What black people are asking for is to not be murdered. The idea to change the word "blacklist" to "blocklist" instead as a consolation prize comes solely from rich white folks, and is itself condescending and offensive. As with "all lives matter," it's possible to have the best of intentions yet still come across as a patronizing douchebag.
