The media is desperately trying to put the best possible spin on the insane racist and anti-Semitic Black Lives Matter policy agenda. But the document, which among other bits of insanity demands“taxes on public goods like air (carbon tax.)” to fund its reparations program, has assorted more random craziness like this.
The increasingly delusional group wants to “prevent digital technologies from automating industries, making Black and other workers disposable.”
What does that mean? How is it supposed to work?
Does BLM want to ban self-checkout counters and Uber? No more robots on car assembly lines? No more security cameras replacing security guards? Who knows. Sections of the insane BLM manifesto are still placeholders and this particular demand doesn't seem to be linked to anything coherent. But apparently robot lives don't matter.
If a conservative group had demanded a tax on air and called for ending automation using digital technology (no more Instagram, bring back Kodak) the media and its assorted add-on comedians like John Oliver would have a field day. But no one can mock a racist black nationalist hate group which is starting to sound crazier than Farrakhan.
