Love is usually fake but hate is usually real

How bout we speak the truth. Like how many black people feel entitled to break laws. Turning minor traffic citations into resisting arrest then lawsuits. You ain't above the law. Nobody owes you a damn thing in life. Only person you owe is yourself.

So sad seeing these brainwashed children

[badmf]

MLK would be disgusted with what most of you stand for nowadays 🤦‍♂️

[adel]

I recall the emphasis on "Character" NOT "Color"

[badmf]

Lol, what does an 8 year old know about love and hate 😂

[patrickmccarthy]

I never hated anyone, I just lost respect for them.

[rodgerwoods]

Wonder if those first aid kits had gun shot wound care and Narcan 🤔

"We are far from MLK's dream. Now pay me my reparations cause I'm black."

I wonder what MLK thinks of gender reassignment surgery on minors.

Do you ever notice how we don’t get intelligent takes from politicians but we are spammed with these “wholesome” takes from literal children? Part of me feels this is part of the push to let increasingly younger ppl vote. Part of it also feels like total propaganda. I get how the message is sweet but it’s naive af. And any actual adult who repeats such lines of thinking shouldn’t be allowed to vote

[patrickmccarthy]

There are different kinds people on my job, we get along fine and don't have these conversations, we're there for the Benjamins.

I was 8 yrs. Yung wen MLK was murdered..always rememberJOHN kennedy. robert kennedy...Marilyn Monroe..Malcom X

[DOboyle]

This is a distraction, we are all still slaves. Who owned slaves? My family? You better think again.

[John_Q]

This girl has never heard of the Mongolian empire, Roman empire, and many other empires that were fueled by hate. Hate and evil are definitely more powerful than love and good, it's just that hate and evil sometimes needs to take a break to accumulate more power before it strikes again. Dark times will return. History repeats itself.

Idk whos mlk
All about cesar Chavez!!

[TunaLounge]

Only true love can bring true hate.

[JamesSmith-xkfb]

Hitler says otherwise so does Genghis Khan...
