Sorry, I never said I want to "overcome" an organization.
English is not my first language and if it sounded that way - it wasn't meant to. What I think is worth 'overcoming' is a sentiment that if one disagrees with the goals of blacklivesmatter organisation it shouldn't mean he/she is racist, insensitive etc. I work for a company from USA and I have been 'outed' for not sharing black lives matter hashtag and whatnot, I don't feel I can safely say that I disagree with some points - I talked to handful of people privately and I met with literal outrage.
I think this is really problematic. |

Truthfully, I don’t spot any logical way to disagree with those stated views without the reasoning being “I don’t like that kind of person.”
I can only assume that you did a lot more than “not sharing” at work. In fact you said so - you went out of your way to talk to people in private just to disagree. People don’t like that kind of thing, doesn’t matter what the subject matter is.
