To be blunt, I am tired of hearing how Black Lives Matter and Antifa are terrorist organizations trying to destroy America. If you tell me that then I instantly know you have no clue what you are talking about. And no, for those already getting triggered by this, I am not saying anyone who criticizes Black Lives Matter is wrong. This is aimed at a specific group of people.
The enablers. The followers. The ones who scream that democrat run cities are burning to the ground and Black Lives Matter is syphoning money from donors and want to end America.
First off, no, Democrat run cities are not burning to the ground. Portland and Seattle are not wastelands of people scavenging for food and fighting to the death in Barter Town’s steel dome.
This is Portland. See that little red dot in the gigantic city map? That’s the area where protests have been happening. Protesting, mind you, that includes far right wing militia, Proud Boys, and Trump supporters.
And remember this guy?
This guy is a member of the Aryan Cowboys and he went up to a store in Minneapolis and started smashing in windows with a hammer to incite a riot. He ran away when he saw the cameras rolling.
Do you recognize this guy?
His name is Steven Carrillo. A United States Air Force sergeant and a member of a far-right boogaloo movement. A movement focused on preparing and starting a second civil war. Mr. Carrillo was part of a coordinated attack on law enforcement officers that resulted in two deaths.
Black Lives Matter was blamed for the attacks. The Vice President even condemned BLM for it.
So, again, I am tired of of the narrative that Black Lives Matter and Antifa are the terrorists.
Take a look at the image included with this post. Those men you see there? They were arrested for plotting the assassination of the Governor of Michigan. They were planning to storm the capital building, take hostages, explode bombs, and execute the Governor. And trust me when I tell you, members of Black Lives Matter and Antifa they are not.
This is who they are with:
Remember these guys? They stormed the capital building in Michigan and demanded to end stay-at-home orders. They rushed into the capital and stood in the gallery while politicians worked.
These men, instigated by a tweet from Donald Trump to “Liberate Michigan” stormed the capital building and threatened politicians. Then men just like them plotted to kill the Governor.
Do you see what I am getting at here?
Black Lives Matter is protesting racism and the unjust death of black people across America. And yes, they are angry. But they are not storming capitals with guns, plotting to kill politicians, or…..
Driving their car into peaceful protesters and killing one like this guy in Charlottesville, Virginia.
You remember Charlottesville, right? These guys?
They don’t look like antifa or Black Lives Matter to me. Do they to you?
So please understand this…..Black Lives Matter and Antifa are not the terrorists. Black Lives Matter and Antifa are standing up TO the terrorists. They are marching and protesting to end racism, to fight fascism, to stop all the idiots in the photos posted here.
We all should do the same. Stand up to racism and hate and terrorists. Even if one of them sits in the Oval Office.
