It's shocking to me that a neo-marxist-leninist organization, run by individuals who've openly admitted to being trained marxists, with an agenda that is not just openly marxists, but blatantly racist, could ever get even a toe-hold in our nation.

That makes sense, maybe people are noticing that it really made no sense.

I'm not American, but from what I've seen on American media, the whole thing caused a huge increase in racism. Ridiculously racist books became bestsellers, their authors became rich, schools brought back racial segregation, and there's stuff like this which looks like over the top satire but apparently in current year it's a real thing.

In my town?

The local BLM protests ended with a car chase.

The protesters were camped on a local highway near a stoplight. They saw what they thought was a stopped driver making an obscene gesture at them, at which point several protesters rushed to their cars, chased her down, cornered her at her work place, and chewed her and her boss out.

Pretty much all local support for the protesters disappeared at that point, and support for the movement as a whole plummeted after the protestors in the next town were accused of being responsible for making a threat against an area shopping mall.

Within a week or so no one was protesting here in town. They'd all given up and left.

Okay, what organization that promotes justice for black people in this nation do you favor then?

Perhaps people aren't buying into the right-wing echo-chamber view of the group espoused in this post?

What is wrong with ACLU or NAACP and there are others who are not promoting racism, Marxism, or anarchy

Great.
What’s the best thing that you like about the NAACP?

No need to be insulting - implying all I'm doing is parroting someone else's stance on them. :doh:

Besides, people don't need to "buy into" my views or anyone else's - and kudos to them if they don't, but come up with some basic research on their own.

That's true, but it's not the First Amendment that shocks me here.
Be happy to be shocked, because it means that you also have the right to shock others.
