Yes it matters. It is about showing support. BVG’s Facebook page has 36K likes, they chose to post it on a platform with 800 followers, their post got barely 50 likes. Each and every person should speak up about the current situations, knowing that they have a massive platform they should support their customers.

Yes, it matters. If you have the energy to post support on Instagram you have the energy to share the same thing EVERYWHERE to make sure all your CUSTOMERS can see it. Maybe even put a popup in game? It is the almost like whispering vs. speaking up in a firm, normal voice. If you are going to speak, then SPEAK! In this case, use the microphone. You don't have to shout, but make sure your customers all get a chance to hear you.

And for anyone who wants to say All Lives Matter (the Karens of the world, I'm lookin' at you!)... well, no one has said any differently. But not all lives are being targeted by the police, racist hate groups, or being racially profiled.

I can walk into a nice store, drive a nice car, walk down the street at night, get pulled over on for speeding, etc etc and not fear for my life. This is white privilege. And every single white person has it.

A black person can walk into a nice store and get racially profiled where they then either get security called on them or they get followed around by the store manager/employees, they can drive a nice car and get pulled over just because they're black & driving a nice car, they can walk down the street and get harassed or have the police called on them because "they look suspicious", they can get pulled over for speeding and think "is this how I'm gonna die today?". This is why BLACK LIVES MATTER is a thing, not all lives matter. Black people are continuously being oppressed and racially profiled and enough is enough, people.

From getting kneeled on, to getting shot in their own home/bed, to getting shot for selling CDs, or getting shot for having a BB gun and someone assuming it was a real gun, to getting shot while holding a cell phone in their own backyard, to having some white lady call the cops & tell them that an African-American man was threatening her life just because he asked her to put her dog on a leash... it's ridiculous. And these are just the instances I can think of, but there are many, many more.

And for anyone who still doesn't get it:
