It's the direct reflection of how little a large group of people care about the racial injustice in America and shows why the movement was and is needed.
Yeah, God forbid an artist writes about the things that move him. People dismissing the voice of a celebrity whenever he's spreading his or her political opinion are only fed up with it if it doesn't go with their agenda. And besdes, you've voted a celebrity in the White House.

Because there is a bigger picture going on... All of the mainstream media in the US are controlled by three major corporations who essentially control everything... This also includes Hollywood and Celebrities.
Every president leading up to Trump has been their puppet. However, because they can not control Trump they will do everything in their power to keep this country divided. Not only with the Left and Right , but with the Corona Virus, and now with George Floyd. They somehow turned George Floyd into a political divide of left vs right which should have never been the case.
Like I stated. The George Floyd situation is tragic. The guy was a dirty cop and deserves every punishment he gets. The problem is, he doesn't represent ever police office in this country. I support BLM and peaceful protests. Change is necessary.. but what I don't support are, police officers as a whole getting a bad name for it, innocent police officers getting killed over it, defunding NYC police officers, etc. De Blasio would rather troll Trump by painting BLM in front of Trump Towers, meanwhile the crime rate is at a record high in NYC.
You can still be supportive and not follow the social media propaganda. Like the Seinfeld episode when Kramer was walking in the Aids Race but didn't want to wear the ribbon. He was there for support but didn't want to follow the trend.
Reminder, this is the same country that voted for a black president not once but twice (myself included) so we're not as divided as the media wants you to think.
Trump has done more for the black community than any preceding president but the media will never mention it because they want control.
I'm more in the middle. I'd say I have more conservative values but I'm not so far Right where I can't listen, understand, and support the other side.
There is a silent majority out there who are going to vote for Trump, not because they love Trump but they are sick of the mainstream media. And as long as they keep dividing, the more they are pushing Trump toward victory. The Dems are just too stupid to figure that out.
The Democrats go after the low informed voter and that's why the media will only let you know what they want you to know. It's communism.
I was waiting for the one idiot to write what you wrote above because it is a lose / lose. However I think if Jon wanted to write a nice tribute song to George Floyd the way he did for Kurt Cobain through his daughter in Lonely At The Top, I think the Right side would be more accepting but he basically just rewote headlines, which is Politics101 and people aren't as dumb as you think and see right through all that. This is the same guy who supported Evil Hillary so everyone knows he's got a bigger agenda.
And just for the record, I attended a protest and donated money to BLM which is more than what most people have done.
