so even when I post saying to make absolutely clear that I donât condone what the cops did, you STILL try to say I condone what the cops did. You are the one being stupid here. Stupid, and WRONG.

Its impressive how youâre trolling style is meant to convince us of how much of an idiot you are.

Is Black Lives Matter a Marxist movement?

IF YOUR TIME IS SHORT
- Black Lives Matter was founded by community organizers. One of the three co-founders said in 2015 that she and another co-founder âare trained Marxists.â
- Black Lives Matters has grown into a national anti-racism movement broadly supported by Americans, few of whom would identify themselves as Marxist.
Backlash against Black Lives Matter includes branding it as Marxist.
The attack has been made in recent weeks by Rudy Giuliani, President Donald Trumpâs personal lawyer; Ben Carson, Trumpâs secretary of Housing and Urban Development; conservative talk show host Mark Levin; and PragerU, which has more than 4 million Facebook followers.
Arenât sure what Marxism is, actually? It was developed by 19th century German philosopher Karl Marx and is the basis for the theory of communism and socialism. âMarxism envisioned the revolutionary overthrow of capitalism by the proletariat (working class people) and eventually a classless communist society,â Encyclopedia Britannica and Oxford Reference say.
These days, Marxism usually means analyzing social change through an economic lens, with the assumption that the rich and the poor should become more equal.
In a recently surfaced 2015 interview, one of the three Black Lives Matter co-founders declared that she and another co-founder âare trained Marxists.â
But the movement has grown and broadened dramatically. Many Americans, few of whom would identify as Marxists, support Black Lives Matter, drawn to its message of anti-racism.
âRegardless of whatever the professed politics of people may be who are prominent in the movement, they donât represent its breadth,â said Keeanga-Yamahtta Taylor, Princeton University African American Studies professor and author of âFrom #BlackLivesMatter to Black Liberation.â
âThere are definitely socialists within the movement, as there have been in every single social movement in 20th century American history and today. But that does not make those socialist movements, it makes them mass movements,â she said.
âTrained Marxistsâ
In a Facebook post labeling Black Lives Matter as a Marxist movement, PragerU included a video interview with Carol Swain, a Black conservative and former professor at Vanderbilt and Princeton universities. She said, âNow, the founders of Black Lives Matter, theyâve come out as Marxists.â
Swain alluded to Black Lives Matterâs three co-founders, who are still featured prominently on the groupâs website â Patrisse Cullors, Alicia Garza and Opal Tometi. Their primary backgrounds are as community organizers, artists and writers. Swain, though, was referring to a newly surfaced interview Cullors did in 2015, where she said:
âWe do have an ideological frame. Myself and Alicia, in particular, are trained organizers; we are trained Marxists. We are superversed on, sort of, ideological theories. And I think what we really try to do is build a movement that could be utilized by many, many Black folks.â
We didnât find that Garza and Tometi have referred to themselves as Marxists. But the book publisher Penguin Random House has said Garza, an author, âdescribes herself as a queer social justice activist and Marxist.â
What Black Lives Matter says
Black Lives Matter was formed in response to the 2013 acquittal of George Zimmerman, a neighborhood watch volunteer who fatally shot Trayvon Martin, an unarmed Black teenager, in Florida. The group calls its three co-founders âradical Black organizers.â
The project started with a mission âto build local power and to intervene when violence was inflicted on Black communities by the state and vigilantes,â the groupâs website says. âIn the years since, weâve committed to struggling together and to imagining and creating a world free of anti-Blackness, where every Black person has the social, economic and political power to thrive.â
Included on its list of beliefs is one that has drawn criticism as being consistent with Marxism:
âWe disrupt the Western-prescribed nuclear family structure requirement by supporting each other as extended families and âvillagesâ that collectively care for one another, especially our children, to the degree that mothers, parents, and children are comfortable.â
A spokesperson for Black Lives Matter; Kailee Scales, managing director at Black Lives Matter Global Network Foundation; and the three co-founders did not reply to our requests for information.
âOn one level, these are just put downs,â University of Massachusetts Amherst economics professor Richard Wolff, author of âUnderstanding Marxism,â told PolitiFact about the attacks on Black Lives Matter.
If people declare themselves Marxists, they are in effect Marxists, but âthere really is no standardâ of what Marxism is, âthereâs no way to verify anything.â
Black Lives Matter today
Itâs important to recognize that movements evolve.
Noting Cullorsâ declaration of being Marxist trained, âone has to take that seriously: if the leadership says it is Marxist, then thereâs a good chance they are,â said Russell Berman, a professor at Stanford University and a senior fellow at its conservative Hoover Institution who has written critically about Marxism.
But âthis does not mean every supporter is Marxist â Marxists often have used âuseful idiots.â And a Marxist movement can be more or less radical, at different points in time,â he said.
Black Lives Matterâs âemphatic support for gender identity politics sets it apart from historical Marxism,â and the goals listed on its website âdo not appear to be expressly anti-capitalist, which would arguably be a Marxist identifier,â Berman added.
The groupâs support is broad.
Even as some Americans express support for socialism, most view it negatively, and few of the supporters would identify themselves as Marxist.
Meanwhile, 50% of registered voters support Black Lives Matter as of mid-July, up from 37% in April 2017, according to Civiqs, an online survey research firm.
In July, the New York Times reported that Black Lives Matter may be the largest movement in U.S. history, as four polls suggest that about 15 million to 26 million people in the United States have participated in demonstrations over the death of Floyd and others in recent weeks. (That does not account for similar protests overseas.)
âI am fairly convinced these are mostly attempts to smear anti-racist activists. I think in some media, âMarxistâ is dog-whistle for something horrible, like âNaziâ, and thus enables to delegitimize/dehumanize them,â Miriyam Aouragh, a lecturer at the London-based Westminster School of Media and Communication, told PolitiFact.
Black Lives Matter âis not an organization, but a fluid movement; it doesnât actually matter if one of its founders was a liberal, Marxist, socialist or capitalist.â

BLM wouldnt even be neccessary if ppl took that same anger and directed it towards the KKK and systemic racism. BLM is literally a âproblemâ they created because they didnât denounce hate and bigotry in the first place

Every action has an equal and opposite reaction.
If you didnât want BLM, how about punishing all these corrupt cops? Minorities can only bear so much pain.
Corona and unemployment simply lowered the activation energy.
I never said the majority of BLM supporters are marxists. Just that the creators of the movement are and I canât support them. I wonât support them.
I can support black people without having to support BLM the movement.
My 2 cents.
