The corruption of the social justice movement
St. Louis Post Dispatch ^ | 09/14/2018 | Blake Ashby

Everything wrong with the social justice movement is currently on display in Ferguson.

Four years after Michael Brown’s death, a group of protesters are trying to shut down the store Brown visited just before he was killed. They blockaded the store until the police finally made them stop and continue to protest the store and verbally harass anyone who tries to shop there.

My wife and I were present at a City Council meeting observing the protesters. Some threatened to burn the store down and to harm the owners, an Indian-American family. Others added a dose of racism, calling the store owners “Pakistanis” and suggesting they didn’t belong in our community. Police did nothing to intervene.

Blacks don’t like mango pickles? Or they don’t like “paying” for mango pickles?

The entire article is very worth reading - the conclusion in the final paragraph is quite striking - and spot on accurate.

Actually, Social Justice Warriors was a slur hard core commiescum used for their lesser motivated fellow travelers back in the day. The other name for them was “Useful Idiots”.

Any time you add a qualifier to justice, it ceases being justice.

The “social justice” movement has been corrupt since MLK was a corporal.

MLK Jr was OK, It’s been a downhill slide ever since.

“MLK Jr was OK”

Had he never been born, the United States would be in much better shape than it is.

Whether he was in on it or not—and how stupid could he be, really—the USSR used him to make our race problem hundreds of times worse than it ever had to be.

They write that headline as if it wasn’t corrupt from the outset, as if the entire thing wasn’t built on a lie...

Is anyone getting tired hearing about all of this “gender-bender” stuff? Just what part of the Scripture don’t these people understand?

(Mark 10:6-9) Jesus replied. 6“But at the beginning of creation God ‘made them male and female’. 7‘For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, 8and the two will become one flesh. So they are no longer two, but one flesh. 9Therefore what God has joined together, let no one separate.”

This time, it asked me to do a survey. The final paragraph speaks about how liberals are blaming Trump, when it’s actually the social justice movement that is making America hate.

“Visited” ... right....

Well, he went there ... but if his behavior is “visiting” to the writer I wouldn’t invite the writer over.
