RE: Footage of the Talks at PDX's MASSIVE BLM March June 8, 2020

They don't want to just abolish the police, they
want to make their intsectional SJW groups the
police. If SJWs get that power, they'll be more
dangerous than the police themselves are. If
you think there's racism now, you'll see a new
racism with SJWs against whites and males.
SJWs have no sense of constitutional rights or
basic natural rights, their minds are poisoned.
Imagine a world where they get police power.
Google: BLM what we believe. It's shocking how
much they're anti-male, father, n-family, cisgen.

This seems to be a certain demographic but I don't think it's the majority. I think creating a bridge between BLM and the more skeptical (such as yourself) is how to avoid that because there are a lot of solid people with solid ideas who are part of this movement too.

Thanks for your comment. I just wrote a post that speaks to some of the complexities of how we think about groups. I think you might find it interesting. I'm not sure there is a 100% right or wrong way to speak to it, and it may depend on how radically a group behaves. At what point should we condemn the behaviors of a group when we know that not 100% of the people in a said group does those things? And at what point is it the responsibility of those who don't want to be associated with what the group is doing, to leave? I'm sure that many people living in Nazi Germany had to ask themselves similar questions, but they may not have had the luxury of a simple exit from the party. I'm sure many cops are faced with this dilemma too, and those are probably the good cops.

Ya, the religion of intersectionality has gotten deep into the minds of just about all left-leaning (or liberal arts college attending) folks under 40, and quite a few over as well.

I also think that assuming everybody (or even a majority) who show up for a BLM march believe the same thing is pretty naive. You can't even find that at a specific political party, much less a gathering based on such a vague concept.

True. Many folks showing up to BLM marches are doing so to show that black lives matter. However, I'm highly doubtful that most of the people in attendance have read into the organization's aims.

Very true!

At the same time, I find it hard to believe that something like BLM is any more "organized" than Anonymous is. They both seem to be flags waved by folks who want their event/movement to seem larger/more grand than it is if it's just them.
