In the end progressive will win out [View all]

You know what the protests over the last few weeks tell me? That in the last dying gasps of white power, as they have tried to wind back to the days of white supremacist worst excesses and as they have rolled back protections to the extent that the murder of black men is generally barely acknowledged in the conservative white community - eventually progress will win out. There is a reason why in 2020 the BLM movement is supported by such a diversity of communities in Generation Z. That is progress and however much the nasty racist wankers in charge try to stop this progress they will not win, even as right now they are fighting viciously to retain the status quo. Apart from anything they are going to die off as this generation start to take control of the levers of power. Yep. Progressive will win out.
