BLM founder moves to rich white neighborhood

[Gregory Thompson]

Remember when goodwill was not about reward?

I am aware that in the near future that people will look for a selfish reason to be kind to others, and not find one.

Perhaps it is cyclical.

Good deeds died with the Boy Scouts.

Marxist hypocrites aren't subject to criticism.

I assume big tech believes she should be allowed to do as she wishes with the money they've given in exchange for co-operation.

Certainly there seems to be some kind of free speech pecking order, in terms of what can be criticised, and who is allowed to voice criticism. It's a little bit like watching old-school feminists squaring up against trans activists. The old-school feminists don't like the fact that many people now place them lower in the free speech pecking order than the trans activists, who are the new kids on the block. From my point of view, having seen many on the Right lose their platform at the hands of radical Left activists, I am now watching with a kind of strange fascination as the Liberal Left fight amongst themselves over free speech.

Boy scouts, the spies used by Baden Powell in the Boer War.

They want chaos, just not in their neighborhoods. She should move to Minneapolis.

History shows they always devour themselves in the end.

I missed out on that badge.

As they move up the ladder priorities change. This reminds me of advancements in South American countries. Will BLM be paying for security also?

Causing division and stoking the flames of hatred seems to have profited BLM founder Patrice Cullors:

Patrisse Khan-Cullors, the 37-year-old social justice agitator and co-founder of the controversial Black Lives Matter movement, just purchased a home for $1.4 million in Topanga Canyon in Los Angeles.

Actually she purchased a three bedroom two bath ranch house.

Brush fire country. No wonder she got such a good deal.

 

[Chrystal-J]

...at the end of a secluded road. No rioting in her neighborhood.

 

[SilverBear]

Black Lives Matter supporters would be justified in questioning where the $1.4 million came from.

and they could easily find out from sources like foxbiussiness that most of the money for the home came from the sale of her Inglewood home. She purchased that home in 2016 for just over 100,000 and spent the last 5 years renovating it raising it's value to 800,000.

I think BLM supporters already know about her career as a college professor, her consulting work at think tanks, her best selling books and the media production company she founded.

So who is questioning again?

 

[Aldebaran]

Actually she purchased a three bedroom two bath ranch house.

And in the lap of "white privilege".
Now she can watch her minions duke it out from a safe distance.

 

[timothyu]

Will those of Mexican heritage be outside her door demanding restitution in the form of giving them her home? It was their neighbourhood.

The most glaring irony is that she starts up a marxist organization that talks about blacks being so oppressed by white people, and now she lives in the lap of white privilege and surrounded by white neighbors--by choice.

They'd probably have to get past the security gate manned by a white security guard first.

Perhaps she doesn't take her work home with her.

I thought Stan Lee died.

At least the donors to the cause can finally see where their money is going, and who it's benefitting.

“Patrisse Cullors is the Executive Director of Black Lives Matter Global Network Foundation (BLMGNF). She serves in this role in a volunteer capacity and does not receive a salary or benefits." New York Post 4/10/21

Especially in a country where a hustle is an acceptable way of living, calling itself free enterprise. But she no doubt learned from the best. There are tent revival folks kicking themselves.

In Africa they are called "tricksters".
