I asked a a black friend about this and he explained to me that of course all lives matter, but that if you look at the number of police encounters with people of color, they disproportionally end up with the person dead. So when they are saying Black Lives Matter, they obviously aren't saying other lives don't. Just that black lives matter too!
They should probably wait until after COVID-19 anyway. With millions struggling and a crazy high unemployment rate, people are going to be hoarding their money, not looking to invest in startups that will likely have a harder time surviving during a pandemic!
I've been following what's happening with #Facebook with interest. Do you think companies are all of a sudden feeling so socially conscious that they will never advertise on Facebook again? I think it's more likely this is a very temporary reaction until things come down. If they made money advertising on Facebook, they'll return soon enough once the media spotlight has shifted elsewhere.
The problem with trying to determine anything statistical related to #COVID-19 is that there's so much conflicting info out there. It seems that anyone who wants to prove a point can find stats to back them up.
