Any number of claps I can give for this post are inadequate. Thanks for seeing this issue with a certain amount of nuances as well, because what I haven’t heard anyone talk about is the fact that these groups want a war. They want to “be bothered”.

Yes, there is white privilege involved, in that, had they been Black men and women, they would all have been arrested, but any overreaction or violence from the state, is exactly what white protestors are looking for. The only people who win in such a situation is them, because violence against them would prove their point, and thereby, gain them more members. This is much more complicated than the surface idea of them having white privilege. In this case, mockery works much better.
