I understand the fear or the annoyance of having someone muddy the waters. If you check out my political writings, though, you'll see I have no truck with conservatives (links below).
In short, I deny there's any such thing as conservative thought or philosophy. Conservatism boils down to self-destructive regression or animalism, as in the excuses presented for humanized dominance hierarchies (monarchies, theocracies, plutocracies). To this anti-thought is opposed humanism, otherwise known as liberalism, progressivism, egalitarianism, socialism, and so forth.
My problem is that I'm not onboard with wokester posturing either. So my goal here was to state what I take to be the full truth of George Floyd's death. The full picture seems to offend both progressives and conservatives because it indicts American society as a whole, not just a rogue cop.
Why did Floyd turn the event into such a spectacle? Why did the crowd so self-righteously crow from the sidelines, making for an absurdist distraction or tragic chorus? My explanations of these facts may be somewhat speculative, but the facts themselves jumped off the screen. Floyd resisted arrest in such flagrant, dramatic fashion because of societal flaws that are much larger than Chauvin's sadism.
