BLM Activist arrested for stealing donations and spending tons at Bubba Gump Shrimp

I am disappointed because minorities in the United States, and the world as a whole are not treated well and under appreciated. The founders of BLM found themselves in a very powerful and vulnerable position and they should exercise a lot of discretion because their poor decisions can impact the very people that they support.

I was not a large fan of some of the founding beliefs of BLM (it is as much an organization for the LGBTQ+ community as it is for the rights of black people) and their economic beliefs, but really I am a white Viking, so what do I know about the struggle of minorities and my opinion is of no relevance.

It seems like the movement just grew too fast and too soon. The sins of the founders of the organization will be used to stain the fact that there are actually real issues that need to be addressed and discussed.

As for Cullors, she has had an extremely difficult life and suffers from fairly serious mental health issues..... I am not excusing her actions, but she likely never should have been making high level decisions. Schizoaffective disorder with paranoia and bi polarity can be debilitating.

 

Money and power is corrupting, and any movement like this that is leaderless without that rare someone to guide a movement past human failings is well going to end up failing most likely.

The end goal of BLM - if they can get cops to respect the lives of black people equally to whites - doesn't seem to have made much headway onto that goal. In fact, it seems it may have dug more people in to whatever side they want to be in. BLM as a whole decided that it was easier to build a movement focusing anger on the police than it was to build a movement seeking a real solution to the problem (although they probably would never acknowledge that).

They made the police their enemy, and that alone was a red flag that they would at the end of the day more about tapping into the anger and gaining benefit from it than actually finding a solution that would in the long run bring an end to the movement.

 

Your postings say a lot about you. Always anti-black, anti-gay, anti anything that helps embrace equality, and anything that's against the white supremacist beliefs of the far right.
