They don't have the same leadership though, or else I would agree

...there's a lot other people protesting than just BLM and antifa. Some Americans just want our corrupt police justice system improved. But of course those attempts are being hijacked by the ones you mentioned

I don't see any evidence of that.

I have seen plenty, watching the live streams of the first nights of the protests. People of all races were very united about the police misconduct issue, and I never heard anyone mention BLM.

Now it's been warped in to a media spectacle though, with the purpose of making all protestors look bad

The protesters make themselves look bad. That's what they're paid to do.

Yes but again there is a difference between the genuine protesters, and the paid protestors that are basically agent provocateurs

No there's not.

Yeah there is, you keep grouping them together as if they're one monolithic block. Kind of a simplistic viewpoint

They operate with a mob mentality so I regard them as such.
