Vue.js founders response to removing Black Lives Matter banner
github.comThe best example I've seen yet, that illustrates why the Black Lives Matter message is important and distinct from saying "All lives matter" in a just way went something like this (paraphrased from memory, and elaborated/expanded from my imagination):
Person: That house is on fire, somebody should do something.
Person2: What about those other houses? They could catch on fire someday as well? Isn't it discriminatory to focus on this one house? All Houses Matter
Person: Yes, all houses matter but this house is on fire Right Now. It needs immediate and specific attention.
Person2: What do you have against those other houses? They are made of wood and they are capable of burning as well.
Person: Are any of them ON FIRE RIGHT NOW?
Person2: No, but they can catch on fire and some of them probably will one day. We should think about all houses and mandate residential sprinklers in future homes.
Person: YES, but RIGHT NOW this house is ON FIRE and somebody should call 911 so they can put the fire out RIGHT NOW.
Person2: Why is this house so much more valuable than all the other houses? What about all of the other houses that have burned down?
Person: Aaargghgghghg!!!!!!!
I am surprised there was nothing in support for hongkong, given that vue founder is chinese.
