Actor and comedian Terry Crews probably didn’t expect to be on the wrong side of Twitter’s woke mob, but here we are again in 2020 — where nothing makes sense.
In case you missed it, the Idiocracy actor made the grave sin of criticizing the Black Lives Matter movement when he cautioned fellow activists that the message should not morph into “Black Lives Better.”
Considering that we were all told that BLM is a focused attack on police brutality and systemic racism, that shouldn’t be controversial, right? Isn’t this just about ensuring that all Americans should enjoy the same protections and freedoms under the law?
Apparently not.
Immediately after the post went viral, Crews was excoriated by the “woke” left for daring to suggest that some in the BLM camp have taken things too far. Remember: this wasn’t even a repudiation of “Black Lives Matter” itself — by any metric, this was just a friendly reminder to the movement to stay focused on the issues at hand.
But once again, we have to remember that we’re dealing with the Twitter mob, which the Democratic Party, Hollywood, CNN, and the rest of the progressive establishment have long surrendered too.
So now, Crews was challenged to explain himself to Don Lemon on CNN. This should have been a friendly conversation between men who likely agree on almost everything, but that’s not what happened here.
Here’s the Daily Wire with the clip.
