Can we refer to BLM as a domestic terror organization yet?

Mostly Peaceful

According to Fox News, Rittenhouse is going to appear in a recorded interview tonight, and in it, he says he supports BLM.

He can't do that, can he?

You can support the term "Black Lives Matter" but oppose the BLM organization and movement.

You can support the term "Black Lives Matter" but oppose the BLM organization and movement.

If only because that movement starts at home. You kind of need to be willing to get that in order before you seriously solicit support from outside.

I think black lives matter. Wher I differ from BLM is I'm not a racist and I think black lives matter as much when they are taken by other black lives.

EFZ.

They want to paint anyone who resists BLM the organization a white supremacist. It's all or nothing. No discussion. No dialogue.

The BLM movement is based on a series of fallacies that are easily disproven with statistical data about crime and police shootings of unarmed suspects. In most places though, you are a "racist" if you even try to communicate that data.

The phrase "Black Lives Matter" is meaningless twaddle. White, Hispanic, Jew, Chinese, and Arab lives matter too. But nobody gets outraged when a black guy plows an SUV through a parade and kills innocent white people. "Black Lives Matter" would be more accurately named "White Lives Don't Matter". According to the Left, "All Lives Matter" is a racist phrase. It's clear by now that they don't agree with the logic of "All Lives Matter".

And nobody gives a shit about the black lives that are being lost due to the police retreating from the duties in large cities. That trend, by the way, is going to spread progressively to smaller venues. Jason Whitlock has labeled the movement "White Perpetrators Matter".

It's disheartening to see how so many Americans have fallen hook, line, and sinker for the "White Supremacy" boogeyman scare. And how many Americans can't wake the fuck up and see the real agenda behind BLM, Antifa, and the other Leftist groups that are trying to turn us into a Stalinist state. It's right there in plain sight and people don't see it. Absolutely maddening.

This is interesting and falls into the category of push-back against the crazy shit the left is pushing. In this case it is Critical Race Theory and the labeling of anyone who thinks there is a problem with teaching this in public schools as a racist and/or white supremacist.

Here, you have the Virginia school board pulling out of the National School Board Association because of their refusal to address complaints received by the Virginia School board from parents who oppose such a curriculum. These were forwarded to the NSBA who promptly responded that troublesome parents complaining about what is being taught to their kids are domestic terrorists.

Classic case of the inmates running the asylum...

The NASDAQ has hit another record this morning.

Hyper inflation is happening -- in the price of assets, not the CPI. The market's composite P/E ratio is about 30 -- double the historical average, Home prices are up and I would argue that the prices of digital currency like bitcoin are part of this inflation too. Great for those of us who are middle-aged or retired and have pensions/401Ks. Bad for millenials and zoomers.
