>>15135413>>15135437She’s not American and hasn’t had the interest or education to learn about these issues in detail, so of course her impression is going to come from the default European mainstream discourse, which doesn’t know what the fuck it’s talking about especially as no European country has a black population even comparable to some parts of America. BLM is like a sports game to Europeans rather than something burning down their cities. It’s just a way to feel superior to Americans while also aligning oneself with the dominant narrative in the international press, and it filters down through most of Western European society. I say this as a Euro. I doubt she even knows who the Proud Boys are.
