The problem with BLM as a movement is that you have a movement that could have gotten sympathy with even their detractors if they made it race blind since there have been cases like Daniel Shaver that could have some solidarity with white communities against police abuses.

Instead they turned into some ancomm movement and allied with anarchists that looted minority communities while corrupt officials ran off with the money or gave it to the Dems.

It's kinda a perfect example of modern day activism where the goal is to capitalize off modern grievances while doing nothing or making the problem worse in the process. Trying to fix issues with our societies actually requires effort it's much easier to just destroy. BLM pretty much just got turned into a corporate trend while doing very little for the overall communities it effected. It's all just a brand now.
