A video surfaced, apparently from the recent Black Lives Matter riots in Minnesota, of a screaming White man, chanting in solidarity with the protesters. This comes after a man was tragically shot by a police officer in Brooklyn Center, Minnesota.
Although we believe that death to be tragic, it seems many are capitalizing on said tragedy to get free stuff by looting, or get attention, or deal with “White Guilt” which is what this man appears to be doing. He starts out in the video screaming at the top of his lungs, “Black Lives Matter”, over and over again.
He then dramatically rips down his mask onto his chin and starts screaming the same chant even louder, over and over again. His voice is cracking very horribly and it almost seems like he’s partially screaming, partially sobbing. Watch the video below:

One man, who appears to have been the original poster of the video, had something to say. We don’t know if this man is a liberal or conservative, or if he supports the Black Lives Matter movement. But what he said seems about right:
“I’m watching a live stream of the protest in MN. A shirtless white man is on his knees by the fence where the police are lined up. He’s screaming, chanting, crying, and snotting; but not for any coherent cause. It’s an exorcism. It’s performance art. It’s all about him.”
