I’m sure people were saying that and they can speak for themselves. The problem is with extrapolating that thought to “the left”. Now you’ve editorialized it to fit you political views.

While your point is valid, media outlets with known political biases to "the left" have been putting out a lot of pro-reparations stuff since the protests started. Regardless of what the people who are actually protesting want, white folks sure like to talk about reparations.
You just replaced “people” with “media outlets” and made the same over-generalization.
The difference is that political bias of news outlets is a matter of public record, as is the number of articles on reparations before and after the protests started. All objective.
The political bias of news outlets is not an objective measure. It’s completely a matter of perspective.

I have listened to people explain how Fox News is “liberal” and “true conservatives” must watch OANN.
