unz | Let’s
assume that Black Lives Matter is not a “social justice” movement, but a
corporate-sponsored public relations vehicle that’s being used to
advance the agenda of elites? Is that too much of a stretch?
And
let’s say that the massive protests that erupted across the country were
not random or spontaneous events as some people seem to think, but part
of a broader strategy to control the headlines by shifting the dominant
“narrative” to race. The death of George Floyd fits perfectly with this
“broader strategy”, as the incident took place 6 months before the
general election, which (conveniently) gave the Democrats enough time
to mount an effective attack on Donald Trump using an issue on which
they feel he is particularly vulnerable. (Race)
Was it all a coincidence?
Maybe
or maybe not. But it’s certainly worth investigating, after all, we’ve
just endured 3 and a half years of relentless fabrications connected to
the Russiagate scam, so the idea that this latest headline-grabbing
fiasco might be, well, fake, is certainly within the realm of
possibility.
So,
let’s see if we can figure out “why” wealthy elites and their giant
charitable foundations would choose to dump millions of dollars into an
organization that claims to be Marxist. Could be that….
- They are genuinely committed to social justice for black people?
- They think “racist” cops are the Number 1 problem facing black people today?
- They think the massive protests are raising consciousness which will have a transformative effect on the country?
- They need a flashy social justice organization (BLM) to divert attention from widening inequality, spiraling unemployment, ballooning poverty, shrinking growth, and the savage restructuring of the economy that is creating a permanent underclass forced to scrape by at food banks, homeless shelters and tent cities that are sprouting up across the country but which are religiously ignored by our prostitute media?
If
you chose Number 4, you guessed right. The protests, demonstrations
and riots are all part of a spectacular “Product Launch”, the most
impressive Madison Avenue-type extravaganza of all-time. BLM has
exploded onto the scene just months before the election eliminating all
of the 10 Top issues listed by Gallup that voters really care about, and
skillfully shifting the public’s attention to race, race relations,
social justice and cops. What an astonishing turnaround! In the old days
we would have called this the “old switcheroo”, an art-form that has
been perfected by BLM (and their Democrat handlers) who have turned the
election on its head by burning down half the country, then claiming
they are the victims. How’s that for twisted logic?
So,
what can we say definitively about BLM? What does the group really
believe and what is it trying to achieve? Having spent a fair amount of
time on their website, I’m still puzzled. The website contains a number
of emotive videos with pulsing background music and lively narration.
But–like everything else with this shadowy group– there doesn’t seem to
be much substance. The emphasis seems to be on appearances rather than
policy, slogans rather than remedies, and catchy monikers (Black Lives
Matter) rather than thoughtful recommendations for real change. So,
where’s the beef?
Who is Black Lives Matter and what do they want?
