Did I say that ? Is that what you garner from my post?

You don't generally post memes favorable to Biden. 

So I "garnered" that you think urging people to get vaccinated is somehow silly. That was the goal of Biden's message.

Do you think vaccination prevents people from getting COVID, or not?

 I'll post something favorable to Biden when I think he deserves it.

What were the goals here ?

My family & I are vaccinated.

Thank you very much.

Such a difficult question: Do vaccines prevent COVID? 

More: Is Biden encouraging people to vaccinate?

Is that bad or good?  Favorable?

I believe they do or I wouldn't have got vaccinated. 

What was he/she doing in the link I posted ? What was their goal in those speeches ?

Was that good or bad ? Favorable ?

White people as a whole shot MLK?  I was under the impression that it was a single white person, not all of us.  Can a black person not quote Malcom X because "black people" killed him?  

It's disturbing that this type of subtle racism is both accepted and used so casually.  Or are you advocating for collective guilt?  I'm sure Dill and his stance on Islamic terrorism would certainly disagree with such a position.

What was the point of that meme, in your view?

I have no idea of the author's intentions.  Could it be interpreted as white people not being allowed to quote MLK because a white person shot him?  I would think so.  Whether they intended to or not they cast collective guilt on a whole race for the actions of one person.  I would assume that would be something you'd be against given your previous arguments.

In all sincerity, when Dr. King was assassinated he was the most hated person in this country. When you look at political cartoons of the era in mainstream media they portrayed his movement in much the same way BLM was portrayed. On top of that, with how the FBI waged a "war," Hoover's own word for it, against King, it's hard for many people to not see a society as a whole as responsible for his demise.

At least they were mostly right about him being Marxist-Leninist. He was a strong critic of capitalism and espoused many theories put forth by Marx. If only we weren't so scared of those ideas in this country.
