With the exceptions of some Gen Zers who were brought up with the lie and expend an inordinate amount of energy trying to maintain epistemic closure, everyone in the country knows the BLM organization was founded on falsehood and that the death of approximately one dozen unarmed people a year at the hands of police does not amount to black genocide.
Yet millions of Americans are forced to live under this lie today. For instance, consider the store owners who place Black Lives Matter signs on their front windows in hopes of placating rioters. How many of them admit that the act is purely a protective measure, born out of helplessness, and not some kind of affirmation of radical racialist ideology?
When riots began consuming American cities, major corporations responded with struggle sessions, during which employees were encouraged to confess to being racist for thinking or feeling something offensive, or for not performing acts BLM deems “anti-racist.” These struggle sessions are often shaped by Robin DiAngelo’s book “White Fragility,” which advises supposedly well-meaning white people on whom to befriend and counsels them to seek out situations in which they would feel unsafe. In other words, employees of major corporations are being asked to mimic a cult.
