I'm part Native American, and while I support BLM, Native Americans are facing the exact same tragic societal problems and discrimination as black people. If GitHub supports BLM they should also support Native American Lives Matter.

I wish people didn't downvote this. I've spent time in the South Dakota Reservations, and if you've seen those, you would know what I'm talking about.

Usually downvoting here means that a comment is too close to the truth or that it deviates from the officially sanctioned topic, here BLM.
So some regard any deviance as an affront or "whataboutism".
Personal anecdotes are also often downvoted, since neither the salon socialists nor the monetarists want to hear them. It is crucial that one stays in one's own bubble.
