You deserve ridicule for the comparison alone.

One is an ethnic (i.e.: born-into - not chosen) group that has historically been exploited by white europeans for centuries. The expression "black lives" has only emerged because we still live in a system which continuously devalues the lives of non-white people.

The other group is composed of people who have willingly chosen to uphold that system.

A cop can and should turn in their badge. A black person can't escape their skin color.
