Let me make sure I have this straight so I can be politically correct like the cool kids: "white lives matter", which only singles out one skin hue as worthy of life, is racist, but "black lives matter" which only singles out one skin hue as worthy of life, is NOT racist - is that about right? I wanna be one of the cool kids too, y'know, so I need to know for sure which race I have to promote above all the rest to not be racist!
Are there any other races we need to separate out for good or ill treatment based entirely on their hue? Cause, that's not racist, so long as the hue is correct for whether we are dishing out applause or opprobrium.
One of these days, I expect we'll see black folks getting all indignant about being called "racist" as they scramble to point out that they have white friends, and so cannot be racist...
... and the band will play on.

Diogenes was eating bread and lentils for supper. He was seen by the philosopher Aristippus, who lived comfortably by flattering the king.
Said Aristippus, ‘If you would learn to be subservient to the king you would not have to live on lentils.’ Said Diogenes, ‘Learn to live on lentils and you will not have to be subservient to the king.’
