were probably into it. Try thinking just a little bit beyond the surface and you'll surprise yourself sometimes.

What are you talking about? No one has said that. They're not killing people to stop riots, and people don't have to destroy and loot shit in the first place. It doesn't help the cause at all.

I'm gonna make a bold prediction and say burning down all these businesses in black neighborhoods will not actually improve the lives of black people but rather they will make living in them worse for years to come.

Ah one of the "looting is a victimless crime" crowd. Great, so when the businesses move out of the areas you won't be one of the ones calling it racist?

making money as a business owner is contingent only on owning the business, not on actually doing anything

Can you name someone who has starved to death because of these protests?

Yeah because blaming all the destruction on white people isn't in the slightest bit racist.

Small business owners have to wear many hats and often have to do the role of several jobs.

Did you not see the news showing long ass lines at the Food bank during the COVID lockdowns?

That was because people couldn't go to ******* work.
What do you think happens if you burn down their business, you've just made that situation more likely permanent.

This, and yes people who own a business often do wear many hats, most work their ass off to keep their business afloat.

Joel is just some canadian kid who lives in his parents basement and spends all of his time pushing communism because he decided to get a degree in jazz trumpet and now wants the whole of society to collapse in the hopes that in some Glorious Revolution he'll be given state sponsorship.

He's the kind of person that will argue with a straight face that if you aren't physically out there breaking rocks or cutting down trees that whatever money you make is a form of theft against workers. He sees any form of ownership as a form of oppression.
