An excerpt from “To Destroy America” in the Manhattan Journal:
The protests that sprang up in the wake of George Floyd’s killing in Minneapolis seemed like spontaneous outpourings of grief and anger. They weren’t entirely. … those operating behind the scenes have prepared for this moment for a long time.
Indeed, the leaders of the Black Lives Matter organizations fueling this summer’s disturbances were trained by self-described Marxist revolutionaries who have long used the plight of black Americans as justification for overthrowing America’s constitutional order. They frankly admit that such “organizing” is the key to their goal of world revolution. …
Melina Abdullah, of BLM’s Los Angeles chapter, told an interviewer that the demonstrations in that city had been strategically planned: “We built kind of an organizing strategy that said, build black community [to] disrupt white supremacy.” Their targets, she said, were the neighborhoods where “white affluent folks” lived. “That’s one of the reasons the marches and the protests were in Beverly Hills.”
A Los Angeles Times story emphasizes the central role that the BLM organization played, saying: “The unprecedented size and scope of recent rallies speaks to how Black Lives Matter has transformed from a small but passionate movement into a cultural and political phenomenon.”
As its Marxist pedigree makes clear, Black Lives Matter is committed to overthrowing our entire system.
The best analogy to BLM that I’ve heard is: BLM is to actual black lives mattering as the Democratic Peoples Republic of Korea (North Korea) is to actual democracy, republics or being for ‘the people.’

BLM and Antifa are the militant wing of the D卐M☭CRAT Party.

Do the homeowners displaying those yard signs understand what BLM actually stands for? Do they really think it’s about making a difference for black lives? Or are they simply trying to appear virtuous? Or are they Marxists themselves?

They are trying to insure their houses don’t get burned or looted. Total virtue signaling. It’s proportionate to the number of bumper stickers on the Prius or Subaru. Bonus points for the “Ready for Hillary”.

Planting a BLM sign in their front yard is a pathetic attempt to salve their white guilt, allowing them to go on living their cozy, upper-middle-class lives while congratulating themselves on their “awareness” of the plight of “marginalized” people. In other words, it’s a pacifier for adults.

BLM looks like it is funded by the Ford Foundation:

among other organizations. I don’t have the links, but Soros’ Open Society and a Rockefeller philanthropic org have made significant investments.
According to Nyota Uhura, a genuine black activist based in Ferguson, MO. BLM rode Ferguson for $33 million and did not distribute any funds to Ferguson, with South St Louis still a pit of despair.

Our own home-grown BLM psychopath…. realize that Nada is old news, but was surprised that Isthmus is now giving her a leg up to voice to spew more obscene racist commentary !

“Justified Destructive Unrest”

See below for a direct cut-and-paste from an 8/27, presently still public post from the author’s FB page:
“A not so hidden warning to the Madison Common Council. There’s a group of young, queer BIPOC that are watching your conduct on the vote coming up on the Civilian Oversight Board and Independent Monitor of the MPD. They will primary you if you do not do the right thing. Do not abstain, do not vote against it, do not be on the wrong side of history. Since a lot of you only feel sympathy when it comes to your careers, I’m gauging that that’s the only language you understand.”
Ripley’s Believe-It-or-Not: The comments from Madisonians, (and I suspect a few Progs), were brutal and telling.

A bit off topic, but I’d like to point out that there were two guys accused of shooting and killing people from the other political side during the riots, Each was claiming self defense, and each had been caught on video. The Portland shooter ran from police for a week and then died in a shootout with the police where he fired 40 or 50 rounds from an assault rifle. The Kenosha shooter ran toward the police, with his weapon held over his head in a universally understood posture of surrender. Of course that just demonstrated white privilege in Kenosha. Apparently there is no white privilege in Portland.
